Abstract excerpt
To identify the developmental stage during which the preferential inactivation of rRNA genes from the rye parent occurs in wheat x rye hybrids, nucleolar activity was evaluated in the embryo and endosperm of developing seeds of the hybrids. The hybrids were obtained from crosses of euploid and aneuploid lines of hexaploid wheat, Triticum aestivum cv. Chinese Spring, with rye, Secale cereale cv. Centeio do Alto....
