BED-domain-containing immune receptors confer diverse resistance spectra to y...
Crop diseases reduce wheat yields by ~25% globally and thus pose a major threat to global food security1. Genetic resistance can reduce crop losses in the field and can be... -
Fine mapping of Aegilops peregrina co-segregating leaf and stripe rust resist...
Aegilops peregrina, a wild tetraploid relative of wheat with genome constitution UUSS, displays genetic variation for resistance to leaf and stripe (yellow) rust. The wheat Ae.... -
Developmental responses of bread wheat to changes in ambient temperature foll...
FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) is a central integrator of environmental signals that regulates the timing of vegetative to reproductive transition in flowering plants. In model plants,... -
A roadmap for gene functional characterisation in wheat
Research in Arabidopsis and other model species has uncovered mechanisms regulating important biological processes in plants. With the advent of high quality functional genomic... -
Increased pericarp cell length underlies a major quantitative trait locus for...
Crop yields must increase to address food insecurity. Grain weight, determined by grain length and width, is an important yield component, but our understanding of the... -
Hotspots in the genomic architecture of field drought responses in wheat as b...
Wheat can adapt to most agricultural conditions across temperate regions. This success is the result of phenotypic plasticity conferred by a large and complex genome composed of... -
Combining Traditional Mutagenesis with New High-Throughput Sequencing and Gen...

Heat in Wheat: Exploit Reverse Genetic Techniques to Discover New Alleles Wit...
Wheat breeding nowadays must address producers and consumers’ desire. According to the last FAO report, a dramatic decrease in wheat production is expected in the next decades... -
Identification of a dominant chlorosis phenotype through a forward screen of ...
AbstractDurum wheat (Triticum turgidum) derives from a hybridization event approximately 400,000 years ago which led to the creation of an allotetraploid genome. Unlike with... -
Genome-Wide Association Study of Grain Architecture in Wild Wheat Aegilops ta...
Aegilops tauschii, the D-genome progenitor of Triticum aestivum, encompasses huge diversity for various traits of potential economic importance such as yield, biotic and abiotic... -
Chromosome-scale comparative sequence analysis unravels molecular mechanisms ...
Recent improvements in DNA sequencing and genome scaffolding have paved the way to generate high-quality de novo assemblies of pseudomolecules representing complete chromosomes... -
Improving wheat as a source of iron and zinc for global nutrition
Wheat is the staple food crop in temperate countries and increasingly consumed in developing countries, displacing traditional foods. However, wheat products are typically low... -
Genome-Wide Transcription During Early Wheat Meiosis Is Independent of Synaps...
Polyploidization is a fundamental process in plant evolution. One of the biggest challenges faced by a new polyploid is meiosis, particularly discriminating between multiple... -
Exploiting the ZIP4 homologue within the wheat Ph1 locus has identified two l...
Despite possessing related ancestral genomes, hexaploid wheat behaves as a diploid during meiosis. The wheat Ph1 locus promotes accurate synapsis and crossover of homologous... -

Pathogenomic Analysis of Wheat Yellow Rust Lineages Detects Seasonal Variatio...
Recent disease outbreaks caused by (re-)emerging plant pathogens have been associated with expansions in pathogen geographic distribution and increased virulence. For example,... -
Dynamics of floret initiation/death determining spike fertility in wheat as a...
As wheat yield is linearly related to grain number, understanding the physiological determinants of the number of fertile florets based on floret development dynamics due to the... -
Genetic screening for mutants with altered seminal root numbers in hexaploid ...
ABSTRACTRoots are the main channel for water and nutrient uptake in plants. Optimisation of root architecture provides a viable strategy to improve nutrient and water uptake... -
Albugo candida race diversity, ploidy and host-associated microbes revealed ...
Physiological races of the oomycete Albugo candida are biotrophic pathogens of diverse plant species, primarily the Brassicaceae, and cause infections that suppress host... -
Comparative secretome analysis of Rhizoctonia solani isolates with different ...
Rhizoctonia solani is a fungal pathogen causing substantial damage to many of the worlds’ largest food crops including wheat, rice, maize and soybean. Despite impacting global...
