Journal ArticleDOI

The carotenoid biosynthetic and catabolic genes in wheat and their association with yellow pigments

TL;DR: The genome-wide association study based on genotyping a tetraploid wheat collection with 81,587 gene-associated SNPs validated quantitative trait loci (QTLs) previously detected in biparental populations and discovered new QTLs for grain colour-related traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carotenoid Pigment Content in Durum Wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var durum): An Overview of Quantitative Trait Loci and Candidate Genes.

TL;DR: The main goal of the present review is to summarize the knowledge about the genetic regulation of the accumulation of pigment content in durum wheat grain and describe the genetic improvements obtained by using breeding approaches in the last two decades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic dissection of the relationships between grain yield components by genome-wide association mapping in a collection of tetraploid wheats.

TL;DR: The results showed that QTL analysis for detecting TKW or KNS alleles useful for improving grain yield potential should consider the pleiotropic effects of the QTL or the association to other QTLs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Candidate Genes and Genome-Wide Association Study of Grain Protein Content and Protein Deviation in Durum Wheat

TL;DR: The combined approaches of candidate genes and genome-wide association mapping led to a better understanding of the genetic relationships between grain storage proteins and grain yield per spike, and provided useful information for marker-assisted selection programs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a High-Density SNP-Based Linkage Map and Detection of QTL for β-Glucans, Protein Content, Grain Yield per Spike and Heading Time in Durum Wheat

TL;DR: This study provides additional information on QTL for important agronomic traits that could be useful for marker-assisted breeding to obtain new genotypes with commercial and nutritional relevance.
