Wild emmer wheat is an excellent reservoir of genetic variability that can be utilized to improve cultivated wheat to address the challenges of the expanding world population and climate change. Bearing this in mind, we have collected a panel of 263 wild

Evolution of VRN-1 homoeologous loci in allopolyploids of Triticum and their diploid precursors
Background The key gene in genetic system controlling the duration of the vegetative period in cereals is the VRN1 gene, whose product under the influence of low temperature (vernalization) promotes the transition of the apical meristem cells into a ...

Genome–wide association mapping for heading date in oats under subtropical environments
: Selection for heading date has been a decisive factor to increase areas cropped with oats in Brazil. Although important to oat breeders, genomic regions controlling heading date have not been completely identified.

Transcriptome analysis of the vernalization response in barley (Hordeum vulgare) seedlings. [PDF]
Temperate cereals, such as wheat (Triticum spp.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare), respond to prolonged cold by becoming more tolerant of freezing (cold acclimation) and by becoming competent to flower (vernalization).

Background Wheat is one of the most widely planted crops worldwide. The heading date is important for wheat environmental adaptability, as it not only controls flowering time but also determines the yield component in terms of grain number per spike ...

Evaluation of the allelic variations in vernalisation (VRN1) and photoperiod (PPD1) genes and genetic diversity in a Spanish spelt wheat collection [PDF]
Allelic variation within genes controlling the vernalisation requirement (VRN1) and photoperiod response (PPD1) determines the adaptation of wheat to different environmental growing conditions as well as influences other traits related to grain yield ...
