TL;DR: An integrated and ordered physical, genetic and functional sequence resource that describes the barley gene-space in a structured whole-genome context and suggests that post-transcriptional processing forms an important regulatory layer.

TL;DR: A high-density tetraploid wheat consensus map is assembled by integrating 13 data sets from independent biparental populations involving durum wheat cultivars and their ancestor to facilitate a more effective integration and exploitation of genes and QTL for wheat breeding purposes.

TL;DR: It is shown how the gene content in these segments can be predicted through conservation of synteny with model cereal genomes, providing a route to rapid gene identification.

TL;DR: Several models of resistance to sharka disease are discussed considering the segregation frequencies, the QTL alignment in the two maps and the information gathered from the literature.

TL;DR: This study suggests that the regulation of pectin and hemicellulose metabolism is a promising target for improving wood quality of second generation bioenergy crops.
