An Update of Recent Use of Aegilops Species in Wheat Breeding [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Aegilops species have significantly contributed to wheat breeding despite the difficulties involved in the handling of wild species, such as crossability and incompatibility.

Addition of Aegilops U and M Chromosomes Affects Protein and Dietary Fiber Content of Wholemeal Wheat Flour [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Cereal grain fiber is an important health-promoting component in the human diet. One option to improve dietary fiber content and composition in wheat is to introduce genes from its wild relatives Aegilops biuncialis and Aegilops geniculata.

Evaluation of alpha-gliadin celiac disease epitopes in some Aegilops species containing the D genome [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyWheat gluten protein contains toxic peptides that trigger celiac disease in genetically susceptible individuals. These toxic peptides are primarily found in gliadin fractions, which are largely derived from the D subgenome of allohexaploid wheat ...

Expansion of the gamma-gliadin gene family in
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012 Background The gamma-gliadins are considered to be the oldest of the gliadin family of storage proteins in Aegilops/Triticum. However, the expansion of this multigene family has not been studied in an evolutionary perspective.

Drought stress affects the protein and dietary fiber content of wholemeal wheat flour in wheat/Aegilops addition lines. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Wild relatives of wheat, such as Aegilops spp. are potential sources of genes conferring tolerance to drought stress. As drought stress affects seed composition, the main goal of the present study was to determine the effects of drought stress on the ...

Refined chloroplast annotations, repeat profiles, and phylogenomic evidence reveal maternal lineage shifts and independent evolution in the Triticum-Aegilops complex [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground The Triticum-Aegilops complex has a complex reticulate evolutionary history shaped by multiple hybridization and polyploidization events. While nuclear genome relationships have been extensively explored, the maternal inheritance patterns ...
