Identification of Cereal Remains from Archaeological Sites 2Nd Edition 2006
Identification of cereal remains from archaeological sites 2nd edition 2006 Spikelet fork of the “new glume wheat” (Jones et al. 2000) Stefanie JACOMET and collaborators Archaeobotany Lab IPAS, Basel University English translation partly by James Greig CEREALS: CEREALIA Fam. Poaceae /Gramineae (Grasses) Systematics and Taxonomy All cereal species belong botanically (taxonomically) to the large family of the Gramineae (Poaceae). This is one of the largest Angiosperm families with >10 000 different species. In the following the systematics for some of the most imporant taxa is shown: class: Monocotyledoneae order: Poales familiy: Poaceae (= Gramineae) (Süssgräser) subfamily: Pooideae Tribus: Triticeae Subtribus: Triticinae genera: Triticum (Weizen, wheat); Aegilops ; Hordeum (Gerste; barley); Elymus; Hordelymus; Agropyron; Secale (Roggen, rye) Note : Avena and the millets belong to other Tribus. The identification of prehistoric cereal remains assumes understanding of different subject areas in botany. These are mainly morphology and anatomy, but also phylogeny and evolution (and today, also genetics). Since most of the cereal species are treated as domesticated plants, many different forms such as subspecies, varieties, and forms appear inside the genus and species (see table below). In domesticates the taxonomical category of variety is also called “sort” (lat. cultivar, abbreviated: cv.). This refers to a variety which evolved through breeding. Cultivar is the lowest taxonomic rank in the domesticated plants. Occasionally, cultivars are also called races: e.g. landraces evolved through genetic isolation, under local environmental conditions whereas „high-breed-races“ were breed by strong selection of humans. Anyhow: The morphological delimitation of cultivars is difficult, sometimes even impossible. It needs great experience and very detailed morphological knowledge. -
Wheat Landraces from Oman: a Botanical Analysis
Emir. J. Food Agric. 2014. 26 (2): 119-136 doi: 10.9755/ejfa.v26i2.16760 http://www.ejfa.info/ REGULAR ARTICLE Wheat landraces from Oman: A botanical analysis A. A. Filatenko1* and K. Hammer2 1N. I. Vavilov Research Institute of Plant Industry, Veteran Council, St. Petersburg, Russia 2University of Kassel, Faculty of Agriculture, International Rural Development and Environmental Protection, Witzenhausen, Germany Abstract The wheat landraces of Oman are chacterized. Their main constituents are Triticum aestivum L. ssp. aestivum, T. aestivum ssp. hadropyrum (Flaksb.) Tzvel., T. compactum Host, T. aethiopicum Jakubz.ssp. aethiopicum, T. aethiopicum ssp. vavilovianum Jakubz. et A. Filat. and T. dicoccon Schrank. The classification of the landraces was performed using the morphological method developed by Dorofeev, Filatenko et al. (1979), considering species, subspecies, convarieties and a great number of botanical varieties. Single landraces contained up to three different species (“Sareeaa”) and up to 17 different botanical varieties (“Missani”). T. aethiopicum var. hajirense A. Filat. et K. Hammer is newly described. Keys for the determination of important Omani wheat races are proposed. 15 wheat landraces of Oman are characterized morphologically. A detailed list describing origin, local names, and infraspecific taxa of the material is provided. Transformation processes of the oasis settlements lead to a replacement of the traditional agricultural systems and the landraces are threatened by genetic erosion. Additional measures are necessary -

