TL;DR: The present review elaborates the progress and prospects of GAB for improving climate change resilience in crops, which is likely to play an ever increasing role in the effort to ensure global food security.

TL;DR: The state of the art of genomic‐assisted breeding for the most important staples that feed the world is reviewed, and how to use and adapt such genomic tools to accelerate development of both major and minor crops with desired traits that enhance adaptation to, or mitigate the effects of climate change is reviewed.

TL;DR: Analysis show this large, diverse, and highly recombined MAGIC population to be a powerful resource for the genetic dissection of target traits in wheat, and it is well-placed to efficiently exploit ongoing advances in phenomics and genomics.

TL;DR: Morphological analyses and Physiological experiments show that the semi-dwarf phenotype of Rht8 lines is due to shorter internodal segments along the wheat culm, achieved through reduced cell elongation, and that the very high resolution potential of the plant material generated is crucial for the eventual cloning of RHT8.

TL;DR: The application of association mapping and genomic selection for key breeding targets using a large panel of elite winter wheat varieties and a large volume of agronomic data suggests that whilst AM offers potential for application in both research and breeding, GS represents an exciting opportunity to select key traits.
