Development of DNA Markers From Physically Mapped Loci in Aegilops comosa and Aegilops umbellulata Using Single-Gene FISH and Chromosome Sequences

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Breeding of agricultural crops adapted to climate change and resistant to diseases and pests is hindered by a limited gene pool because of domestication and thousands of years of human selection.

Variability in Physiological Traits Reveals Boron Toxicity Tolerance in Aegilops Species

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Boron (B) is an important micronutrient required for the normal growth and development of plants. However, its excess in the soil causes severe damage to plant tissues, which affects the final yield. Wheat, one of the main staple crops, has been reported

Mapping current and potential future distributions of the oak tree (Quercus aegilops) in the Kurdistan Region, Iraq

Ecological Processes, 2020
Background The oak tree (Quercus aegilops) comprises ~ 70% of the oak forests in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI). Besides its ecological importance as the residence for various endemic and migratory species, Q.

Characterizing chloroplast genomes and inferring maternal divergence of the Triticum–Aegilops complex

Scientific Reports, 2021
The Triticum (wheat)–Aegilops (goatgrass) complex has been extensively studied, but the evolutionary history of polyploid wheats has not been fully elucidated.

Cloning of the broadly effective wheat leaf rust resistance gene Lr42 transferred from Aegilops tauschii [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2022
The wheat wild relative Aegilops tauschii was previously used to transfer the Lr42 leaf rust resistance gene into bread wheat. Lr42 confers resistance at both seedling and adult stages, and it is broadly effective against all leaf rust races tested to ...

Potential of Aegilops sp. for Improvement of Grain Processing and Nutritional Quality in Wheat (Triticum aestivum)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Wheat is one of the most important staple crops in the world and good source of calories and nutrition. Its flour and dough have unique physical properties and can be processed to make unique products like bread, cakes, biscuits, pasta, noodles etc ...

Drought stress affects the protein and dietary fiber content of wholemeal wheat flour in wheat/Aegilops addition lines.

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 ...

Supernumerary B chromosomes of Aegilops speltoides undergo precise elimination in roots early in embryo development [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2020
Not necessarily all cells of an organism contain the same genome. Some eukaryotes exhibit dramatic differences between cells of different organs, resulting from programmed elimination of chromosomes or their fragments.
