Cytogenetics and stripe rust resistance of wheat–Thinopyrum elongatum hybrid derivatives
Abstract Background Amphidiploids generated by distant hybridization are commonly used as genetic bridge to transfer desirable genes from wild wheat species into cultivated wheat. This method is typically used to enhance the resistance of wheat to biotic or abiotic stresses, and to increase crop yie...
