Abstract:
Based on a C-banded chromosome analysis of Triticum aestivum x T. timopheevii hybrid lines, we developed a classification of the A(t) and G genome chromosomes that agrees with the standard genetic nomenclature of T. aestivum chromosomes. Transfer of genetic material from T. timopheevii to T. aestivum involved complete chromosomes, chromosome arms, or segments. Frequencies of chromosome substitution were highest for homoeologous group 2 and lowest for group 4. Moreover, B(G) substitutions were frequent compared to A(A(t)). The pattern of chromosome substitutions and rearrangements were unequal and depended on the genotype of the parental T. aestivum cultivar.

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...
