Conversion of a RAPD-generated PCR product, containing a novel dispersed repetitive element, into a fast and robust assay for the presence of rye chromatin in wheat
Bulk segregant analysis was used to obtain a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker specific for the rye chromosome arm of the 1BL.1RS translocation, which is common in many high-yielding bread wheat v...

Chromosomal rearrangements in the rye genome relative to that of wheat
An RFLP-based genetic map of Secale Cereale has provided evidence for multiple evolutionary translocations in the rye genome relative to that of hexaploid wheat. DNA clones which have previously been mapped in wh...

Direct Observation of Surface Films on Gold
IT has generally been assumed that naturally occurring surface films do not exist on gold since it has been classically observed that gold is stable in air. Shishakov1,2 and Trillat et al.3 have reported thin fil...
