Wheat is one of the most important cereal crops for the global food security. Due to its narrow genetic base, modern bread wheat cultivars face challenges from increasing abiotic and biotic stresses.

Introgression of the Aegilops speltoides Su1-Ph1 Suppressor into Wheat
Meiotic pairing between homoeologous chromosomes in polyploid wheat is inhibited by the Ph1 locus on the long arm of chromosome 5 in the B genome.

Development of Deletion Lines for Chromosome 3D of Bread Wheat
The identification of genes of agronomic interest in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is hampered by its allopolyploid nature (2n = 6x = 42; AABBDD) and its very large genome, which is largely covered by transposable elements.

A comparative analysis of chromosome pairing at metaphase I in interspecific hybrids between durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L.) and the most widespread Aegilops species. [PDF]
Homoeologous metaphase I (MI) associations in hybrids between durum wheat and its wild allotetraploid relatives Aegilops neglecta, Ae. triuncialis and Ae.

Understanding the system of a basic eukaryotic cellular mechanism like meiosis is of fundamental importance in plant biology. Moreover, it is also of great strategic interest in plant breeding since unzipping the mechanism of chromosome specificity ...

Homoeologs: What Are They and How Do We Infer Them? [PDF]
The evolutionary history of nearly all flowering plants includes a polyploidization event. Homologous genes resulting from allopolyploidy are commonly referred to as 'homoeologs', although this term has not always been used precisely or consistently in ...

Aegilops tauschii, the D-genome donor of hexaploid wheat, provides a source of genetic variation that could be used for tetraploid (durum) wheat improvement.

Reducing the size of an alien segment carrying leaf rust and stripe rust resistance in wheat
Background Leaf and stripe rusts are two major wheat diseases, causing significant yield losses. The preferred way for protecting wheat from rust pathogens is by introgression of rust resistance traits from wheat-related wild species.
