Journal ArticleDOI

A high density GBS map of bread wheat and its application for dissecting complex disease resistance traits.

TL;DR: The consensus map should provide a useful basis for analyzing genome-wide variation of complex traits in bread wheat and can be explored as genetic markers to be used in genomic applications in wheat breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using genetic mapping and genomics approaches in understanding and improving drought tolerance in pearl millet

TL;DR: An overview is provided of information on the genetic maps developed in pearl millet for mapping drought tolerance traits and their applications in identifying and characterizing DT-QTLs and how closely spaced gene-based markers within this drought tolerance (DT)-QTL are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integration of gene-based markers in a pearl millet genetic map for identification of candidate genes underlying drought tolerance quantitative trait loci.

TL;DR: A map based on genes with assigned functional roles in plant adaptation to drought and other abiotic stresses is reported and many of these candidate genes were found to have significant association with QTLs of grain yield, flowering time and leaf rolling under drought stress conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring and Mobilizing the Gene Bank Biodiversity for Wheat Improvement

TL;DR: The molecular diversity of 1,423 spring bread wheat accessions representing major global production environments was investigated using high quality genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) loci, and gene-based markers for various adaptive and quality traits, finding thousands of new SNP variations in the landraces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genotyping safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) cultivars by DNA fingerprints

TL;DR: The start of molecular biology programme targeting nuclear genome of safflower, a major world oilseed crop about whose genetics very little is known is reported.
