Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a common disease in cereal crops, such as wheat, barley, and oat Very little is known about FHB on rye in Canada In this project, fall rye spike samples were collected from naturally infected fall rye fields in Manitoba Five Fusarium species were isolated and…Read More
Development and Implementation of a Triticum Technology Platform to Support Public Cereal Breeding Programs in Western Canada. Sub-project A: Development of genomic tools to enhance cereal breeding in Canada
Markerassisted breeding provides an opportunity for wheat breeders to select for important genes well before breeding lines advance to expensive yield and disease nursery testing In the past five years, new molecular marker assays have become available that allow for more rapid screening of…Read More
