Detection and validation of disease resistance QTL in wheat
(PhD Thesis;2018:02, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Powdery mildew (PM), Fusarium head blight (FHB) and Septoria leaf blotch (SNB) are devastating wheat diseases. Breeding of disease resistant varieties is an economical and environmentally friendly approach and is given ... -
Dormancy in spring wheat : field and greenhouse trials
(Master thesis, 2014-08-12)Resistance to preharvest sprouting is an important trait for Norwegian spring wheat cultivation. Sprouting in the field result in low quality grains which is unsuited for baking. Good dormancy after maturation is the most ... -
Genome-wide association mapping of Fusarium head blight resistance in Norwegian spring and winter wheat lines
(Master thesis, 2015-07-16)Fusarium graminearum is a species of fungal pathogens known to cause Fusarium head blight impacting grain quality and yield of Norwegian wheat. The genetic background of this disease have been studied over the past two ... -
Phenotypic and genetic studies of waterlogging tolerance in wheat and barley
(PhD Thesis;2018:50, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Stress caused by waterlogging may have considerable impact on yields of wheat, barley and other crops. As climate change projections include increased precipitation in parts of the world, one can expect an increasing demand ... -
Resistance to Septoria nodorum leaf blotch and the importance of sensitivity to necrotrophic effectors in Norwegian spring wheat
(PhD Thesis;2017:63, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Wheat is one of the most important food crops worldwide. In normal years, the proportion of food quality wheat grown in Norway exceeds 50 %. However, the quality and yield can be significantly challenged by unfavorable ... -
Using genome-wide associations, predictions, and selection to improve fusarium head blight disease resistance in wheat
(PhD thesis;2023:39, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Wheat is a well-adapted hexaploid crop and is a staple food for most parts of the world, commonly called bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The history of first cultivation of wheat dates back to 10 000 years ago. It is ...
