HapAsmbl: A reference‐aided pipeline for assembling haplotypes in Nanopore amplicon sequence data of polymorphic populations [PDF]
Premise Advances in long‐read sequencing offer new possibilities to investigate haplotype diversity across multiple genes in plants and other taxa through multi‐locus, long‐read amplicon sequencing (multi‐locus LRAS).

Most of the natural variation in wheat vernalization response is determined by allelic differences in the MADS-box transcription factor VERNALIZATION1 (VRN1). Extended exposures to low temperatures during the winter (vernalization) induce VRN1 expression

Cytoplasm of the Wild Species Aegilops mutica Reduces VRN1 Gene Expression in Early Growth of Cultivated Wheat: Prospects for Using Alloplasmic Lines to Breed Varieties Adapted to Global Warming [PDF]
In a warm winter due to climate warming, it is necessary to suppress early flowering of autumn-sown wheat plants. Here, we propose the use of cytoplasmic genome effects for this purpose.

Cold-induced nucleosome dynamics linked to silencing of Arabidopsis FLC [PDF]
Temperature influences nucleosome dynamics, and thus chromatin, to regulate gene expression. Such mechanisms underlie the epigenetic silencing of Arabidopsis FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) by prolonged cold.

Breeding potential of Spanish bread wheat landraces: genetic variability in vernalization and photoperiod sensitivity [PDF]
Flowering time and grain filling, regulated by temperature-responsive (vernalization) and day length (photoperiod) genes, are critical factors in wheat production. In this study, we analyzed genetic variation at the VRN-A1, VRN-B1, PPD-A1, PPD-B1, PPD-D1,

Vernalization requirement and the chromosomal VRN1-region can affect freezing tolerance and expression of cold-regulated genes in Festuca pratensis [PDF]
Plants adapted to cold winters go through annual cycles of gain followed by loss of freezing tolerance (cold acclimation and deacclimation). Warm spells during winter and early spring can cause deacclimation, and if temperatures drop, freezing damage may

Evaluation of allelic diversity of VRN1 and Ppd1 genes in different bread wheat cultivars [PDF]
Major flowering time genes including vernalization and photoperiod response play a crucial role in the geographical and agronomical adaptations, and potential yield in cereals.

Epigenetic control on transcription of vernalization genes and whole-genome gene expression profile induced by vernalization in common wheat [PDF]
Vernalization is necessary for winter wheat to flower. However, it is unclear whether vernalization is also required for spring wheat, which is frequently sown in fall, and what molecular mechanisms underlie the vernalization response in wheat varieties.

Most perennial and winter annual temperate grasses have a vernalization requirement (VR) for flowering, that is, they require a cold period before they can flower in response to long days.

Ambient temperature influenced co-expression network of major developmental, circadian, and photoreceptor genes in bread wheat [PDF]
The developmental process of bread wheat comprises of two major phases: the generative development of the apices from double ridge to terminal spikelet formation, followed by the intensive stem elongation.
