COMPARATIVE TRANSCRIPTOME PROFILES OF NEAR-ISOGENIC HEXAPLOID WHEAT LINES DIFFERING FOR EFFECTIVE ALLELES AT THE 2DL FHB RESISTANCE QTL

Comparative Transcriptome Profiles of Near-Isogenic Hexaploid Wheat Lines Differing for Effective Alleles at the 2DL FHB Resistance QTL

Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by the fungus Fusarium graminearum, represents one of the major wheat diseases worldwide, determining severe yield losses and reduction of grain quality due to the accumulation of mycotoxins.The molecular response associated with the wheat 2DL FHB resistance QTL was mined through a comprehensive transcriptomic ana

Inherited influence of low dose gamma radiation on the reproductive potential and spermiogenesis of the cowpea weevil, Callosobruchus maculatus (F) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

The southern cowpea weevil, Callosobruchus maculatus (F) is a severe agriculture pest worldwide.In the current work, newly emerged adult males of C.maculatus have been irradiated with a low dose of 20Gy gamma radiation.The inherited deleterious effects on the fecundity, hatchability, adult emergence, and the sterility percent were recorded for the
