    Yield evaluation of a gene for boron tolerance using backcross-derived lines

    Wheat varieties show differential responses to high concentrations of soil boron and genetic studies have shown a single major gene, Bo1, is responsible for the higher level of boron tolerance found in varieties ...

    Tolerance to high concentrations of boron for the amphiploid of Triticum aestivum × Agropyron elongatum

    The response to high concentrations of B in soil was compared for Triticum aestivum L. (vars. Chinese Spring and Halberd) and the amphiploid of Chinese Spring × Agropyron elongatum (Host). The tolerance of the th...

    Major gene control of tolerance of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to high concentrations of soil boron

    The genetic control of tolerance of wheat to high concentrations of soil boron was studied for five genotypes. Each genotype represented one of five categories of response to high levels of boron, ranging from...

    Selection parameters for assessing the tolerance of wheat to high concentrations of boron

    Three wheat genotypes known to differ in response to high concentrations of boron in the field were grown under controlled glasshouse conditions in soil containing 0, 20 and 60mgkg-1 applied boron. Plant growth w...

    Responses of wheat and barley genotypes to toxic concentrations of soil boron

    The growth and yield of seven wheat and two barley cultivars or lines, previously found to show different degrees of boron tolerance under field conditions, were compared in a pot experiment at a range of soil...

    Effects of copper deficiency on root nodules of subterranean clover

    Effects of copper deficiency on the development of subterranean clover root nodules were studied. These included a depression of the bacteroid content, an accumulation of starch in the invaded cells and a redu...
