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
A changing climate for grassland research
Michael W. Humphreys,Rattan Yadav,Andrew J. Cairns,Lesley B. Turner,Janet Humphreys,Leif Skøt +5 more
TL;DR: Sustainability traits discussed here include stress resistance, cold and pathogeneses, and favourable agronomic characters (nutrient use efficiency, carbohydrate content, fatty acid content, winter survival, flowering time and biomass yield) and global warming will predictably affect temperature-sensitive traits such as vernalisation, and these traits are under investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discriminating the ancestral progenitors of hexaploid Festuca arundinacea using genomic in situ hybridization
Michael W. Humphreys,Howard Thomas,W. G. Morgan,M. R. Meredith,John Harper,Huw M. Thomas,Zbigniew Zwierzykowski,Marc Ghesquière +7 more
TL;DR: It was concluded that the tetraploid species Festuca arundinacea var.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of parental and recombined chromosomes in hybrid derivatives of Lolium multiflorum × Festuca pratensis by genomic in situ hybridization.
TL;DR: Genomic in situ hybridization was used to identify Festuca chromatin in mitotic chromosomes of Lolium multiflorum × Festuca pratensis hybrids and hybrid derivatives, indicating the suitability of GISH in showing the presence and location of introgressed genes.
