Wheat gene Sr60 encodes a protein with two putative kinase domains that confers resistance to stem rust. [PDF]

, 2020
Wheat stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is a devastating fungal disease threatening global wheat production. The present paper reports the identification of stem rust resistance gene Sr60, a race-specific gene from ...

Development of genome-specific primers for homoeologous genes in allopolyploid species: the waxy and starch synthase II genes in allohexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) as examples [PDF]

, 2010
Background In allopolypoid crops, homoeologous genes in different genomes exhibit a very high sequence similarity, especially in the coding regions of genes.

Genetic diversity at the Dhn3 locus in Turkish Hordeum spontaneum populations with comparative structural analyses [PDF]

, 2016
We analysed Hordeum spontaneum accessions from 21 different locations to understand the genetic diversity of HsDhn3 alleles and effects of single base mutations on the intrinsically disordered structure of the resulting polypeptide (HsDHN3).

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Identification of a candidate gene for a QTL for spikelet number per spike on wheat chromosome arm 7AL by high-resolution genetic mapping. [PDF]

, 2019
Key messageA high-resolution genetic map combined with haplotype analyses identified a wheat ortholog of rice gene APO1 as the best candidate gene for a 7AL locus affecting spikelet number per spike.

Genomic introgressions from wild relatives in the wheat genome alter meiotic dynamics in inter‐varietal hybrids

The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 5, March 2026.
SUMMARY The use of wild relatives to introduce original diversity in the genome of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an interesting approach to face the challenges of sustainable agriculture and the impact of climate change on wheat production. However, the influence of these wild‐species introgressions on meiosis in inter‐varietal wheat hybrids ...

Molecular diversity and landscape genomics of the crop wild relative Triticum urartu across the Fertile Crescent [PDF]

The Plant Journal, 2018
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 ...

Leveraging Knowledge of Traditional Italian Maize Landrace Diversity to Identify Signals of Local Adaptation

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change is the greatest challenge to modern agriculture. It significantly impacts agricultural systems through an increased frequency and intensity of extreme environmental events. Maize, a vital crop for global food security, is particularly vulnerable to these changes, highlighting the urgent need to develop resilient varieties.
