Global wheat production could benefit from closing the genetic yield gap
Global food security requires food production to be increased in the coming decades. The closure of any existing genetic yield gap (Yig) by genetic improvement could increase... -
Loss of chromatin remodeler DDM1 causes segregation distortion in Arabidopsis...
Segregation distortion (SD) is common in most genetic mapping experiments and a valuable resource to determine how gene loci induce deviation. Meiotic DNA crossing over and SD... -
Loss of starch synthase IIIa changes starch molecular structure and granule m...
AbstractStarch synthase III plays a key role in starch biosynthesis and is highly expressed in developing wheat grains. To understand the contribution of SSIII to starch and... -
FANCM promotes class I interfering crossovers and suppresses class II non-int...
AbstractFANCM suppresses crossovers in plants by unwinding recombination intermediates. In wheat, crossovers are skewed toward the chromosome ends, thus limiting generation of... -
Changes in the concentrations and transcripts for gibberellins and other horm...
Abstract Background Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a major source of nutrition globally, but yields can be seriously compromised by water limitation. Redistribution of... -
A robust KASP marker for selection of four pairs of linked leaf rust and stri...
Stripe rust and leaf rust are among the most devastating diseases of wheat, limiting its production globally. Wheat wild relatives harbour genetic diversity for new genes and... -
Below-ground physiological processes enhancing phosphorus acquisition in plants
Phosphorus (P) is an essential element for crop growth and development. In acid soils, inorganic P (Pi) is immobilised with Fe3+ and Al3+, whereas in calcareous soils, it is... -
Population genomic analysis of Aegilops tauschii identifies targets for bread...
AbstractAegilops tauschii, the diploid wild progenitor of the D subgenome of bread wheat, is a reservoir of genetic diversity for improving bread wheat performance and... -
Genetic control of iron bioavailability is independent from iron concentratio...
Abstract Background Anemia is thought to affect up to 1.6 billion people worldwide. One of the major contributors to low iron (Fe) absorption is a higher proportion of cereals... -
Plant adaptation to nutrient stress
Mineral nutrients absorbed in the inorganic form are indispensable for plant growth and development. The various processes underlying yield formation in crops such as biomass... -
Effectiveness of using representative subsets of global climate models in fut...
AbstractRepresentative subsets of global climate models (GCMs) are often used in climate change impact studies to account for uncertainty in ensemble climate projections.... -
Wheat root systems as a breeding target for climate resilience
AbstractIn the coming decades, larger genetic gains in yield will be necessary to meet projected demand, and this must be achieved despite the destabilizing impacts of climate... -
The membrane-localized protein kinase MAP4K4/TOT3 regulates thermomorphogenesis
AbstractPlants respond to mild warm temperature conditions by increased elongation growth of organs to enhance cooling capacity, in a process called thermomorphogenesis. To this... -
Methodology to assess the changing risk of yield failure due to heat and drou...
While the understanding of average impacts of climate change on crop yields is improving, few assessments have quantified expected impacts on yield distributions and the risk of... -
Post-translational cleavage of HMW-GS Dy10 allele improves the cookie-making ...
Wheat is a major staple food crop worldwide because of the unique properties of wheat flour. High molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs), which are among the most critical... -
Genomics accelerated isolation of a new stem rust avirulence gene–wheat resis...
Stem rust caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt) is a devastating disease of the global staple crop wheat. Although this disease was largely controlled in... -
Identifying aphid resistance in the ancestral wheat Triticum monococcum under...
AbstractWheat is an economically, socially, and nutritionally important crop, however, aphid infestation can often reduce wheat yield through feeding and virus transmission.... -
Reduced free asparagine in wheat grain resulting from a natural deletion of T...
Abstract Background Understanding the determinants of free asparagine concentration in wheat grain is necessary to reduce levels of the processing contaminant acrylamide in... -
Population structure and genome-wide association studies in bread wheat for p...
AbstractSoil bioavailability of phosphorus (P) is a major concern for crop productivity worldwide. As phosphatic fertilizers are a non-renewable resource associated with... -
The role of gene flow and chromosomal instability in shaping the bread wheat ...
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the world’s most important crops; however, a low level of genetic diversity within commercial breeding accessions can significantly...
