The results, supplemented by pedigree analysis, showed that 42.3 % of Chinese wheat varieties contained Rht8, but its frequency differed in different ecological zones. Combined with the results of GA3 test, it indicated that 20.6 % of Chinese wheat varieties carried both Rht8 and GA3 insensitive dwarf genes. For most Chinese wheat varieties, their Rht8 could be traced back to Funo, Villa Glory, St1472/506 and St2422/464 introduced from Italy, and Bezostaya1 from Russia. 1B/1R varieties, such as Avrora, Lovrin 10, Kavkas, Predgornia 2, etc, once widely used as the parents resistant to rust and powdery mildew in China, could also be the donors of Rht8 UR - https://hdl.handle.net/10883/21378 T2 - Acta Agronomica Sinica ER -
