    Development and dissection of diagnostic SNP markers for the downy mildew resistance genes Pl Arg and Pl 8 and maker-assisted gene pyramiding in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)

    Diagnostic DNA markers are an invaluable resource in breeding programs for successful introgression and pyramiding of disease resistance genes. Resistance to downy mildew (DM) disease in sunflower is mediated by

    Sequence organization and evolutionary dynamics of Brachypodium-specific centromere retrotransposons

    Brachypodium distachyon is a wild annual grass belonging to the Pooideae, more closely related to wheat, barley, and forage grasses than rice and maize. As an experimental model, the completed ge...

    A strategy for enhancing recombination in proximal regions of chromosomes

    As a rule, recombination in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is low in proximal and high in distal regions of chromosomes. Recombination may be enhanced in proximal regions by using deletion (del) chromosomes d...

    Recombination in an isochromosome preferentially occurs between cis isochromatids

    An isochromosome has identical arms attached to the same centromere. At the pachytene stage of meiosis, it has four isochromatids and recombination can occur either between cis isochromatids (attached to the sam...

    Synaptonemal complex pairing and metaphase I association in a telo-substituted telotrisomic of rye (Secale cereale L.)

    The synaptonemal complexes in pollen mother cells (PMCs) of rye in which one chromosome 1R was replaced by the two corresponding telocentrics, and where one additional telocentric 1RS was present, showed appro...
