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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the Lr34/Yr18 Rust Resistance Region in Wheat Germplasm
James A. Kolmer,Ravi P. Singh,David F. Garvin,Libby Viccars,Harinder M. William,Julio Huerta-Espino,Francis C. Ogbonnaya,Harsh Raman,Simon Orford,Harbans Bariana,Evans Lagudah +10 more
TL;DR: The robustness of the csLV34 marker in postulating the likely occurrence of Lr34/Yr18 across a wide range of wheat germplasm and its utility in wheat breeding was confi rmed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implementation of markers in Australian wheat breeding
H. A. Eagles,Harbans Bariana,Francis C. Ogbonnaya,Greg J. Rebetzke,G. J. Hollamby,Robert J Henry,P Henschke,M. Carter +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that the major use of DNA markers was for selection for traits of substantial economic importance, which were primarily determined by a single gene, and where the non-marker assay was expensive and unreliable.
Book ChapterDOI
