Open AccessInheritance and identification of molecular markers associated with a novel dwarfing gene in barley
Dwarfing genes have widely been used in barley breeding program. More than 30 types of dwarfs or semidwarfs have been reported, but a few has been exploited in barley breeding because pleiotropic effects of dw...

Relationship of genetic distance and hybrid performance in hybrids derived from a new photoperiod-thermo sensitive male sterile wheat line 337S
Heterosis has been exploited in many crops and made a significant contribution to the world food supply. Genetic distance (GD) is one of valuable criteria for selecting parents in hybrid breeding. The objectiv...

Identification of QTL underlying somatic embryogenesis capacity of immature embryos in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.)
High embryogenesis capacity of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) in vitro possessed potential for effective genetic engineering and tissue culture. The objects of this study were to identify quantitative trait loc...

Inheritance of genes controlling supernumerary spikelet in wheat line 51885
The supernumerary spikelet character of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an abnormal spike with extra spikelet per spike. Supernumerary spikelet line 51885 was derived from the cross between octoploid Tritic...

Identification of QTL underlying the resistance of soybean to pod borer, Leguminivora glycinivorella (Mats.) obraztsov, and correlations with plant, pod and seed traits
Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) pod borer (Leguminivora glycinivorella (Mats.) Obraztsov) (SPB) results in severe loss in soybean yield and quality in certain regions of the world, especially in Northeastern China...

Genetic diversity of rbcL gene in Elymus trachycaulus complex and their phylogenetic relationships to several Triticeae species
Elymus trachycaulus complex species are known for their morphological variability, but little is known about their genetic basis. The phylogenetic relationships among the E. trachycaulus complex, and their system...

Molecular evolution and genome divergence at RPB2 gene of the St and H genome in Elymus species
Molecular evolution of the second largest subunit of low copy nuclear RNA polymerase II (RPB2) in allotetrploid StH genomic species of Elymus is characterized here. Our study first reported a 39-bp MITE stowaway ...

Molecular diversity and relationships of North American Elymus trachycaulus and the Eurasian E. caninus species
The morphological similarity of Elymus trachycaulus to the Eurasian E. caninus has often been noted. This has lead to controversial and contradicting taxonomic treatments. Nevertheless, there has been no systemat...

Quantitative trait loci analysis for the developmental behavior of Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.)
Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) identified so far in soybean were mainly derived in the final stage of plant development, which did not apply to the exploitation of genetic effects that were expressed during a ...

Genetic relationships of tetraploid Elymus species and their genomic donor species inferred from polymerase chain reaction-restriction length polymorphism analysis of chloroplast gene regions
The genetic relationships of 38 individuals from 13 Elymus tetraploid species, two Pseudoroegneria species and one Hordeum species were examined using polymerase chain reaction-restriction length polymorphism ana...

Molecular Markers Associated with Plant Regeneration from Shoot Meristem Cultures Derived from Germinated Corn (Zea mays L.) Seeds
A number of studies have shown that regeneration from immature embryo and anther cultures is genetically determined in corn and is controlled by a few genes (Willman et al., 1989). In addition, several RFLPs m...
