Insights into the resistance of a synthetically-derived wheat to Septoria tri...
Little is known about the initial, symptomless (latent) phase of the devastating wheat disease Septoria tritici blotch. However, speculations as to its impact on fungal success... -
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... -
A haplotype-led approach to increase the precision of wheat breeding
AbstractCrop productivity must increase at unprecedented rates to meet the needs of the growing worldwide population. Exploiting natural variation for the genetic improvement of... -
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... -
Diversity analysis of 80,000 wheat accessions reveals consequences and opport...
Abstract Undomesticated wild species, crop wild relatives, and landraces represent sources of variation for wheat improvement to address challenges from climate change and the... -
The Wheat GENIE3 Network Provides Biologically-Relevant Information in Polypl...
Gene regulatory networks are powerful tools which facilitate hypothesis generation and candidate gene discovery. However, the extent to which the network predictions are... -

Tackling the re-emergence of wheat stem rust in Western Europe
In our recent Communications Biology article, we reported the first occurrence of wheat stem rust in the UK in nearly six decades. An increased incidence of wheat stem rust in... -
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... -

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... -
Pathogenomic Analysis of Wheat Yellow Rust Lineages Detects Seasonal Variatio...
Recent disease outbreaks caused by (re-)emerging plant pathogens have been associated with expansions in pathogen geographic distribution and increased virulence. For example,... -
Comparative secretome analysis of Rhizoctonia solani isolates with different ...
Rhizoctonia solani is a fungal pathogen causing substantial damage to many of the worlds’ largest food crops including wheat, rice, maize and soybean. Despite impacting global... -
Haplotype Analysis of the Pre-harvest Sprouting Resistance Locus Phs-A1 Revea...
Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is an important cause of quality loss in many cereal crops and is particularly prevalent and damaging in wheat. Resistance to PHS is therefore a... -
