We investigated the anther culture (AC) efficiency of thirteen F<sub>4</sub> combinations of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The genotype dependency was assessed during the induction of the androgenic entities, i.e. embryo-like structures (ELS), regenerated-, green-, albino-, and transplanted plantlets. The number of green plantlets per 100 anthers (GP/100A) varied from 0.36 to 24.74 GP/100A with a mean of 8.31 GP/100A. Albino plantlets (AP) occurred in each combination, ranging from 0.20 to 22.80 AP/100A with an average value of 5.59 AP/100A. Between 25–87.76 doubled haploid (DH) plants per 100 acclimatised plantlets (DH/100ADP), depending on the combination, with a mean of 59.74% were recovered. We have found the highest DH production in the combinations Béres/Midas, Kalász/Tacitus, Béres/Pamier, and Premio/5009. This improves remarkably the choice of basic genetic material in subsequent crossing programmes. These observations emphasise the usability and efficiency of in vitro AC in producing a large number of DH lines for breeding and the applied researches of winter wheat. Although albinism was found in each combination, it was mitigated by the in vitro AC application.

Aim. To analyze the efficiency of using tissues of immature and mature embryos for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation in vitro of new breeding-valuable genotypes of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) for the purpose of their genetic improvement. Methods. Culture of in vitro, extraction and electrophoresis of DNA, PCR analysis. Results. The efficiency of induction of callusogenesis and regeneration of winter wheat shoots was analyzed. The morphogenetic response of callus cultures obtained from different explants under Agrobacterium-mediated transformation in vitro was investigated. Molecular genetic analysis of wheat regenerants for transgenes was performe. Conclusions. The tissues of immature and mature embryos of novel breeding-valuable wheat genotypes are competent explants for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation in vitro. In this case, the tissues of two daily sprouts of mature wheat germ are characterized by higher morphogenetic parameters, which helps to obtain a greater percentage of genetically modified variants. Keywords: Triticum aestivum L., in vitro, Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, immature embryos, mature embryos.

Annette is a soft, white winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar highly to very resistant to 11 tester isolates of Erysiphe graminis f. sp. tritici with seven virulence genes. In its area of adaptation, southwestern Ontario with more than 2700 CHU, it has yield similar to that of the highest yielding recommended cultivars.Key words: Cultivar description, powdery mildew, wheat (winter), Triticum aestivum L.

Ecdysteroids (ECs) are steroid hormones originally found in the animal kingdom where they function as insect molting hormones. Interestingly, a relatively high number of these substances can also be formed in plant cells. Moreover, ECs have certain regulatory effects on plant physiology, but their role in plants still requires further study. One of the main aims of the present study was to verify a hypothesis that fenarimol, an inhibitor of the biosynthesis of ECs in the animal kingdom, also affects the content of endogenous ECs in plants using winter wheat Triticum aestivum L. as a model plant. The levels of endogenous ECs in winter wheat, including the estimation of their changes during a course of different temperature treatments, have been determined using a sensitive analytical method based on UHPLC-MS/MS. Under our experimental conditions, four substances of EC character were detected in the tissue of interest in amounts ranging from less than 1 to over 200 pg·g−1 FW: 20-hydroxyecdysone, polypodine B, turkesterone, and isovitexirone. Among them, turkesterone was observed to be the most abundant EC and accumulated mainly in the crowns and leaves of wheat. Importantly, the level of ECs was observed to be dependent on the age of the plants, as well as on growth conditions (especially temperature). Fenarimol, an inhibitor of a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, was shown to significantly decrease the level of naturally occurring ECs in experimental plants, which may indicate its potential use in studies related to the biosynthesis and physiological function of these substances in plants.
