Winter Wheat Cultivars

Abstract Dry hot wind is one of the main prevailing agro-meteorological disasters during the grain filling stage of winter wheat in Northern China. In this study, three major winter wheat cultivars, including Henong 6119 (HN6119), Gaoyou 5218 (GY5218), and Jimai 325 (JM325) in Hebei Province were selected to analyze their responses to dry hot wind. Under the combined conditions of field natural dry hot wind and artificially simulated dry hot wind experiments, we characterized the three cultivars’ physiological parameters as affected on the day with dry hot wind, and on the day before and after hot wind conditions. Comparative analysis of different correlations among the three cultivars’ physiological parameters toward dry hot wind showed that, during field nature dry hot wind conditions, HN6119 showed less water loss of leaves by reducing the stomatal conductance and transpiration rate, while GY5218 and JM325 showed more water loss of leaves by increasing the stomatal conductance and transpiration rate. The net photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, and stomatal conductance of HN6119 were recovered during the recovery time after dry hot wind conditions, while these parameters of GY5218 and JM325 showed a continuous decreasing trend. During dry hot wind day, HN6119 showed significant positive correlation between physiological parameters, while GY5218 and JM325 showed poor correlation. The stress of severe dry hot wind on thousand kernel weight (TKW) of HN6119, GY5218 and JM325 is 0.01%, 3.51%, 3.57%, respectively. The stress of mild dry hot wind on thousand kernel weight (TKW) of HN6119, GY5218 and JM325 is 0.36%, 8.12%, 8.84%, respectively. In summary, HN6119 showed strong resistance to dry hot wind, followed by GY5218, and JM325; JM325 had the weakest resistance to dry hot wind.

Abstract Grain yield is closely associated with kernel weight. Cell wall invertase (CWI) and sucrose synthase (SUS) are one of the most important enzymes for sink tissue development and carbon partition, and has a high association with kernel weight. Allellic composition of the TaCwi-A1 and TaSus2-2В loci was tested in 79 winter wheat cultivars using a co-dominant markers CWI21- CWI22, which amplified 404 or 402-bp and Sus2-185/589H2- Sus2-227/589L2, which amplified 423 or 381-bp fragments in different wheat accessions respectively. Some samples carried the mutation in the TaCwi-A1 locus that negatively affects thousand-kernel weight (TKW) were shown to have TKW higher than the cultivars and lines that do not have this mutation in their genomes and despite the significant differences in TKW (from 39,4 to 59,8 g), all investigated varieties possess Hap- L haplotype. It can be attributed to the fact that the TaCwi-A1 and TaSus2-2В are only two of the genes associated with kernel weight and its allelic composition analysis cannot explain all phenotypic variances.

We investigated the stability of 15 traits of quality in 45 winter wheat cultivars grown in two seasons in the Borovce locality of Slovakia. The gluten swelling, SDS test, starch content, α-amylase (α-AMS) activity, and volume weight were affected simultaneously by the cultivar, growing year, and the country of origin. Other traits were affected by only one or two of these factors. The English cultivars, when compared to the Slovak cultivars, demonstrated lower gluten swelling and volume weight, a higher α-AMS activity, and a longer vegetative period. We observed a higher α-AMS activity in the Czech, a lower starch content in the Austrian, and a longer vegetative period in the German cultivars. In the Hungarian cultivars, we detected a lower starch and a reduced amylose contents. The most stable quality traits in both growing years were identified in the Ilona (gluten swelling), Spartakus (SDS test), Cubus (falling number), Komfort (starch), GK Margit (amylose), GK Verecke (α-AMS), Saturnus (volume weight), and Vanda (thousand-kernel weight) cultivars. Other traits, such as protein, wet gluten, sedimentation index, grain hardness, grain weight per spike, grain yield, and duration of the vegetative period, were strongly affected by the environment (growing year). The foreign cultivars such as the Komfort (AUT), Saturnus (AUT), GK Rába (HUN), GK Csongrád (HUN), Silvius (AUT), GK Bagoly (HUN), and GK Forrás (HUN) were superior for growing in Slovakia. Each of them had more quality traits that were stable, comparable, and ultimately better than the control Slovak cultivars.

Fhb Resistance

Fifty Triticum aestivum genotypes, including winter wheat cultivars from Martonvásár, were tested for fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance under artificially inoculated conditions. Field resistance, kernel infection, and the relative yield components (test weight, thousand kernel weight and kernel weight/heads) were examined following infection with Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum isolates. Using data from two years, a number of Martonvásár varieties with above-average resistance to FHB were identified. On the basis of field infection, AUDPC values close to those of resistance sources were calculated for the variety Mv Emese, while 67.5% of the varieties tested had values which did not differ significantly from those of the control variety Arina. The yield components examined were modified substantially by artificial FHB infection. The thousand kernel weight and test weight of the variety exhibiting the greatest degree of infection were only 21.14% and 25.58%, respectively, of the untreated control. In one case the decline in the kernel weight/head was more than 90%. The results of multivariable statistical analysis indicated that among the Hungarian wheat genotypes, Bánkúti 1201, B9086-95 (a line derived from Bánkúti 1201), Mv Emese, Martonvásári4 and Mv Táltos could be grouped with the best sources of resistance. The experimental data revealed wide genetic variability for FHB resistance in the Martonvásár breeding stock.
