A membrane associated tandem kinase from wild emmer wheat confers broad-spectrum resistance to powdery mildew [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsCrop wild relatives offer natural variations of disease resistance for crop improvement. Here, we report the isolation of broad-spectrum powdery mildew resistance gene Pm36, originated from wild emmer wheat, that encodes a tandem kinase with a ...

Genome-Wide Investigation and Functional Verification of the ZIP Family Transporters in Wild Emmer Wheat [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 The zinc/iron-regulated transporter-like protein (ZIP) family has a crucial role in Zn homeostasis of plants. Although the ZIP genes have been systematically studied in many plant species, the significance of this family in wild emmer wheat (Triticum ...

Variation in Stripe Rust Resistance and Morphological Traits in Wild Emmer Wheat Populations
Agronomy, 2019 Wild emmer wheat (Triticum dicoccoides), the tetraploid progenitor of cultivated wheats, is indigenous to the Near East Fertile Crescent. An important center of distribution is found today in and around the catchment area of the upper Jordan Valley in ...

Using a wheat line with wild emmer genetic material to improve modern Triticum aestivum L. varieties by a complex of economically useful traits [PDF]
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекцииWild emmer Triticum dicoccoides samples have a high content of protein and microelements in their grain, but when crossed with common wheat varieties, undesirable properties of a wild relative (low yield, spike fragility and difficult threshing) can be ...

Characterizing Agronomic and Shoot Morphological Diversity across 263 Wild Emmer Wheat Accessions
Agriculture (Switzerland), 2023 Wild emmer, the direct progenitor of modern durum and bread wheat, has mostly been studied for grain quality, biotic, and abiotic stress-related traits. Accordingly, it should also have a certain amount of diversity for morphological and agronomic traits.

Genome-Wide Association Study for Grain Micronutrient Concentrations in Wheat Advanced Lines Derived From Wild Emmer [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Wheat is one of the important staple crops as the resources of both food and micronutrient for most people of the world. However, the levels of micronutrients (especially Fe and Zn) in common wheat are inherently low. Biofortification is an effective way

Improved Genome Sequence of Wild Emmer Wheat Zavitan with the Aid of Optical Maps [PDF]
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019 Wild emmer (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides) is the progenitor of all modern cultivated tetraploid wheat. Its genome is large (> 10 Gb) and contains over 80% repeated sequences. The successful whole-genome-shotgun assembly of the wild emmer (accession

Two complementary NLRs from wild emmer wheat confer powdery mildew resistance. [PDF]
Nat CommunPowdery mildew is a devastating disease that affects wheat yield and quality globally. Here, we identify a powdery mildew resistance locus MlIW39 from wild emmer wheat through map-based cloning, mutagenesis, and stable genetic transformation. Unlike many
