Ancient Wheat Species Can Extend Biodiversity of Cultivated Crops [PDF]

, 2011
Wheat genetic resources may be grown in organic farming systems or in less favourable areas for bread wheat species. Characteristics of hulled wheat species (23 varieties of einkorn, emmer wheat, spelt wheat) were studied and evaluated within a two-year ...

Screening for root and shoot traits in different wheat species and wild wheat relatives

Botan‪ical Sciences, 2017
Background: Definitive comparison on root traits of wheat landraces, ancient wheats and wild wheat relatives are scarce. Those adaptive genetic resources with superior root and shoot traits can be utilized in breeding programs.

Genomic characterization of pre‐Green Revolution wheat landraces from the Nepalese and Bhutanese Himalayas reveals geographically structured diversity [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) landraces collected before the widespread regional adoption of Green Revolution cultivars provide a historical record of locally maintained germplasm. We characterized a panel of 202 accessions collected from Nepal and Bhutan between 1952 and 1958. Genotyping by Random Amplicon Sequencing‐Direct yielded 30,228 high‐

Genetic diversity and population structure of wheat landraces in Southern Winter Wheat Region of China. [PDF]

BMC Genomics
Abstract Background Wheat landraces are considered a valuable source of genetic diversity that can be used in breeding programs. It is useful to evaluate the genetic diversity in breeding studies such as marker-assisted selection (MAS), genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and genomic selection.

Presence of celiac disease epitopes in modern and old hexaploid wheat varieties: wheat breeding may have contributed to increased prevalence of celiac disease [PDF]

, 2010
Gluten proteins from wheat can induce celiac disease (CD) in genetically susceptible individuals. Specific gluten peptides can be presented by antigen presenting cells to gluten-sensitive T-cell lymphocytes leading to CD.

Evaluation of Glycemic Index of Six Different Samples of Commercial and Experimental Pasta Differing in Wheat Varieties and Production Processes

Foods, 2021
Pasta is a staple food of the Mediterranean Diet, and it is traditionally made of durum wheat semolina. In Sicily, durum wheat production and its transformation into semolina, bread, and pasta are well-developed economic sectors.

Biochemical and phenological characterization of diverse wheats and their association with drought tolerance genes

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Drought is one of the most important wheat production limiting factor, and can lead to severe yield losses. This study was designed to examine the effect of drought stress on wheat physiology and morphology under three different field capacities (FC) viz.

Unlocking the Patterns of the Tunisian Durum Wheat Landraces Genetic Structure Based on Phenotypic Characterization in Relation to Farmer’s Vernacular Name

Agronomy, 2021
During the 1970s, Tunisian durum wheat landraces were replaced progressively by modern cultivars. These landraces are nowadays maintained by smallholder farmers in some ecological niches and are threatened gradually by extinction resulting in the ...

Differences in the Morphological Characteristics of the Land Races of the Soft and Emmer Wheat in Relation to the Modern Varieties [PDF]

, 2009
For the organic farmers there is important question which varieties of wheat are right for organic farming in Less Favoured Areas. Modern varieties of wheat are bred in the conditions of conventional (high imput) farming.
