TL;DR: This draft genome sequence provides insight into the environmental adaptation of bread wheat and can aid in defining the large and complicated genomes of wheat species.

TL;DR: The current work represents the first comprehensive study of CDPK genes in bread wheat and provides a foundation for further functional study of this important gene family in Triticeae.

TL;DR: A chromosome-scale, high-quality reference genome of Aegilops tauschii, the donor of the wheat D genome, is generated, which accurately characterized genic loci, gene expression, pseudogenes, methylation, recombination ratios, microRNAs and especially TEs on chromosomes.

TL;DR: It is feasible to assemble the hexaploid wheat transcriptome from short reads and the assembled transcripts were comparable to Sanger-derived ESTs in terms of both continuity and accuracy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the molecular characterization of Rht-B1c, a dominant GAI allele in wheat that confers more extreme characteristics than its incompletely dominant alleles.
