Comparative Genomics and Functional Studies of Wheat BED-NLR Loci
Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich-repeat (LRR) receptors (NLRs) with non-canonical integrated domains (NLR-IDs) are widespread in plant genomes. Zinc-finger BED (named after the... -
Copy number variation ofTdDofcontrols solid-stemmed architecture in wheat
Stem solidness is an important agronomic trait of durum (Triticum turgidumL. var.durum) and bread (Triticum aestivumL.) wheat that provides resistance to the wheat stem sawfly.... -
Mutagenesis of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici and Selection of Gain-of-Viru...
Wheat stem rust caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is regaining prominence due to the recent emergence of virulent isolates and epidemics in Africa,... -
A Co-Expression Network in Hexaploid Wheat Reveals Mostly Balanced Expression...
Polyploidization has played an important role in plant evolution. However, upon polyploidization, the process of meiosis must adapt to ensure the proper segregation of increased... -
Magnesium Increases Homoeologous Crossover Frequency During Meiosis in ZIP4 (...
Wild relatives provide an important source of useful traits in wheat breeding. Wheat and wild relative hybrids have been widely used in breeding programs to introduce such... -
Heat in Wheat: Exploit Reverse Genetic Techniques to Discover New Alleles Wit...
Wheat breeding nowadays must address producers and consumers’ desire. According to the last FAO report, a dramatic decrease in wheat production is expected in the next decades... -
Genome-Wide Transcription During Early Wheat Meiosis Is Independent of Synaps...
Polyploidization is a fundamental process in plant evolution. One of the biggest challenges faced by a new polyploid is meiosis, particularly discriminating between multiple... -
