Brandham An edited volume arising from papers presented at The Percival Symposium: Wheat- Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow A meeting to celebrate the life and work of John Percival Organised by: The School of Plant Sciences The University of Reading, UK in collaboration with The Linnean Society 12-13 July 1999 ACADEMIC PRESS THE LEGACY OF JOHN PERCIV AL Preface John Percival (1863-1949) was Professor of Agricultural Botany at the University of Reading from 1907 to 1932 and a driving force behind the creation of agricultural botany as a scientific discipline. His monumental treatment of wheat The Wheat Plant: A Monograph (1921) still serves as a standard reference, having been reprinted as recently as 1974. Percival was the consummate agricultural scientist - botanist, taxonomist, geneticist, germplasm collector, curator, breeder, agronomist, historian and teacher. On the occasion of the 50th anniversary ofPercival's death, the University's School of Plant Sciences hosted a meeting to celebrate his life and work. Reflecting the scope ofPercival's scientific views, invited speakers surveyed research progress during the last half-century in the archaeobotany, systematics, genetics and breeding of the wheat plant. The two-day event offered a unique opportunity for a multi-disciplinary gathering of experts who shared a common interest in wheat studies. Peter D. S. Caligari Peter E.

Box 221 Richmond Reading RG6 6AS, UK Surrey TW9 JDS, UK THE LEGACY OF JOHN PERCIVAL 7 Introduction John·Percival- acknowledging his legacy PETER D. S. CALIGARI Department of Agricultural Botany, School of Plant Sciences, The University of Reading, Whiteknights, P 0 Box 221, Reading, RG6 6AS, UK John Percival died in 1949, the year that I was born, but his legacy still remains a strong one, not only in philosophical but also in tangible terms. The Department of Agricultural Botany at The University of Reading, of which he was the first Professor in 1909, has flourished and is an active centre for as wide a range of aspects of agricultural botany as John Percival himself encompassed and encouraged. A collection of herbarium specimens (The Percival Collection) that he assembled still exists in different research centres and is actively used today. His internationally acclaimed book The Wheat Plant: A Monograph which he first published in 1921, is still widely referenced. This stood alongside a range of books, papers and activity which formed the very basis of the subject of agricultural botany. Of course, as I am sure John Percival would have insisted, the subject and Department have moved on and developed considerably since his time. I will not detail the history of the Department but simply point out that, from his starting point, it is now one of the three constituent departments of the School of Plant Sciences at the University of Reading, a School which was rated as the top plant science group in the UK in the last Research Assessment Exercise, gaining the top 5* rating. One cannot help but wonder how he would have seen the current work, such as the opportunities that are being opened up by the new technologies in the areas of molecular biology and biotechnology. I am sure, however, that he would have used them to advantage. John Percival's influence continues in many ways, including our still finding physical evidence of his activities. In only the last few years the unpublished parts of what John Percival himself had entitledAegilops species: A Monograph (an outline of which is included at the end of this volume) were discovered, works that might have gone alongside his masterful The Wheat Plant: A Monograph. 1 The 50 h anniversary of his death seemed a very appropriate opportunity to commemorate his life and work. It is an opportunity to see where we are now and where we are going in the future. On this basis a distinguished group of speakers, who represent a wide range of interests that John Percival shared, agreed to present the papers published 8 WHEAT TAXONOMY: in this volume. I am very grateful to them all for agreeing to play such a vital role in this meeting and helping to fulfill this vision. The first important point was to set John Percival's work in the context ofhis life. Professor Hugh Bunting, with whom I share the privilege of having held the Chair of Agricultural Botany, of which John Percival was the founding Professor, generously agreed to the request that he speak about Percival the man. This constitutes the first paper with subsequent ones covering important aspects of John Percival 's work on wheat, a major but no means exclusive part of his academic contribution ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My unreserved thanks to all the contributors to this volume (and the Symposium) for their willingness to play such a vital part in helping to celebrate John Perciv.al' s life and work. I would also like to thank those who played such an active part in organising the meeting- indeed without the forward thinking ofLaura Morrison, Mark Nesbitt and Terry Miller this meeting might never have been conceived. They have continued to play their part and have been joined by Step hen Jury and GeoffHewitt who have played active roles. I would particularly wish to note Geoffs inputs in turning the ideas into reality. The co-operation and involvement of the Rural History Centre has been gratifying, as has the response from those in the University Archives. It is a pleasure to acknowledge the Linnean Society for its financial support of the meeting from which the following papers emanated, and for agreeing to publish the Proceedings as a Special issue of The Linnean.

