Genetic resource optimization: a core collection of tetraploid wheat from 2,254 NBRP-wheat accessions

BMC Plant Biology
Background Tetraploid wheat, comprising both Emmer wheat (Triticum turgidum, AABB genome) and Timopheevii wheat (T. timopheevii, AAGG genome), harbors rich genetic diversity that remains underutilized in modern breeding.

Wheat breeding approaches for designing wheat to thrive in a warmer world

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 754-763, May 2026.
Wheat is a vital food crop, accounting for approximately 20% of daily calories and protein consumed worldwide. However, modern‐day wheat is under pressure from global change. The improvement rate of wheat yields is not keeping up with the demand of our growing population. Furthermore, abiotic and biotic stressors are becoming more prevalent. This paper

Living by the lake: Plant food diversity in a prehistoric lake‐dwelling community in the Republic of North Macedonia

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S2, Page S47-S68, May 2026.
Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...

Underutilised crops in Europe: An interdisciplinary approach towards sustainable practices

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S2, Page S31-S46, May 2026.
Abstract In the context of a rapidly growing global population and significant climatic and environmental change, there is an urgent need to produce nutritious food in a sustainable manner. Some crops are underutilised in Europe, despite their suitability to local environments, viability for sustainable production and potential to improve diets.

TaPHL7 Transcription Factor Regulates Utilisation of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2522-2537, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Macronutrients nitrogen and phosphorus are essential for plant growth and development, thus being crucial for the productivity of crops. However, the molecular mechanism regulating the utilisation of nitrogen and phosphorus remains elusive. Here, we show that the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) transcription factor PHOSPHATE STARVATION RESPONSE ...

Characterization of the polymorphism detected for the granule‐bound starch synthase (WX gene) in wild einkorn wheat

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2437-2446, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The WX gene encodes the granule‐bound starch synthase I or waxy protein, which is the sole enzyme responsible for amylose synthesis in wheat seeds. Wild einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L. ssp. aegilopoides Link em. Thell.) could be an important source of variation for this gene. RESULTS This study assessed the WX gene variability

Introgression from durum wheat landraces in wild emmer wheat (Triticum dicoccoides (Ko¨ rn. ex Asch. et Graebner) Schweinf)

, 2021
Introgression was detected within wild emmer wheat population in Jordan during the year 2000. Wild emmer wheat was found to occur in non-disturbed habitat, very close to cultivated durum wheat in northern parts of Jordan, and it was found in cultivated ...

Diverse reference genomes detect variants in the US winter wheat

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The first hexaploid bread wheat reference genome from Chinese Spring was released in 2018 by the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium and is considered as the industry standard reference. To explore the effects of different reference genomes on variant discovery, 29 hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars from the ...

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
