Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the most important crop for Turkey, which is also one of the
gene centers of wheat (Gökgöl 1939; Vavilov 1950; Harlan 1971; Ozkan et al. 2002) …

Utilization of modern breeding techniques for developing high yielding and uniform plant
types ultimately narrowing the genetic makeup of most crops. Narrowed genetic makeup of …

Yellow rust (stripe rust), caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is one of the most
destructive foliar diseases of wheat in Egypt and worldwide. In order to identify wheat …

Under changing climate, water scarcity and frequent incidence of diseases like stripe rust
pose the biggest threat to sustainable crop production which jeopardizes nutritional security …

EST-SSR markers, derived from the A and B genomes of wheat were used to identify
molecular markers associated with yellow rust resistance. For this purpose, bulk segregant …

ABSTRACT SSR, RAPD, ISSR and SRAP markers have been used to examine the genetic
and epigenetic diversity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) germplasm. PCR amplification of the …
