Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity in breeding programs can be impaired by fixation of alleles derived from a limited number of founder lines. This is demonstrated with the use of a solid-stem trait derived from the Portuguese landrace 'S-615' over 70 yrs ago that is widely used to resist the wheat stem sawfly ( Norton, WSS) in North America. The objective of this study was to evaluate haplotype diversity underlying the...
