Genomics in wheat improvement: Progress and perspectives

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) remains a major source of food and calories globally, yet its vast genome, polyploidy, and high number of repetitive sequences make genomic research challenging in this crop. In this review, we discuss the progress and future perspectives of genome research in wheat. Current efforts focus on the establishment of

Effect of VRN1 and PPD1 genes on anthesis date and wheat growth

, 2017
Phasic development of wheat is largely determined by the interaction of the VRN1 and PPD1 genes with vernalising temperature and photoperiod. VRN1 and PPD1 are regulatory genes, known to influence freezing tolerance, plant morphology and grain yield as

Transcriptional outputs and condensates – formation and function

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1145-1154, February 2026.
Summary The dynamic spatiotemporal organization of macromolecules is key to the proper function of the cell, allowing the exquisite regulation of diverse processes from gene expression to enzymatic function. The formation of biomolecular condensates via phase separation (PS) acts as a general mechanism for selectively concentrating proteins, nucleic ...

The mRNA sequence polymorphisms of flowering key genes in bolting sensitive or tolerant sugar beet genotypes

BioTechnologia, 2018
One of the most important characteristics of sugar beet planting in temperate climates is the tolerance against early bolting. Understanding the genetic control of sugar beet flowering can help to develop the bolting-tolerant cultivars.

Direct links between the vernalization response and other key traits of cereal crops [PDF]

Transcription of the VERNALIZATION1 gene (VRN1) is induced by prolonged cold (vernalization) to trigger flowering of cereal crops, such as wheat and barley. VRN1 encodes a MADS box transcription factor that promotes flowering by regulating the expression

REM34 and REM35 Control Female and Male Gametophyte Development in Arabidopsis thaliana

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The REproductive Meristem (REM) gene family encodes for transcription factors belonging to the B3 DNA binding domain superfamily. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the REM gene family is composed of 45 members, preferentially expressed during flower, ovule, and ...

The structure and allelic diversity of the self‐incompatibility locus (S‐locus) in diploid potatoes inferred from genome sequences and transcriptome data from styles and pollen

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Gametophytic self‐incompatibility (GSI) is a reproductive strategy to prevent inbreeding and promote outcrossing. Studies to understand molecular and evolutionary aspects of the self‐compatibility (SC)/self‐incompatibility (SI) system in the Solanaceae have been conducted using several genera including Petunia Juss., Nicotiana L., and Solanum ...

Chromosome Substitutions with Dominant Loci Vrn-1 and their Effect on Developmental Stages of Wheat

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2004
Wheat substitution lines which change winter to spring growth habit were obtained due to substitutions of homoeologous group 5 chromosomes carrying dominant genes Vrn-A1, Vrn-B1 and Vrn-D1 into the genetic backgrounds of the winter varieties Zdar ...

The role of double-stranded break repair in the creation of phenotypic diversity at cereal VRN1 loci

, 2007
Nonhomologous repair of double-stranded breaks, although fundamental to the maintenance of genomic integrity in all eukaryotes, has received little attention as to its evolutionary consequences in the generation and selection of phenotypic diversity ...

Genetic mapping of agronomically important traits in einkorn wheat

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
Abstract Bread wheat, a global staple food, has seen a significant reduction in genetic diversity due to domestication and intensive breeding. Diploid einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L.) is a valuable resource for enhancing the genetic pool of bread wheat.
