A robust KASP marker for selection of four pairs of linked leaf rust and stri...
Stripe rust and leaf rust are among the most devastating diseases of wheat, limiting its production globally. Wheat wild relatives harbour genetic diversity for new genes and... -
Evaluation of the susceptibility of modern, wild, ancestral, and mutational w...
Globally, bread wheat production is threatened by fungal diseases, including the devastating disease Septoria tritici blotch (STB). Given the global importance of STB, and the... -
Transcription factor retention through multiple polyploidisation steps in wheat
SummaryWhole genome duplication (WGD) is widespread in plant evolutionary history, but the mechanisms of non-random gene loss after WGD are debated. The gene balance hypothesis... -
ENHANCED GRAVITROPISM 2 encodes a STERILE ALPHA MOTIF-containing protein that...
Significance To date, the potential of utilizing root traits in plant breeding remains largely untapped. In this study, we cloned and characterized the ENHANCED... -
A Duplicated Copy of the Meiotic Gene ZIP4 Preserves up to 50% Pollen Viabili...
Although most flowering plants are polyploid, little is known of how the meiotic process evolves after polyploidisation to stabilise and preserve fertility. On wheat... -
Trend, Population Structure and Trait Mapping from 15 Years of National Varie...
ABSTRACTThere are now a rich variety of genomic and genotypic resources available to wheat researchers and breeders. However, the generation of high-quality and field-relevant... -
Wheat root systems as a breeding target for climate resilience
AbstractIn the coming decades, larger genetic gains in yield will be necessary to meet projected demand, and this must be achieved despite the destabilizing impacts of climate... -
The membrane-localized protein kinase MAP4K4/TOT3 regulates thermomorphogenesis
AbstractPlants respond to mild warm temperature conditions by increased elongation growth of organs to enhance cooling capacity, in a process called thermomorphogenesis. To this... -
Genome-wide association mapping identifies yellow rust resistance loci in Eth...
Durum wheat is an important cereal grown in Ethiopia, a country which is also its center for genetic diversity. Yellow (stripe) rust caused by Puccinia striiformis fsp tritici... -
Increased and ectopic expression of Triticum polonicum VRT-A2 underlies elong...
Flower development is a major determinant of yield in crops. In wheat, natural variation for the size of spikelet and floral organs is particularly evident in Triticum... -
Crossover-active regions of the wheat genome are distinguished by DMC1, the c...
The hexaploid bread wheat genome comprises over 16 gigabases of sequence across 21 chromosomes. Meiotic crossovers are highly polarized along the chromosomes, with elevation in... -
Distribution of <i>Puccinia striiformis</i> f. sp. <i>tritici</i> Races and V...
Stripe rust, caused by the fungal pathogen Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is a major threat to wheat (Triticum spp.) production worldwide. The objective of this study was... -
Genotypic differences in wheat yield determinants within a NAM population bas...
Future grain yield (GY) improvements require the identification of beneficial traits within the context of high yield potential and not just based on the pleiotropic effect of... -
Capturing and Selecting Senescence Variation in Wheat
Senescence is a highly quantitative trait, but in wheat the genetics underpinning senescence regulation remain relatively unknown. To select senescence variation and ultimately... -
Wheat Developmental Traits as Affected by the Interaction between Eps-7D and ...
Earliness per se (Eps) genes are important to fine tune adaptation, and studying their probable pleiotropic effect on wheat yield traits is worthwhile. In addition, it has been... -
Effect of Flowering Time-Related Genes on Biomass, Harvest Index, and Grain Y...
Grain yield (YLD) is a function of the total biomass (BM) and of partitioning the biomass by grains, i.e., the harvest index (HI). The most critical developmental stage for... -
Multiple wheat genomes reveal global variation in modern breeding
Advances in genomics have expedited the improvement of several agriculturally important crops but similar efforts in wheat (Triticum spp.) have been more challenging. This is... -
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... -
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
Crop productivity must increase at unprecedented rates to meet the needs of the growing worldwide population. Exploiting natural variation for the genetic improvement of crops...
