Covariation for microsatellite marker alleles associated with Rht8 and coleoptile length in winter wheat
(Crop Science Society of America, 2004-07)Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars with greater coleoptile elongation are preferred in low-precipitation dryland regions and in early-planted management systems of the Great Plains, but the presence of GA3 (gibberell ... -
Genome of Diuraphis noxia, a global aphid pest of small grains
(BioMed Central, 2015-06-05)Background: The Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia Kurdjumov, is one of the most important pests of small grains throughout the temperate regions of the world. This phytotoxic aphid causes severe systemic damage symptoms ... -
Novel analytical method, Birth Date Selection Mapping, detects response of the Angus (Bos taurus) genome to selection on complex traits
(BioMed Central, 2012-11-09)Background: Several methods have recently been developed to identify regions of the genome that have been exposed to strong selection. However, recent theoretical and empirical work suggests that polygenic models are ... -
Precisely mapping a major gene conferring resistance to Hessian fly in bread wheat using genotyping-by-sequencing
(BioMed Central, 2015-02-15)Background: One of the reasons hard red winter wheat cultivar 'Duster' (PI 644016) is widely grown in the southern Great Plains is that it confers a consistently high level of resistance to biotype GP of Hessian fly (Hf). ...
