USING THE METHOD of "TRITICALE BRIDGE" IN BREAD WINTER WHEAT BREEDING
Last modified: 2017-07-01
Abstract
To transfer rye genes into the bread wheat genome, the "tritical bridge" was used. This method consists in hybridization of triticale with wheat. We generated a significant number of wheat-type lines (wheat revertants), in which the presence of translocations 1B/1R, 1A/1R was confirmed by electrophoresis. Among these lines, sources of economically valuable traits were distinguished: of frost tolerance and winter hardiness, drought resistance, disease resistance, high protein and gluten contents (18% and 35%, respectively). The created lines should be used in subsequent hybridization with bread winter wheat.
