Molecular Markers and Their Applications in Marker-Assisted Selection (MAS) in Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

open access: yesAgriculture, 2023
As one of the essential cereal crops, wheat provides 20% of the calories and proteins consumed by humans. Due to population expansion, dietary shift and climate change, it is challenging for wheat breeders to develop new varieties for meeting wheat ...

Nanopore RNA Sequencing Revealed Long Non-Coding and LTR Retrotransposon-Related RNAs Expressed at Early Stages of Triticale SEED Development

open access: yesPlants, 2020
The intergenic space of plant genomes encodes many functionally important yet unexplored RNAs. The genomic loci encoding these RNAs are often considered “junk”, DNA as they are frequently associated with repeat-rich regions of the genome.

Functional Allium fistulosum Centromeres Comprise Arrays of a Long Satellite Repeat, Insertions of Retrotransposons and Chloroplast DNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The centromere is a unique part of the chromosome combining a conserved function with an extreme variability in its DNA sequence. Most of our knowledge about the functional centromere organization is obtained from species with small and medium genome ...

Marker-assisted selection of qMrdd8 to improve maize resistance to rough dwarf disease

open access: yesBreeding Science, 2020
Maize rough dwarf disease (MRDD) is caused by viruses in the Fijivirus genus in the family Reoviridae. MRDD resistance can be improved by a combination of marker-assisted selection (MAS) and conventional breeding strategies.
