Generation of Doubled Haploid Wheat-Triticum urartu Introgression Lines and T...
Wheat is one of the most important food and protein sources in the world and although, in recent years wheat breeders have achieved yield gains, they are not sufficient to meet... -
A novel approach to develop wheat chromosome-specific KASP markers for detect...
ABSTRACTMany wild relative species are being used in pre-breeding programmes to increase the genetic diversity of wheat. Genotyping tools such as single nucleotide polymorphism... -
Resistance to wheat rusts identified in wheat/ Amblyopyrum muticum chromosome...
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) rusts are a worldwide production problem. Plant breeders have used genetic resistance to combat these fungi. However, single-gene resistance is... -
Determination of wheat spike and spikelet architecture and grain traits using...
Abstract Background Wheat spike architecture is a key determinant of multiple grain yield components and detailed examination of spike morphometric traits is beneficial to... -
The interaction between wheat roots and soil pores in structured field soil
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) root growth in the subsoil is usually constrained by soil strength, although roots can use macropores to elongate to deeper layers. The... -
Plant roots sense soil compaction through restricted ethylene diffusion
Soil compaction represents a major challenge for modern agriculture. Compaction is intuitively thought to reduce root growth by limiting the ability of roots to penetrate harder... -
Rapid identification of homozygosity and site of wild relative introgressions...
For future food security, it is important that wheat, one of the most widely consumed crops in the world, can survive the threat of abiotic and biotic stresses. New genetic... -
The Use of Pentaploid Crosses for the Introgression of Amblyopyrum muticum an...
The wild relatives of wheat provide an important source of genetic variation for wheat improvement. Much of the work in the past aimed at transferring genetic variation from... -
Novel sources of variation in grain Zinc (Zn) concentration in bread wheat ge...
A diverse panel of 245 wheat genotypes, derived from crosses between landraces from the Watkins collection representing global diversity in the early 20th century and the modern... -
Novel Sources of Variation in Grain Yield, Components and Mineral Traits Iden...
Salt-affected soils constrain wheat production globally. A wild wheat species, Thinopyrum bessarabicum (Savul. & Rayss) Á. Löve (Poaceae), and its derivatives are tolerant... -
Exploiting the genome of Thinopyrum elongatum to expand the gene pool of hexa...
Species within the genus Thinopyrum have been shown to carry genetic variation for a very wide range of traits including biotic and abiotic stresses and quality. Research has... -
Development of Wheat-Aegilops caudata Introgression Lines and Their Character...
Aegilops caudata L. [syn. Ae. markgrafii (Greuter) Hammer], is a diploid wild relative of wheat (2n = 2x = 14, CC) and a valuable source for new genetic diversity for wheat... -
Introgression of Aegilops speltoides segments in Triticum aestivum and the ef...
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) has been through a severe genetic bottleneck as a result of its evolution and domestication. It is therefore essential that new sources of... -
Development and characterisation of interspecific hybrid lines with genome-wi...
Triticum timopheevii (2n = 4x = 28; AtAtGG), is an important source for new genetic variation for wheat improvement with genes for potential disease resistance and salt... -
Detection of T. urartu Introgressions in Wheat and Development of a Panel of ...
Tritcum urartu (2n = 2x = 14, AuAu), the A genome donor of wheat, is an important source for new genetic variation for wheat improvement due to its high photosynthetic rate and... -
Development and validation of an exome-based SNP marker set for identificatio...
Thinopyrum intermedium (2n = 6x = 42, StJrJvs) is one of the most promising reservoirs of useful genes including tolerance to abiotic stresses, perenniality and disease... -
Characterisation of Thinopyrum bessarabicum chromosomes through genome-wide i...
Thinopyrum bessarabicum (2n = 2x = 14, JJ) is an important source for new genetic variation for wheat improvement due to its salinity tolerance and disease resistance. Its... -
Novel Sources of Variation in Grain Yield, Components and Mineral Traits Iden...
Salt-affected soils constrain wheat production globally. A wild wheat species, Thinopyrum bessarabicum (Savul. & Rayss) Á. Löve (Poaceae), and its derivatives are tolerant... -
Development of a New A –Genome-Specific Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Marker...
Cultivated einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L. subsp. monococcum, 2n = 2x = 14, AmAm) and its wild relative T. monococcum subsp. aegilopoides are important sources of... -
Development of Stable Homozygous Wheat/Amblyopyrum muticum (Aegilops mutica) ...
Wheat is one of the world’s most important sources of food. However, due to its evolution it has a low genetic base which will severely limit the ability of breeders to develop...
