Genetic and transcriptional dissection of resistance to Claviceps purpurea in the durum wheat cultivar GreenshankNARA Subscribed
Key message Four QTL for ergot resistance (causal pathogen Claviceps purpurea ) have been identified in the durum wheat cultivar Greenshank. Abstract Claviceps purpurea is a pathogen of grasses that infects flowers, replacing the seed with an ergot sclerotium. Ergot presents a significant problem to rye, barley and wheat, in particular hybrid seed production systems. In addition, there is evidence that the highly toxic alkaloi...
Variability of the North Atlantic Oscillation and the Tropical Atlantic dominate the climate of the North Atlantic sector, the underlying ocean and surrounding continents on interannual to decadal time scales. Here we review these phenomena, their climatic impacts and our present state of understanding of their underlying cause. Copyright © 2001 Royal Meteorological Society
