Exploring the rhizosphere of perennial wheat: potential for plant growth promotion and biocontrol applications [PDF]
Scientific ReportsPerennial grains, which remain productive for multiple years, rather than growing for only one season before harvest, have deep, dense root systems that can support a richness of beneficial microorganisms, which are mostly underexplored. In this work we isolated forty-three bacterial strains associated with the rhizosphere of the OK72 perennial wheat ...

Quantitative Differences in Rumen Epithelium Proteins in Lambs Fed Wheat, Perennial Wheat, or Perennial Wheat plus Lucerne. [PDF]
Proteomes, 2023 The value of crops such as perennial wheat (PW) for grain and grazing compared to conventional wheat (W), or the addition of lucerne to PW (PWL) is still being determined. This research sought to determine if these diets were associated with changes in the membranebound proteins that transport nutrients in the rumen epithelium (RE).

Perenniality, more than genotypes, shapes biological and chemical rhizosphere composition of perennial wheat lines. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2023 Perennial grains provide various ecosystem services compared to the annual counterparts thanks to their extensive root system and permanent soil cover. However, little is known about the evolution and diversification of perennial grains rhizosphere and its ecological functions over time.

Unveiling the root-rhizosphere environment of perennial wheat: a metabolomic perspective. [PDF]
BMC Plant BiolPerennial grain roots grow continuously, enhancing soil carbon sequestration and forming a "holobiont" with the microbiome, essential for nutrient acquisition and stress resilience. Consequently, perennial grains serve as ideal models for investigating long-term dynamics between root systems and the rhizosphere environment. Despite their potential, the

Development of Perennial Wheat Through Hybridization Between Wheat and Wheatgrasses: A Review
Engineering, 2018 Wheatgrasses (Thinopyrum spp.), which are relatives of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), have a perennial growth habit and offer resistance to a diversity of biotic and abiotic stresses, making them useful in wheat improvement. Many of these desirable traits from Thinopyrum spp. have been used to develop wheat cultivars by introgression breeding.

Prospect of Perennial Wheat in Agro-ecological System
Procedia Environmental Sciences, 2011 AbstractThe development of perennial crops through breeding would help deal with the multiple issues involving environmental conservation and food security in a world of shrinking resources. Perennial wheat offers a new solution to the long-standing problems of soil erosion and degradation associated with conventional annual small-grain cropping ...

Agronomic Assessment of Perennial Wheat and Perennial Rye as Cereal Crops
Agronomy Journal, 2012 Perennial wheat (Triticum aestivum L. × Thinopyrum spp.) and perennial rye (Secale cereale L. × S. montanum) are novel hybrid species under development as alternatives to annual cereal crops. We conducted a 2‐yr field study with a split plot design to evaluate agronomic performance, including yield, phenology, and biomass production, of perennial ...

Perennial Wheat Germ Plasm Lines Resistant to Eyespot, Cephalosporium Stripe, and Wheat Streak Mosaic [PDF]
Plant Disease, 2002 A perennial wheat cropping system on the Palouse Prairie of eastern Washington may provide an alternative to the Federal Conservation Reserve Program and reduce soil erosion while providing a harvestable crop for growers. Twenty-four perennial wheat germ plasm lines resulting from crosses between wheat and wheatgrass were evaluated under controlled ...

Breeding Perennial Grain Crops Based on Wheat
Crop Science, 2017 Wild relatives offer a diversity of traits potentially useful in crop improvement. Identification of major genes for resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, in conjunction with targeted introgression, has introduced some of these traits into cultivated varieties. The difficulty of transferring complex traits, and associated linkage drag, has limited

Desirable characteristics in perennial Triticeae collected in China for wheat improvement [PDF]
Hereditas, 2008 Perennial Triticeae in China contain an enormous gene pool that has a great potential for wheat improvement. Collecting expeditions to 12 provinces of Northern China have been carried out. It has been found that most collections of Agropyron mongolicum, A. cristatum, A. desertorum, and Leymus chinensis, h.
