Variation in productivity traits and their correlations were studied in 16 hybrid lines of <em>Aegilops kotschyi</em> Boiss. and <em>A. variabilis</em> Eig. with <em>Triticum aestivum</em> L. and their parental components. In comparison to the wheat cultivars, most of the hybrid lines exhibited higher tillering, whereas the length of the main tiller and spike rachis were similar to the values for the wheat cultivars. The values of other traits, such as basal stem diameter, main spike density, fertility, and a 1,000-grain weight in hybrid lines were varied. In some lines, the value of these traits was higher or similar to that of wheat cultivars, whereas in others it was lower. Among the hybrids, [(<em>A. kotschyi</em> × ‘Rusałka’) × ‘Begra’] × ‘Turnia’ was distinguished in having the greatest basal stem diameter, longest spikes, highest fertility, and greatest 1,000-grain weight. The hybrid lines exhibited greater variation in the analyzed traits than did the wheat cultivars. In the hybrid lines, the main tiller length and basal stem diameter were positively correlated with fertility and 1,000-grain weight, whereas in wheat cultivars there were negative correlations for these traits. The results confirmed that wide hybrids can be used to eliminate the negative correlations between productivity traits in wheat. Analysis of clusters in terms of productivity traits provided information on the similarity and diversity of hybrid lines, which may prove useful in their further selection.

An experiment was carried out to study the grain growth pattern of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars and to find out association and linear regression of spike weight and grain weight with time. Spike characters indicated that cultivar differences were significant in all the cases with a few exceptions. Linear regression and correlation coefficients revealed that the association between both spike weight and grain weight with time were highly positively significant among the cultivars but their regression coefficients were non- significant.

We evaluated the effect of endobacteria Bacillus subtilis (strain 10–4) as a co-inoculant for promoting plant growth and redox metabolism in two contrasting genotypes of Triticum aestivum L. (wheat): Ekada70 (drought tolerant (DT)) and Salavat Yulaev (drought susceptible (DS)) in early stages of adaptation to drought (12% PEG–6000). Results revealed that drought reduced growth and dramatically augmented oxidative stress markers, i.e., hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and lipid peroxidation (MDA). Furthermore, the depletion of ascorbate (AsA) and glutathione (GSH), accompanied by a significant activation of ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR), in both stressed wheat cultivars (which was more pronounced in DS genotype) was found. B. subtilis had a protective effect on growth and antioxidant status, wherein the stabilization of AsA and GSH levels was revealed. This was accompanied by a decrease of drought-caused APX and GR activation in DS plants, while in DT plants additional antioxidant accumulation and GR activation were observed. H2O2 and MDA were considerably reduced in both drought-stressed wheat genotypes because of the application of B. subtilis. Thus, the findings suggest the key roles in B. subtilis-mediated drought tolerance in DS cv. Salavat Yulaev and DT cv. Ekada70 played are AsA and GSH, respectively; which, in both cases, resulted in reduced cell oxidative damage and improved growth in seedlings under drought.

Composition of gliadins encoded by Gli-D1 allele as well polymorphisms of Gli-D1 allele investigated in 25 wheat cultivars by using acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Electrophoregrams obtained by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were used for estimation variability of gliadin components and identification of gliadin blocks. Five gliadin blocks encoded by different alleles at Gli-D1 locus were apparently expressed and identified. Gliadin blocks differed according to number of components and their molecular mass. Variability of determined block components indicates that existing polymorphisms of gliadins alleles. Frequency of identified 5 alleles at Gli-D1 locus was in ratio from 4% to 52%. The highest frequency of b allele and the of g allele was found.

Main Tiller

The courses of the various vascular bundles in the nodes of the main tiller of Triticum aestivum L. have been reconstructed from anatomical observations of con- secutive serial transverse sections. Of the bundles entering a node (n) from its attached leaf, the first-formed and largest, the median, passes directly through the node to the second node below (n-2), where it bifurcates and fuses with other strands. These continue to node n- 3 before fusing completely with the nodal plexus. The next six bundles to form (laterals) establish some links with bundles from higher leaves in the node of entry, much more extensive connections in node n- 1, and fuse completely with the nodal plexus in node n-2. The next four lateral bundles to differentiate are more extensively linked in node n and fuse completely with the nodal plexus in node n - I . The remaining 16-20 bundles from the leaf (intermediates) follow much the same course but develop more extensive connections with other bundles. The extensive plexus which develops in each node ensures vascular connections between most bundles. The significance of these in transport is briefly discussed.

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain hardness is determined mainly by variations in puroindoline genes (Pina-D1 and Pinb-D1), which are located on the short arm of chromosome 5D. This trait has a direct effect on the technological properties of the flour and the final product quality. The objective of the study was to analyze the mutation frequency in both Pin genes and their influence on grain hardness in 118 modern bread wheat cultivars and breeding lines cultivated in Poland, and 80 landraces from Poland. The PCR products containing the Pin gene coding sequences were sequenced by the Sanger method. Based on detected the SNPs (single-nucleotide polymorphisms) we designed CAPS (cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence) markers for the fast screening of Pinb alleles in a large number of genotypes. All analyzed cultivars, breeding lines, and landraces possess the wild-type Pina-D1a allele. Allelic variation was observed within the Pinb gene. The most frequently occurring allele in modern wheat cultivars and breeding lines (over 50%) was Pinb-D1b. The contribution of the remaining alleles (Pinb-D1a, Pinb-D1c, and Pinb-D1d) was much less (approx. 15% each). In landraces, the most frequent allele was Pinb-D1a (over 70%), followed by Pinb-D1b (21% frequency). Pinb-D1c and Pinb-D1g were found in individual varieties. SKCS (single-kernel characterization system) analysis revealed that grain hardness was strictly connected with Pinb gene allelic variation in most tested cultivars. The mean grain hardness values were significantly greater in cultivars with mutant Pinb variants as compared to those with the wild-type Pinb-D1a allele. Based on grain hardness measured by SKCS, we classified the analyzed cultivars and lines into different classes according to a previously proposed classification system.

The Individual

The morphological development of the spike in short-statured hexaploid wheats (Triticum aestivum L.) derived from the cultivar Norin 10, and in Norin 10 as well, was markedly different from that in standard hexaploid wheats. In Norin 10 and its derivatives, the single ridges (slowly growing leaf primordia) on the elongating apex were considerably larger and spikelet primordia initiation and expansion were markedly delayed, resulting in a long apex with many single ridges. When spikelet development commenced, it was much more synchronous and hence gave rise to longer heads than in standard wheat in which spikelet development began soon after the start of the elongation of the apex. In most Norin 10 derivatives, more spikelets were initiated than in standard wheat. Apical dominance in the spike appeared to be stronger than in standard wheats. Also, apical dominance within the individual spikelets appeared to be greater, the net result being more fertile florets per spikelet. The developmental pattern of the spike of Norin 10 and its derivatives resembled, to a marked degree, the developmental pattern of rye (Secale cereale L.).
