Evolution of the bread wheat D-subgenome and enriching it with diversity from...
AbstractAegilops tauschii, the diploid wild progenitor of the D-subgenome of bread wheat, constitutes a reservoir of genetic diversity for improving bread wheat performance and... -
A Roadmap for Lowering Crop Nitrogen Requirement
Increasing nitrogen fertilizer applications have sustained a growing world population in the 20th century. However, to avoid any further associated environmental damage, new... -
Mapping Agronomic and Quality Traits in Elite Durum Wheat Lines under Differi...
Final grain production and quality in durum wheat are affected by biotic and abiotic stresses. The association mapping (AM) approach is useful for dissecting the genetic control... -
Implementing within‐cross genomic prediction to reduce oat breeding costs
A barrier to the adoption of genomic prediction in small breeding programs is the initial cost of genotyping material. Although decreasing, marker costs are usually higher than... -
A roadmap for gene functional characterisation in crops with large genomes: L...
Understanding the function of genes within staple crops will accelerate crop improvement by allowing targeted breeding approaches. Despite their importance, a lack of genomic... -
Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Relating to Flowering Time, Flag Le...
Tetraploid landraces of wheat harbour genetic diversity that could be introgressed into modern bread wheat with the aid of marker-assisted selection to address the genetic... -
Transfer of a starch phenotype from wild wheat to bread wheat by deletion of ...
Our previous genetic analysis of a tetraploid wild wheat species, Aegilops peregrina, predicted that a single gene per haploid genome, Bgc-1, controls B-type starch granule... -
LYS3 encodes a prolamin-box-binding transcription factor that controls embryo...
Mutations at the LYS3 locus in barley have multiple effects on grain development, including an increase in embryo size and a decrease in endosperm starch content. The gene... -
A carbohydrate-binding protein, FLOURY ENDOSPERM 6 influences the initiation ...
Previously, we identified a quantitative trait locus on the group 4 chromosomes of Aegilops and bread wheat that controls B-type starch-granule content. Here, we identify a... -
Optimisation of droplet digital PCR for determining copy number variation of ...
Targeted and random mutagenesis of gene families require accurate quantification. Droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) enables high-throughput screening of copy number variation (CNV).... -
Outlook for coeliac disease patients: towards bread wheat with hypoimmunogeni...
Background Wheat grains contain gluten proteins, which harbour immunogenic epitopes that trigger Coeliac disease in 1–2% of the human population. Wheat varieties or accessions... -
Development of the GlutEnSeq capture system for sequencing gluten gene famili...
We developed an in-solution gluten exome capture system called GlutEnSeq (Gluten gene Enrichment and Sequencing), covering the sequence variation of thousands of prolamin genes... -
Food processing and breeding strategies for coeliac-safe and healthy wheat pr...
A strict gluten-free diet is currently the only treatment for the 1-2% of the world population who suffer from coeliac disease (CD). However, due to the presence of wheat and... -
Global Journeys of Adaptive Wheat Genes
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is grown across a wide range of environments having been selected in part for a complex of genes controlling adaptive response. As a major... -
Crown rot of wheat in Australia: Fusarium pseudograminearum taxonomy, populat...
Fusarium pseudograminearum (Fp) causes crown rot (CR) on a wide range of winter cereals reducing yield and grain quality in Australia and worldwide. The broad range of host... -
Long Non-Coding RNAs as Endogenous Target Mimics and Exploration of Their Rol...
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) research in plants has recently gained momentum taking cues from studies in animals systems. The availability of next-generation sequencing has... -
Investigating the potential of novel non-woven fabrics for efficient pollinat...
Plant breeding is achieved through the controlled self- or cross-pollination of individuals and typically involves isolation of floral parts from selected parental plants.... -

Barley lys3 mutants are unique amongst shrunken-endosperm mutants in having a...
Many shrunken endosperm mutants of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) have been described and several of these are known to have lesions in starch biosynthesis genes. Here we confirm... -
Functional Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) Associated With Plant Pe...
In crop genetic studies, the mapping of longitudinal data describing the spatio-temporal nature of agronomic traits can potentially elucidate the factors influencing their...
