New winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) × winter barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) hybrids produced using cultivated varieties (wheat 'Martonvásári 9 kr1'(Mv9 kr1) × barley 'Igri', Mv9 kr1 × 'Osnova', 'Asakazekomugi' × 'Manas') were multiplied in tissue culture because of the high degree of sterility and then pollinated with wheat to obtain backcross progenies. Meiotic analysis of the hybrids Mv9 kr1 × 'Igri' and 'Asakazekomugi' × 'Manas' and their in vitro regenerated progenies with the Feulgen method revealed 1.59 chromosome arm associations per cell in both initial hybrids. The number of chromosome arm associations increased after in vitro culture to 4.72 and 2.67, respectively, in the two combinations. According to the genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) analysis, wheat-barley chromosome arm associations made up 3.6% of the total in the initial Mv9 kr1 × 'Igri' hybrid and 6.6% and 16.5% of the total in in vitro regenerated progenies of the 'Asakazekomugi' × 'Manas' and Mv9 kr1 × 'Igri' hybrids, respectively. The demonstration by GISH of wheat-barley chromosome pairing in the hybrids and especially in their in vitro regenerated progenies proves the possibility of producing recombinants between these two genera, and thus of transferring useful characters from barley into wheat. In vitro conditions caused an increase in chromosome arm association frequency in both combinations and in fertility in some regenerants.Key words: wheat, barley, intergeneric hybridization, meiotic chromosome pairing, GISH.

Triticum aestivum 'Chinese Spring' mutant ph1b lacking the major wheat homoeologous pairing prevention gene was pollinated with Hordeum vulgare line 'Tuleen 346,' a triple interchange homozygote with all chromosomes distinct from one another. Two wheat-like hybrids, one with 28 and one with 31 chromosomes, were produced. Homoeologous chromosome pairing occurred in the hybrids, but no evidence of interspecific chromosome pairing was observed. Both hybrids were sterile, but pollination of the 28-chromosome hybrid with 'Chinese Spring' pollen gave a few seeds. Within the F1 hybrids, chromosome numbers varied slightly, especially among pollen mother cells, and barley showed partial dominance of nucleolus organizer regions in somatic cells. The 31-chromosome hybrid was awned possibly indicating extra dosage of a homoeologous group-2 chromosome.Key words: wheat, barley, hybrid, homoeologous pairing.

A pathogen transmitted by the eriophyid mite, Aceria tulipae, infects a number of Gramineae producing symptoms similar to wheat spot mosaic virus (1). An electron microscope study of leaf ultrastructure from systemically infected Zea mays, Hordeum vulgare, and Triticum aestivum showed the presence of ovoid, double membrane bodies (0.1 - 0.2 microns) in the cytoplasm of parenchyma, phloem and epidermis cells (Fig. 1 ).

Hybrids were obtained by pollinating Hordeum vulgare cv. Betzes with Agropyron caninum (4x) and A. dasystachyum (4x) at frequencies of 1.4 and 6.1% of pollinated florets, respectively. The hybrids were sterile and phenotypically resembled the paternal parent, except for floret structure which was intermediate between the parental types. Chromosome pairing at meiosis was very low and thus provided no indication of homoeology between parental genomes. Abnormal meiotic chromosome behavior in meiocytes that occurred in sectors on the 'Betzes' × A. dasystachyum hybrid was attributed to abnormal spindle fibre function.Key words: intergeneric hybrids, Hordeum vulgare, Agropyron caninum, Agropyron dasystachyum.

La presente investigación se realizó en el año 1996, en el distrito Cot, cantón Oreamu-no, provincia Cartago. La topografía de la finca es irregular y se ubica a una altitud de 2.100 msnm. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la adaptabilidad de una colección de 13 ce-reales forrajeros, nueve variedades de Avena (Avena sativa), tres de Trigo (un Triticum se-cale y dos Triticum aestivum) y una de Cebada (Hordeum vulgare). El diseño experimental utilizado, fue de bloques completos al azar, con tres repeticiones, representando cada cul-tivar un tratamiento. Las variables evaluadas fueron: cobertura, altura, plagas, producción de biomasa y valor nutritivo. En cuanto a las variables cobertura y altura los valores fueronaltos en todos los cultivares cosechados, superiores a 90% y 75 cm respectivamente, losTriticum y la Hordeum vulgare fueron inferiores a las avenas en ambos aspectos. La única enfermedad que se presentó fue la Puccinia sp. eliminando por completo las avenas Ne-huén, Dula, Gaviota y Llaofén y afectando levemente (5% del follaje afectado) los cereales Culgoa II, Águila y Triticum secale. Los demás cereales no fueron dañados por ninguna pla-ga. La producción de biomasa en los diferentes cultivares osciló en un rango de 6,8 y 15,5 t/ha/corte. El análisis de varianza para esta variable mostró diferencias entre cultivaresP=0,01 y P=0,001 para t/ha/corte y tasa de crecimiento respectivamente. Según los altos rendimientos de materia seca, adecuado valor nutritivo y ausencia de plagas, se puede con-cluir que los cereales que mejor se adaptaron a la zona en estudio fueron las avenas Riel, Nobby y Amby. Se debe continuar investigando con los cultivares sobresalientes bajo pas-toreo y en sustitución de alimentos balanceados.
