Abstract
Summary: An F2 population segregating for the dominant gene Vrn-B1 was developed from the cross of the substitution line 'Diamant'/'Mironovskaya 808 5A' and the winter wheat cultivar 'Bezostaya 1'. Microsatellite markers (Xgwm and Xbarc) with known map locations on chromosome 5B of common wheat were used for mapping the gene Vrn-B1. Polymorphism between parental varieties was observed for 28 out of 34 microsatellite markers (82%). Applying the quantitative trait loci mapping approach, the target gene was mapped on the long arm of chromosome 5B, closely linked to Xgwm408. The map position of Vrn-B1 suggests that the gene is homoeologous to other vernalization response genes located on the homoeologous group 5 chromosomes of wheat, rye and barley
