The identification of new candidate genes Triticum aestivum FLOWERING LOCUS T...
Perception of photoperiod changes enables plants to flower under optimum conditions for survival. We used doubled haploid populations of crosses among Avalon × Cadenza, Charger... -
Global transcriptome analysis uncovers the gene co-expression regulation netw...
Wheat grain development is a robust biological process that largely determines grain quality and yield. In this study, we investigated the grain transcriptome of winter wheat... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Gene editing and mutagenesis reveal inter-cultivar differences and additivity...
The TaGW2 gene homoeologues have been reported to be negative regulators of grain size (GS) and thousand grain weight (TGW) in wheat. However, the contribution of each... -

Dual effect of the wheat Ph1 locus on chromosome synapsis and crossover
Allopolyploids must possess a mechanism for facilitating synapsis and crossover (CO) between homologues, in preference to homoeologues (related chromosomes), to ensure... -
Short periods of high temperature during meiosis prevent normal meiotic progr...
This study assesses the effects of heat on meiotic progression and grain number in hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L. var. Chinese Spring), defines a heat-sensitive stage and... -
Applying the latest advances in genomics and phenomics for trait discovery in...
Improving traits in wheat has historically been challenging due to its large and polyploid genome, limited genetic diversity and in‐field phenotyping constraints. However,... -
