Triticale

Triticale (/trɪtɪˈkeɪliː/; × Triticosecale) is a hybrid of wheat (Triticum) and rye(Secale) first bred in laboratories during the late 19th century in Scotland and Germany.[1] Commercially available triticale is almost always a second-generation hybrid, i.e., a cross between two kinds of primary (first-cross) triticales. As a rule, triticale combines the yield potential and grain quality of wheat with the disease and environmental tolerance (including soil conditions) of rye. Only recently[when?] has it been developed into a commercially viable crop. Depending on the cultivar, triticale can more or less resemble either of its parents. It is grown mostly for forage or fodder, although some triticale-based foods can be purchased at health food stores and can be found in some breakfast cereals.

When crossing wheat and rye, wheat is used as the female parent and rye as the male parent (pollen donor). The resulting hybrid is sterile and must be treated with colchicine to induce polyploidy and thus the ability to reproduce itself.

The primary producers of triticale are Poland, Germany, Belarus, France and Russia. In 2014, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), 17.1 million tons were harvested in 37 countries across the world.[2]

The triticale hybrids are all amphidiploid, which means the plant is diploid for two genomes derived from different species. In other words, triticale is an allotetraploid. In earlier years, most work was done on octoploid triticale. Different ploidy levels have been created and evaluated over time. The tetraploids showed little promise, but hexaploid triticale was successful enough to find

The man-made cereal is Triticale.

Explanation:

  • Triticale is the hybrid wheat which is made by crossing wheat and rye.
  • It is developed by increasing the chromosomes of the sterile hybrid which occurs when mixing wheat and rye.
  • That produced doubling is called as polyploid.
  • The name Triticale is originated from the scientific names of wheat ( Triticum) and rye (Secale).
  • It was developed in the year of 1875 in Scotland and Germany.
  • In this cross-breeding, the female plant is wheat and the pollen was donated by rye.
  • It is mainly grown for fodder and triticale based foods are used as a breakfast food.
