A well-preserved permineralized osmundaceous fern was discovered from the Middle Jurassic Tiaojishan Formation of Beipiao,Liaoning Province,China.The rhizome is about 50 cm high and 35-41 cm in diameter and can be att...
Thermo-sensitive genie male sterile (TGMS) rice has a number of desirable characteristics for hybrid rice production. Many studies have demonstrated that the sterility of TGMS rice is controlled by a single recessive ...
Tsunewaki et al. studied 43 cytoplasm specialities of 35 species of Triticum and Aegilops. According to their results, 4 of these cytoplasms (G, S^v, D^2 and M^u) were considered most applicable to the study of wheat ...

A male sterile form of common wheat(Triticum aestivum) was found in China and it has been shown that the sterility is controlled by a single, dominant gene. The dominant Ms2 gene for male sterility (originally Tal ass...
The infection of pathogens to the host and the toxin produced by them can cause rapid and drastic changes in the permeability of plant cells.Measuring the differences in the electrical resistance of plant tissues is a...
In order to accelerate the progress in research of hybrid wheat, it is necessary to find out new source of male sterile cytoplasm. Aegilops squarrosa cytoplasm has been considered ideal material for producing new male...
The technique of tissue culture for cereal improvement has attracted close attention of many scientists. But successful application in plant breeding and genetic manipulation requires not only the initiation and growt...
Regeneration of haploid plants from wheat pollen cells by the anther culture method was long ago well accomplished by Ouyang et al. Thereafter, it has been used in wheat breeding. Hu Daofen et al. have made contributi...
Crossing barley with wheat is of great importance in both genetic research and breeding practice. Substantiated barley-wheat hybrids were first obtained by Kruse in 1973 by means of inoculating hybrid embryos on barle...
At present, gossypol as the male oral contraceptive has been employed for clinical trial. Although it is an effective male antifertility agent, yet there are some adverse effects such as hypokalemia and reversibility ...
