CLAYTON, Australia, Jan. 5 (TNSJou) -- The Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation issued the following news release:
This represents a major advance over conventional wheat breeding protocols where individual resistance genes are added one by one. The researchers developed novel genetic technologies that combine and insert the five different wheat resistance genes together. The bundling prevents separation in subsequent breeding generations of the pl . . .
