Quantitative trait locus analysis for spikelet shape-related traits in wild wheat progenitor Aegilops tauschii: Implications for intraspecific diversification and subspecies differentiation. [PDF]
Wild diploid wheat Aegilops tauschii, the D-genome progenitor of common wheat, carries large genetic variation in spikelet and grain morphology. Two differentiated subspecies of Ae.

Abstract Biofortification aims to reduce the prevalence of micronutrient malnutrition in vulnerable populations by breeding staple crops with an increase in nutrient density. Assessing the phenotypic variation of grain minerals and their genetic control under common management practices can provide a strong foundation for nutrition‐related trait ...

Natural variation in the evolutionarily conserved F‐box gene SDEF promotes seed dormancy in rice
SUMMARY Insufficient seed dormancy causes pre‐harvest sprouting (PHS) and severe yield losses in rice; however, genetic resources with practical breeding value remain limited. Here, we isolated a major dormancy gene, SDEF, via map‐based cloning using chromosomal single segment substitution lines (SSSLs), identifying a functional SNP (Arg‐to‐Trp) as the

Chromosome variation and HMW glutenins in synthetic hexaploid wheats (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccum/Aegilops tauschii) [PDF]
Seven synthetic hexaploid wheats (Triticum dicoccum/Aegilops tauschii) were subjected for investigation. Numerical variation of chromosome number in F1 hybrids between three synthetics and common wheat varieties, was recorded. Hexaploid amphiploids (SHW)

Genome-Wide Association Mapping of Grain Micronutrients Concentration in Aegilops tauschii [PDF]
Bread wheat is an important and the most consumed cereal worldwide. However, people with predominantly cereal-based diets are increasingly affected by micronutrient deficiencies, suggesting the need for biofortified wheat varieties. The limited genetic diversity in hexaploid wheat warrants exploring the wider variation present in wheat wild relatives ...

Wheat wild relatives are untapped genetic resources from salinity and drought hit areas. This study presents differential comparative morphophysiological responses of these species and modern wheat cultivars under saline conditions. Salt resistant species produce more shoot and root biomass under saline conditions through salt exclusion and/or tissue ...

Durum Wheat cv. Svevo Reference Genome Rel.2.0: A Comprehensive Tool for Wheat Genomics
ABSTRACT Advancements in plant genome sequencing and assembly have enabled the production of increasingly accurate and contiguous genome sequences. Here, we present the chromosome‐level assembly of the durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum, cv. Svevo) reference genome produced using accurate long‐reads, optical mapping and Hi‐C. The new assembly

Genome-Wide Association Study of Morpho-Physiological Traits in Aegilops tauschii to Broaden Wheat Genetic Diversity [PDF]
Aegilops tauschii, the D-genome donor of bread wheat, is a storehouse of genetic diversity that can be used for wheat improvement. This species consists of two main lineages (TauL1 and TauL2) and one minor lineage (TauL3).

Population genomic analysis of Aegilops tauschii identifies targets for bread wheat improvement [PDF]
Aegilops tauschii, the diploid wild progenitor of the D subgenome of bread wheat, is a reservoir of genetic diversity for improving bread wheat performance and environmental resilience. Here we sequenced 242 Ae.
