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... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Diversity analysis of 80,000 wheat accessions reveals consequences and opport...
Undomesticated wild species, crop wild relatives, and landraces represent sources of variation for wheat improvement to address challenges from climate change and the growing... -
Breeding crops to feed 10 billion
Crop improvements can help us to meet the challenge of feeding a population of 10 billion, but can we breed better varieties fast enough? Technologies such as genotyping,... -
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... -
MARPLE, a point-of-care, strain-level disease diagnostics and surveillance to...
Effective disease management depends on timely and accurate diagnosis to guide control measures. The capacity to distinguish between individuals in a pathogen population with... -
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... -
Discovery and characterisation of a new leaf rust resistance gene introgresse...
Wild wheat species Aegilops peregrina (UpUpSpSp), harbours resistance to various diseases including leaf rust and stripe rust. Inheritance studies in a recombinant inbred line... -
Stem rust resistance in wheat is suppressed by a subunit of the mediator complex
AbstractStem rust is an important disease of wheat that can be controlled using resistance genes. The gene SuSr-D1 identified in cultivar ‘Canthatch’ suppresses stem rust... -
Conserved residues in the wheat (Triticum aestivum) NAM-A1 NAC domain are req...
NAC transcription factors contain five highly conserved subdomains which are required for protein dimerisation and DNA binding. Few residues within these subdomains have been... -
Yield reduction historically associated with the Aegilops ventricosa 7DV intr...
Wheat wild relatives represent an important source of genetic variation, but introgression of agronomically relevant genes, such as for disease resistance, may lead to the... -
Aegilops umbellulata introgression carrying leaf rust and stripe rust resista...
Leaf rust and stripe rust are among the most damaging diseases of wheat worldwide. Wheat cultivation based on limited number of rust resistance genes deployed over vast areas... -
Exome sequencing of bulked segregants identified a novel TaMKK3-A allele link...
Abstract Key message Using bulked segregant analysis of exome sequence, we fine-mapped the ABA-hypersensitive mutant ERA8 in a wheat backcross population to the TaMKK3-A locus... -
Dmc1 is a candidate for temperature tolerance during wheat meiosis
We initially assessed the effects of low temperature on meiotic chromosome synapsis and crossover formation in the hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) variety ‘Chinese... -
Development of mlo-based resistance in tetraploid wheat against wheat powdery...
Powdery mildew is a severe disease in wheat. In barley, durable resistance exists, based on non-functionality of the Mlo gene. As a model to analyse the effects of mutagenesis... -
Global transcriptome analysis uncovers the gene co-expression regulation netw...
Wheat grain development is a robust biological process that largely determines grain quality and yield. In this study, we investigated the grain transcriptome of winter wheat... -
Resistance gene cloning from a wild crop relative by sequence capture and ass...
Genetic resistance is the most economic and environmentally sustainable approach for crop disease protection. Disease resistance (R) genes from wild relatives are a valuable...