Research is based on three varieties of different alternative types of wheat (Triticum spelta, Triticum compactum and Triticum durum) and one conventional variety of ordinary soft wheat (Triticum vulgare). The experiment was set up on less carbonate-chernozem, according to the random block design with four replicates for each treatment (F1-microbiological fertilizer, F2-the combined use of microbiological fertilizer and organic fertilizer, F0-control (no fertilizer application)). Research results showed that fertilization significantly influenced the increase in the total number of microorganisms to the level of 3.7% and 28%, and the number of Azotobacter to the level of 2.8% and 19.1%, with the proven higher efficiency of mixed application of fertilizers. Analysis of variance of the total number of microorganisms and Azotobacter showed a statistically significant difference between the tested varieties. Grain yield of spelt (4,540 kg ha-1) was significantly higher compared to other varieties. -
Phytogeographic Basis Plant Breeding
PHYTOGEOGRAPHIC BASIS of PLANT BREEDING 1. Local Varieties and Their Significance :— The -varieties of cultivated plants grown in the different regions of the Soviet Union until recently were varieties introduced from various localities and countries, and were inseparable from human migration and colonization. The list of cultivated plants reflects the history of our country in its recent past, it shows the effects of individual peasant farming. In the separate groups and varieties of plants one can trace the routes by which they were brought from Western Europe, the United States, Asia Minor, Mongolia, and Iran. In the pre-revolutionary period, the introduction of new varieties in our country was haphazard. Beginning with the eighteenth century, individual amateur growers and societies unsystemati- cally introduced new varieties from abroad. Sometimes these new varieties were quite valuable but because of the vastness of our country and the com- plete absence of any state-planned system of plant introduction, the imported varieties usually restricted themselves to very limited areas and disappeared. It may be considered that pedigree seed production, in the real meaning of the term, did not exist in our country before the October Revolution. We have just begun a planned distribution of varieties in accordance with the needs of our large-scale socialized and mechanized agricultural economy. Yet, there is no doubt that the varietal materials which were introduced in our country and cultivated for decades and centuries were subjected to natural selection, and also to deliberate or casual artificial selection, and that some local varieties evolved that were ecologically adapted. The proximity of the Soviet Union to the basic centers of origin of numer- ous cultivated plants facilitated the selection of exceptionally valuable forms. -

Horsley Date Department Chair ABSTRACT Modern wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars are characterized by having spikes with fusiform architecture and rachis nodes with one spikelet. However, genotypes with supernumerary spikelets (SS) in which rachis nodes have more than one spikelet exist in nature. Although this may be a promising trait that increases yield components, detailed knowledge about the molecular basis of SS trait and their influence on other wheat traits is still lacking. In the present study, a population of 163 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from an elite line and an exotic line with SS was used to identify QTL for SS and other wheat traits. The RILs, seven checks and the two parents were evaluated for seven SS-related, 10 spike-related, 10 agronomic, and eight quality traits over four to six environments in North Dakota. -

Inferred from the Sequences of the 3-Phosphoglycerate Kinase Gene Qian Chen1,2., Hou-Yang Kang1., Xing Fan1, Yi Wang1, Li-Na Sha1, Hai-Qin Zhang1, Mei-Yu Zhong1, Li-Li Xu1, Jian Zeng3, Rui-Wu Yang4, Li Zhang4, Chun-Bang Ding4, Yong-Hong Zhou1,2* 1 Triticeae Research Institute, Sichuan Agricultural University, Sichuan, People’s Republic of China, 2 Key Laboratory of Crop Genetic Resources and Improvement, Ministry of Education, Sichuan Agricultural University, Sichuan, People’s Republic of China, 3 College of Resources and Environment, Sichuan Agricultural University, Sichuan, People’s Republic of China, 4 College of Biology and Science, Sichuan Agricultural University, Sichuan, People’s Republic of China Abstract Single- and low-copy genes are less likely to be subject to concerted evolution. Thus, they are appropriate tools to study the origin and evolution of polyploidy plant taxa. The plastid 3-phosphoglycerate kinase gene (Pgk-1) sequences from 44 accessions of Triticum and Aegilops, representing diploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid wheats, were used to estimate the origin of Triticum petropavlovskyi. Our phylogenetic analysis was carried out on exon+intron, exon and intron sequences, using maximum likelihood, Bayesian inference and haplotype networking. We found the D genome sequences of Pgk-1 genes from T. petropavlovskyi are similar to the D genome orthologs in T. aestivum, while their relationship with Ae. tauschii is more distant. The A genome sequences of T. petropavlovskyi group with those of T. polonicum, but its Pgk-1 B genome sequences to some extent diverge from those of other species of Triticum. -

ABSTRACT Ayurveda has great potential in the field of Preventive medicine and glorifies the concept of Aahara (food). A properly selected diet and diet. plan plays a critical importance in the management of many diseases. Godhuma (wheat) is a cereal using since ancient period, botanically identified as Triticum sativum Lam . belonging to Poaceae family. Along with its nutritional property, many medicinal properties have also been explained in Ayurveda classics. Wheat is a rich source of multiple essential nutrients, such as protein, dietary fibre, manganese, phosphorus and niacin. Several B vitamins and other dietary minerals are in significant content. Godhuma has shown proven therapeutic effects in prevention and treatment of various conditions. This paper reviews the botanical identity of Godhuma its synonyms, vernacular names, bhedas, rasapanchaka, karmas, Rogaghnata, doshaghnata, yogas, along with its habit, habitat, morphological features, chemical constituents etc., and some of its research activities.
