Sequencing of chloroplast genomes from wheat, barley, rye and their relatives provides a detailed insight into the evolution of the Triticeae tribe. [PDF]
Using Roche/454 technology, we sequenced the chloroplast genomes of 12 Triticeae species, including bread wheat, barley and rye, as well as the diploid progenitors and relatives of bread wheat Triticum urartu, Aegilops speltoides and Ae. tauschii.

Molecular diversity and landscape genomics of the crop wild relative Triticum urartu across the Fertile Crescent [PDF]
SummaryModern plant breeding can benefit from the allelic variation that exists in natural populations of crop wild relatives that evolved under natural selection in varying pedoclimatic conditions. In this study, next‐generation sequencing was used to generate 1.3 million genome‐wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on ex situ collections of ...

An ankyrin-repeat and WRKY-domain-containing immune receptor confers stripe rust resistance in wheat
Wheat stripe rust is a major disease of wheat caused by a fungal pathogen. Here the authors report the map-based cloning of YrU1, a stripe rust resistance gene from Triticum urartu, a diploid progenitor of common wheat, and show it encodes a NLR protein ...

PCR-SSCP: a method to fingerprinting sequence variability in plant gene pool using the Iranian wild diploid Triticum gene pool as a case study [PDF]
As a case study, the genotypic polymorphism of the Iranian material of diploid Triticum was screened based on internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) of the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) using single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis. This is a simple

ANIONIC PEROXIDASE GENE POLYMORPHISM IN WHEAT
The results postulated a close genetic proximity of the peroxidase gene AK333699 of Triticum aestivum L. among Triticum L. species. At the same time - T. compactum Host, T. durum Desf., T. macha Dekapr. & Menabde, T.

Resistance of Triticum species to cereal aphids
The resistance of Triticum ssp. to English grain aphid (Sitobion avenae F.) and bird cherry-oat aphid (Rhopalosiphum padi L.) has been studied in different regions of Russia and the former Soviet Union. The dependence of resistance to aphids on the wheat

Genome-Wide Analysis of NLR Disease Resistance Genes in an Updated Reference Genome of Barley
Barley is one of the top 10 crop plants in the world. During its whole lifespan, barley is frequently infected by various pathogens. In this study, we performed genome-wide analysis of the largest group of plant disease resistance (R) genes, the ...
