Synteny between a major heading-date QTL in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and the Hd3 heading-date locus in rice (2003)
Journal Article
Armstead, I., Turner, L., Farrell, M., Skøt, L., Gomez, P., Montoya, T., …Humphreys, M. (2004). Synteny between a major heading-date QTL in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and the Hd3 heading-date locus in rice. TAG Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 108(5), 822-828. doi:10.1007/s00122-003-1495-6

The genetic control of induction to flowering has been studied extensively in both model and crop species because of its fundamental biological and economic significance. An ultimate aim of many of these studies has been the application of the unders...

Comparison and integration of genetic maps generated from F2 and BC1-type mapping populations in perennial ryegrass (2002)
Journal Article
Armstead, I., Turner, L., King, I., Cairns, A., & Humphreys, M. (2002). Comparison and integration of genetic maps generated from F2 and BC1-type mapping populations in perennial ryegrass. Plant Breeding, 121(6), 501-507. doi:10.1046/j.1439-0523.2002.00742.x

Linkage maps of perennial ryegrass were constructed from F2 and BC1?type populations using, predominantly, restriction fragment length polymorphism data based on heterologous probes used in mapping other grass species. The maps identified seven linka... Read More about Comparison and integration of genetic maps generated from F2 and BC1-type mapping populations in perennial ryegrass.

A High-Copy-Number CACTA Family Transposon in Temperate Grasses and Cereals (2002)
Journal Article
Langdon, T., Jenkins, G., Hasterok, R., Jones, R. N., & King, I. P. (2003). A High-Copy-Number CACTA Family Transposon in Temperate Grasses and Cereals. Genetics, 163(3), 1097-1108

A lineage of CACTA family transposons has been identified in temperate grasses and cereals, and a full-length representative of the subfamily from Lolium perenne has been sequenced. Both the size and internal organization of the L. perenne element ar... Read More about A High-Copy-Number CACTA Family Transposon in Temperate Grasses and Cereals.

Traffic exposure increases natural 15N and heavy metal concentrations in mosses (2000)
Journal Article
Pearson, J., Wells, D. M., Seller, K. J., Bennett, A., Soares, A., Woodall, J., & Ingrouille, M. J. (2000). Traffic exposure increases natural 15N and heavy metal concentrations in mosses. New Phytologist, 147(2), 317-326. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1469-8137.2000.00702.x

Mosses have been used as biomonitors of atmospheric pollution for some years, but few studies have been carried out on the effect of NO(x) emissions from traffic on moss tissue N. Eight species of moss (102 samples) growing on walls or roofs next to... Read More about Traffic exposure increases natural 15N and heavy metal concentrations in mosses.
