The occurrence in triticale of four different genes causing hybrid necrosis is described: Ne1 and Ne2 in the B genome of wheat and Ner1 and Ner2 in the rye genome. Hybrid necrosis develops due to dominant complementary interaction of two genes. This interaction in triticale, however, may take place
A syndrome similar to gangrenous ergotism was seen in 2 Friesian heifers grazing meadow hay containing perennial rye grass seed heads parasited by an ergot presumed to be Claviceps purpurea. Clinical signs were bilateral hind limb lameness and gangrene. There was angiographic evidence of
High-fat diet (HFD) elevates circulatory fatty acids and influences glucose and fat metabolism. Azelaic acid (AzA), a naturally occurring α,ω-dicarboxylic acid in wheat, rye, barley, oat seeds and sorghum, has been reported to exert antidiabetic effects in HFD-induced type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)
Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.) is a newly cultivated C4 turfgrass that has exceptional salinity tolerance and is highly suited for use on golf courses in coastal areas. In October 2008 and June 2009, circular patches of blighted seashore paspalum ranging from 30 cm to >3 m in diameter
Waitea circinata Warcup and Talbot (also referred to as W. circinata var. circinata) is an important fungal pathogen of amenity turfgrasses and is especially problematic on Poa annua in putting greens in the late spring or early summer. The pathogen was first identified in 2005 from Japan and has
BACKGROUND
Inflammation may be a mechanism by which high postprandial insulin and glucose responses increase the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
OBJECTIVE
We hypothesized that dietary carbohydrates characterized by different postprandial insulin responses may differentially modify cytokine
OBJECTIVE
The objectives of the research were to study how antimony (Sb) chemical form present in the growth medium can affect Sb uptake by plants and estimate effects of Sb on wheat and rye seedlings, in particular, assess variations in concentrations of nutrients resulting from bioaccumulation of
A study was made of the effect of genetic diversity in cultivated barley and rye on seed setting, embryonic development, and viability of barley x rye hybrids grown in vitro and planted. The variation in seed-setting frequency was shown to be determined mainly by vegetation conditions and random
Mixed-linkage (1-->3),(1-->4)-beta-D-glucan with a weight average molecular weight varying between 79,800 and 13,900 was purified from rye. These fractions were used for stimulation of human monocytes to produce tumour necrosis factor (TNF). A mixed-linkage beta-glucan with a weight average
Intergeneric hybrids recovered through plant regeneration from embryo callus culture and their colchicine-induced amphiploids were obtained from a cross of Elymus canadensis with Secale cereale (cv 'Gazeller'). The embryo-callus-regenerated F1 plants grew vigorously to maturity and regrew well after
Hordeum chilense is a South American wild barley with high potential for cereal breeding given its high crossability with other members of the Triticeae. In the present paper we consider the resistance of H. chilense to several fungal diseases and the prospects for its transference to cultivated
Rhynchosporoside, a phytotoxic compound, has been isolated from cultures of Rhynchosporium secalis, the causal agent of scald disease of barley. The toxin is a cello-bioside of 1,2-propanediol. The compound may play some role in symptom expression because it was isolated from diseased plants in
Abutilon theophrasti Medik., previously found to be rather insensitive to benzoxazinoid containing rye mulch and the allelochemical benzoxazolin-2(3H)-one (BOA), can be associated with the zygomycete Actinomucor elegans, whereby the fungus colonizes the root relatively superficially and mainly in
In September 2009, ~40 declining blueberry plants (Vaccinium corymbosum L. 'Jersey') were observed in a poorly drained area of a 30-year-old field near Fennville, MI. The stunted bushes had yellow leaves and defoliation; others were completely dead. The grower reported that the bushes had been
A potyvirus (proposed name of Zea mosaic virus [ZeMV]) isolated from maize in Israel was analyzed by serology, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of capsid proteins, symptomatology, and sequencing. Parts of the nuclear inclusion b, coat protein, and 3' regions were
