A guide to the homoeology of chromosomes within the Triticeae
Abstract
A method of assessing chromosome homoeologies within the genomes of the Triticeae which does not require the ultimate test of substitution of the chromosomes into wheat is presented. This takes the form of a table listing key characters that are associated with specific homoeologous groups. These characters include marker genes, chromosome morphology, and plant morphologies of wheat-alien chromosome addition and wheat tetrasomic lines.
