Review and New Progress in Wheat Wide Hybridization for Improving the Resistance to Biotic and Abiotic Stresses
Since 1956, our group has been working on the wide hybridization between wheat and tall wheatgrass (Thinopyrum ponticum Liu & Wang, 2n = 70). During the past 56 years, we developed a set of partial amphiploids (o...

Molecular cytogenetic identification of a novel dwarf wheat line with introgressed Thinopyrum ponticum chromatin
Novel dwarfing germplasms and dwarfing genes are valuable for the wheat breeding. A novel semi-dwarf line, 31505-1, with reduced height compared with its common wheat parent, was derived from a cross between c...
