TL;DR: A high-density EST chromosome bin map of wheat homoeologous group 2 chromosomes to determine the distribution of ESTs, construct a consensus map of group 2 ESTs), investigate synteny, examine patterns of duplication, and assess the colinearity with rice of EST's assigned to the group 2 consensus bin map are constructed.

TL;DR: Gene ontology (GO) classification of mapped ESTs was not significantly different for homoeologous group 3 chromosomes compared to the other groups and large- and small-scale differences in gene order conservation was detected.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The identified trans‐acting additive QTL can be utilized to manipulate CO frequency and distribution in the large polyploid wheat genome opening the possibility to improve the efficiency of gene pyramiding and reducing the deleterious genetic load in the low‐recombining pericentromeric regions of chromosomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
SNP Discovery for mapping alien introgressions in wheat
Vijay K. Tiwari,Shichen Wang,Sunish K. Sehgal,Jan Vrána,Bernd Friebe,Marie Kubaláková,Praveen Chhuneja,Jaroslav Doležel,Eduard Akhunov,Bhanu Kalia,Jamal S. M. Sabir,Bikram S. Gill,Bikram S. Gill +12 more
TL;DR: The development of a large number of SNP markers will facilitate the precise introgression and monitoring of alien segments in crop breeding programs and further enable mapping and cloning novel genes from the wild relatives of crop plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene editing of the wheat homologs of TONNEAU1-recruiting motif encoding gene affects grain shape and weight in wheat.

TL;DR: The study showed how integrating CRISPR‐Cas9 system with cross‐species comparison can help to uncover the function of a gene fixed in wheat for allelic variants targeted by domestication selection and select targets for engineering new gene variants for crop improvement.
