The aim of the project is to develop an effective and commercially-viable genetic system for the production of hybrid wheat varieties, based on new cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and fertility restoration (Rf) technology (msH1). The msH1 system, whose components are derived from the species Hordeum chilense, has been demonstrated very recently by one of the consortium partners and avoids the problems which until now have until prevented the development of viable CMS-based hybrid breeding technology in wheat. The project is industry-lead and includes three plant breeding companies from different states, in collaboration with public research groups from two different states.
