Global Wheat Head Detection 2021: An Improved Dataset for Benchmarking Wheat ...
The Global Wheat Head Detection (GWHD) dataset was created in 2020 and has assembled 193,634 labelled wheat heads from 4700 RGB images acquired from various acquisition... -
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... -
New insights into homoeologous copy number variations in the hexaploid wheat ...
Bread wheat is an allohexaploid species originating from two successive and recent rounds of hybridization between three diploid species that were very similar in terms of... -
Combining yield potential and drought resilience in a spring wheat diversity ...
Pressures of population growth and climate change require the development of resilient higher yielding crops, particularly to drought. A spring wheat diversity panel was... -
Loss of TaIRX9b gene function in wheat decreases chain length and amount of a...
Wheat contains abundant xylan in cell walls of all tissues, but in endosperm, there is an unusual form of xylan substituted only by arabinose (arabinoxylan; AX) that has long... -
A Sequence Distance Graph framework for genome assembly and analysis
The Sequence Distance Graph (SDG) framework works with genome assembly graphs and raw data from paired, linked and long reads. It includes a simple deBruijn graph module, and...
