Genome sequencing and comparison of five Tilletia species to identify candidate genes for the detection of regulated species infecting wheat

IMA Fungus, 2019
Tilletia species cause diseases on grass hosts with some causing bunt diseases on wheat (Triticum). Two of the four species infecting wheat have restricted distributions globally and are subject to quarantine regulations to prevent their spread to new ...

A preliminary report on the identification of SSR markers for bunt (Tilletia sp.) resistance in wheat

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2011
Common bunt and dwarf bunt, caused by Tilletia caries (DC) Tul., T. foetida (Wallr) Liro., and T. controversa, respectively, can still cause yield and quality losses, despite the availability of effective chemical treatments.

Transferring useful rye genes to wheat, using triticale as a bridge

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2011
Rye has already proven to be a good donor of genes for improving important traits and diversity in wheat breeding. The agronomic advantages of wheat-rye translocations, as well as their detrimental pleiotropic effects,were shown to be dependent on the ...

Heat‐Induced Toxicants: Sensory Appeal Distracts Consumers' Attention From Potential Toxicological Risks of Thermally Processed Foods

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
The central paradox of thermal processing of foods. (A) The application of heat (e.g., frying, baking, grilling) to food initiates complex chemical reactions, most notably the Maillard reaction and thermal degradation of protein, lipids, and carbohydrate. (B) These reactions create a desirable sensory experience characterized by enticing aromas, golden‐

Pathogenicity Patterns of Austrian Common Bunt Isolates on 42 Winter Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Lines

Plant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 2, Page 270-282, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In organic winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), common bunt (CB) caused by Tilletia caries and Tilletia laevis is one of the most serious diseases affecting grain yield and quality. Most cultivars are susceptible to CB, and even if a cultivar possesses resistance against a certain race, it may be susceptible to another one.

Aroma, Flavor, and Textural Drivers of Acceptance in Unflavored Pea Protein Isolates

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The growing popularity of plant‐based proteins, particularly pea protein, is driven by health benefits and sustainability. However, despite the increasing demand, undesirable sensory attributes hinder consumer acceptance. This study aimed to identify the key sensory drivers of acceptance for unflavored pea protein isolates and to compare ...

Genetic Gains in Durum Wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum) Across the Globe: Yield, Quality and Adapting for Variable Weather Patterns

Plant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 1, Page 142-165, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum [Desf.] Husnot) is cultivated globally and used to produce pasta, couscous, bulgur and other semolina products. With the growing world population and increasing food demand, it is pertinent to understand past trends in global food production to shape future endeavours.

Smart Ungulates: What Sheep and Goats' Performances in a Reversed‐Reward Contingency Task Tell Us About the Evolution of Cognitive Flexibility

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study shows that young goats outperform sheep in the reversed‐reward contingency task, which is a cognitive test requiring both inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility. The results highlight the importance of cognitive flexibility when solving this type of task, and suggest that the differences between both species may reflect social and ...

Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

Genome‐wide association studies reveal genetic control of nutritional quality, milling traits, and agronomic characteristics in oat (Avena sativa L.)

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Marker‐trait associations (MTAs) are invaluable to the understanding of biological processes and implementation of marker‐assisted selection (MAS) to increase genetic gain in modern breeding programs. In this study, a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was performed to identify MTAs that influence oat nutritional quality, as well as ...
