Book Inheritance of Resistance to Septoria Tritici Blotch in the Winter Wheat Doubled Haploid Population Solit  r X Mazurka

Download or read book Inheritance of Resistance to Septoria Tritici Blotch in the Winter Wheat Doubled Haploid Population Solit r X Mazurka written by Christiane Kosellek and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a doubled haploid population of the two winter wheat cultivars Solitär (resistant) and Mazurka (susceptible) inheritance of Septoria tritici blotch (STB) resistance was analyzed. In the seedling stage isolate-specific quantitative trait loci (QTL) were mapped on chromosomes 3A, 1B, 4A, 3B, 3D und 6B. QTL specific for necrotization of leaf area and pycnidia production were localized on chromosomes 1A, 4B and 3B, 6B, respectively. Under natural infection in the field plant height correlated negative with disease severity. With plant height as co-variable five QTL specific for resistance were identified on chromosomes 5A, 6D and 7D. Although, the contributions of QTL x QTL interactions to the total variance were generally low a complex inheritance of STB resistance can be assumed. None of the isolate-specific QTL detected in the seedling stage were verified in the field trials under natural infection.

Book Breeding for Disease Resistance

Download or read book Breeding for Disease Resistance written by R. Johnson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an increasing need for an understanding of the fundamental processes involved in the mechanisms by which disease resistances are introduced into crop plants. This book provides a wide-ranging coverage of the successes and failures of the classical techniques; it describes the advances towards modern technology and addresses the problems of pathogen variation. Crop plants that are considered include: cereals (wheat, barley, rice), potatoes, vegetables and soft fruits.

Book Durability of Disease Resistance

Download or read book Durability of Disease Resistance written by Th. Jacobs and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-02-02 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From February 24 -28, 1992 an international symposium on Durability of Disease Resistance was held at the International Agricultural Centre in Wageningen, the Netherlands. The symposium, organized by the Department of Plant Breeding of Wageningen Agricultural University and the Centre for Plant Breeding and Repro duction Research, CPRO-DLO, was part of the DGIS funded programme Durable Resistance in Developing Countries. Without any form of prevention or protection nearly all crops will be seriously or even severely damaged by a range of pathogens. In modern agriculture man has been able to control many if not most pathogens using i) pesticides, ii) phyto sanitary methods such as control of seed and plant material in order to start a crop disease free, iii) agronomic measures such as crop rotation, iv) disease resis tance or combinations of these measures. Over the years the use of pesticides has increased enormously and so did the pro blems associated with pesticide use, such as environmental pollution and building of resistance and tolerance to these pesticides in the pathogens. The use of resis tance too increased strongly over the years and here too problems arose.

Book Mechanisms of Resistance to Plant Diseases

Download or read book Mechanisms of Resistance to Plant Diseases written by R.S. Fraser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant resistance to pathogens is one of the most important strategies of disease control. Knowledge of resistance mechanisms, and of how to exploit them, has made a significant contribution to agricultural productivity. However, the continuous evolution of new variants of pathogen, ana additional control problems posed by new crops and agricultural methods, creates a need for a corresponding increase in our understanding of resistance and ability to utilize it. The study of resistance mechanisms also has attractions from a purely academic point of view. First there is the breadth of the problem, which can be approached at the genetical, molecular, cellular, whole plant or population lev~ls. Often there is the possibility of productive exchange of ideas between different disciplines. Then there is the fact that despite recent advances, many of the mechanisms involved have still to be fully elucidated. Finally, and compared with workers in other areas of biology, the student of resistance is twice blessed in having as his subject the interaction of two or more organisms, with the intriguing problems of recognition, specificity and co-evolution which this raises.
