Wheat and barley are critical food and feed crops around the world. Wheat is grown on more
land area worldwide than any other crop. In the United States, production of wheat and …

DNA markers have enormous potential to improve the efficiency and precision of
conventional plant breeding via marker-assisted selection (MAS). The large number of …

Recognizing the enormous potential of DNA markers in plant breeding, many agricultural
research centers and plant breeding institutes have adopted the capacity for marker …

▪ Abstract Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating disease of wheat and barley
worldwide. Resistant cultivars could reduce damage from FHB. Chinese wheat cultivar …

During the past decade, numerous studies have been published on molecular mapping of
Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance in wheat. We summarize the relevant findings from …

Fusarium head blight (FHB), is a devastating disease of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.),
causing reductions in yield and quality. Marker‐based selection for resistance to FHB and …

Utilization of quantitative trait loci (QTL) identified in bi-parental mapping populations has
had limited success for improving complex quantitative traits with low to moderate …

Abstract Background/Aims: The causes of ulcerative colitis are unknown, although it is
plausible that dietary factors are involved. Case-control studies of diet and ulcerative colitis …