He was the second natural son of Edward Chapman, a farmer's son, taxidermist and naturalist, and Elizabeth Percival. Though some of his descendants record that he was always sensitive to the circumstances of his birth, his parents were married in 1869, and a stable family background evidently did much to promote his remarkable later career. At the age of 14, after nine years in a local school, his father's Quaker associations may have facilitated his move to York, where he was apprenticed to the Quaker bookseller and printer William Sessions. With the help of the Quaker families Spence and Cotton, he entered Cambridge in 1884 at 21.

    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.

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

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ࢝ The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) was notified on January 31, 2018, about a few wheat plants found on an access road in southern Alberta that survived a spraying treatment for weeds. ࢝ The CFIA’s tests confirmed that the wheat found is genetically modified to be herbicide tolerant. Genetically modified (GM) wheat is not authorized to be grown commercially in any country. ࢝ Since being notified, the CFIA worked diligently with federal and provincial partners and other stakeholders to determine the origin and extent of the GM wheat plants to get as much complete, accurate, and credible information about this discovery as possible. Based on extensive scientific testing, there is no evidence that this GM wheat is present anywhere other than the isolated site where it was discovered. ࢝ There is also no evidence that this wheat has entered the food or animal feed system, nor is it present anywhere else in the environment. ࢝ Health Canada and the CFIA have performed risk assessments of this finding, and have concluded that it does not pose a food safety, animal feed, or environmental risk. ࢝ The wheat plants found in Alberta are not a match for any wheat authorized for sale or for commercial production in Canada.

  • Khorasan (Kamut® Brand) Wheat
    Khorasan (Kamut® Brand) Wheat Introduction Khorasan wheat (Triticum turgidum, ssp. turanicum) is an ancient wheat variety that originated in the Fertile Crescent in Western Asia. It is a relative of durum wheat and is believed to have come to North America from Egypt, following World War II. It was rediscovered in 1977 by a Montana farmer who spent the next few years propagating the small supply of original seed. In 1990, khorasan wheat was first sold under the trademark KAMUT® in the United States. The trademark was implemented to preserve minimum standards for the khorasan wheat variety and to ensure consistent quality and market supply. KAMUT® wheat is currently only grown as KAMUT® wheat has larger heads, awns and kernels than an organic certified grain and hard red spring wheat and durum. marketed to various countries Photo courtesy T. Blyth, Kamut International around the world. Plant Adaptation KAMUT® wheat production is well suited to growing conditions found in southern Alberta and southern Saskatchewan, similar to durum. Northern regions with cooler, wetter conditions are less favorable for KAMUT® wheat production as disease risk may be greater and the crop requires about 100 days to mature after seeding or approximately one week later than spring wheat. KAMUT® wheat will grow well in any soil that is suitable for other cereal grain production. KAMUT® wheat has a growth pattern similar to spring wheat varieties. Each sprouted kernel produces one or two stems per seed, and each stem produces a large head with long black awns. It has moderate straw strength and grows to approximately 127 cm (4.2 ft) tall.

To promote sustainability and biodiversity conservation, there is a growing interest in some old wheat species that can achieve better grain yields than the new varieties in marginal soil and/or management conditions. Generally, common wheat is intensively studied but there is still a lack of knowledge of the competitiveness of alternative species such as spelt wheat. The aim is to provide detailed analysis of vegetative, generative and spectral properties of spelt and common wheat grown under different nitrogen fertiliser levels. Our results complement the previous findings and highlight the fact that despite the lodging risk increasing together with the N fertiliser level, spelt wheat is a real alternative to common wheat for low N input production both for low quality and fertile soils. Vitality indices such as flag leaf chlorophyll content and normalized difference vegetation index were found to be good precursors of the final yield and the proposed estimation equations may improve the yield forecasting applications.
