Abstract Knowledge of the extent of phenotypic variability, genetic diversity and the realized
breeding progress is central for the optimum design of breeding programmes, but little …

Genetic similarities (GS) based on molecular markers are well suited for direct exploration of
relationships within a germplasm pool. The objectives of this study were to:(i) assess the …

Heterotic groups are an essential prerequisite for efficient hybrid breeding. The present
study in winter triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack) was performed to (i) evaluate the …

Abstract Triticale (X Triticosecale Wittm.) is a hybrid derived by crossing wheat (Triticum sp.)
and rye (Secale sp.). Till date, only a limited number of simple sequence repeat (SSRs) …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the most important crop for Turkey, which is also one of the
