Characterization of TaCOMT genes associated with stem lignin content in common wheat and development of a gene-specific marker
Published 2019-05-01Get full textStem lignin content (SLC) in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) contributes to lodging resistance. Caffeic acid 3-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is a key enzyme involved in lignin biosynthesis. Characterization of TaCOMT genes and development of gene-specific markers could enable marker-assisted select...

Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci for Adult Plant Resistance to Stripe Rust in German Wheat Cultivar Ibis
Published 2012-04-01Get full textThe German wheat cultivar Ibis has excellent adult plant resistance (APR) to stripe rust in Gansu, a hotspot for stripe rust in China. To elucidate the genetic basis of APR to stripe rust in Ibis, 237 F3 lines derived from the cross Ibis/Huixianhong were evaluated at Tianshui, Gansu, in the 2008–200...
