Shifting the limits in wheat research and breeding using a fully annotated reference genome

Rudi Appels, +207 more
- 17 Aug 2018 - 
TL;DR: This annotated reference sequence of wheat is a resource that can now drive disruptive innovation in wheat improvement, as this community resource establishes the foundation for accelerating wheat research and application through improved understanding of wheat biology and genomics-assisted breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wild emmer genome architecture and diversity elucidate wheat evolution and domestication

TL;DR: A 10.1-gigabase assembly of the 14 chromosomes of wild tetraploid wheat, as well as analyses of gene content, genome architecture, and genetic diversity reveal genomic regions bearing the signature of selection under domestication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Durum wheat genome highlights past domestication signatures and future improvement targets

Marco Maccaferri, +68 more
- 08 Apr 2019 - 
TL;DR: The assembly of the genome of durum wheat cultivar Svevo enables genome-wide genetic diversity analyses highlighting modifications imposed by thousands of years of empirical selection and breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of candidate genes, regions and markers for pre-harvest sprouting resistance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

TL;DR: This study identified candidate genes involved in abscissic acid (ABA) and gibberellin (GA) metabolism, and flowering time in four genomic regions of Brachypodium and rice respectively, in addition to 18 KASP markers for PHS resistance in wheat.
