Gene flow and introgression from domesticated plants into their wild relatives.

TL;DR: This article used population genetic theory to predict the evolutionary consequences of gene flow from crops to wild plants and discuss two applied consequences of crop-to-wild gene flow -the evolution of aggressive weeds and the extinction of rare species.

Use of wild relatives to improve salt tolerance in wheat

TL;DR: As several sources of improved Na+ "exclusion" are now known to reside on different chromosomes in various genomes of species in the Triticeae, further work to identify the underlying mechanisms and then to pyramid the controlling genes for the various traits might enable substantial gains in salt tolerance to be achieved.

The structure of the Aegilops tauschii genepool and the evolution of hexaploid wheat

TL;DR: Polymorphism in the lengths of restriction fragments at 53 single-copy loci, the rRNA locus Nor3, and the high-molecular-weight glutenin locus Glu1 was investigated in the D genome of hexaploid Triticum aestivum and that of Aegilops tauschii, and all appear to share a single D-genome genepool.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic relationships of Triticum and Aegilops and evidence for the origin of the A, B, and D genomes of common wheat (Triticum aestivum).

TL;DR: The phylogenetic hypothesis suggests that neither Triticum, Aegilops, nor Triticus plus Aegilop are monophyletic, and further suggests that the polyploid wheats of common wheat and tetraploid wheat are bothopolyploid.
