Shifting the limits in wheat research and breeding using a fully annotated reference genome
INTRODUCTION Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the most widely cultivated crop on Earth,
contributing about a fifth of the total calories consumed by humans. Consequently, wheat …

[HTML][HTML] Analysis of the bread wheat genome using whole-genome shotgun sequencing
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a globally important crop, accounting for 20 per cent of
the calories consumed by humans. Major efforts are underway worldwide to increase wheat …

[HTML][HTML] A whole-genome shotgun approach for assembling and anchoring the hexaploid bread wheat genome
Polyploid species have long been thought to be recalcitrant to whole-genome assembly. By
combining high-throughput sequencing, recent developments in parallel computing, and …

A 4-gigabase physical map unlocks the structure and evolution of the complex genome of Aegilops tauschii, the wheat D-genome progenitor
The current limitations in genome sequencing technology require the construction of physical
maps for high-quality draft sequences of large plant genomes, such as that of Aegilops …

Cloning and characterization of a critical regulator for preharvest sprouting in wheat
Sprouting of grains in mature spikes before harvest is a major problem in wheat (Triticum
aestivum) production worldwide. We cloned and characterized a gene underlying a wheat …

Genomic characterization of drought tolerance-related traits in spring wheat
Drought tolerance was investigated in ‘C306’, one of the most drought tolerant wheat cultivars
bred in India in the 1960’s. An intervarietal mapping population of recombinant inbred …

Comparative analysis of syntenic genes in grass genomes reveals accelerated rates of gene structure and coding sequence evolution in polyploid wheat
Cycles of whole-genome duplication ( WGD ) and diploidization are hallmarks of eukaryotic
genome evolution and speciation. Polyploid wheat (Triticum aestivum) has had a massive …

A Distorted Circadian Clock Causes Early Flowering and Temperature-Dependent Variation in Spike Development in the Eps-3Am Mutant of Einkorn Wheat
Viable circadian clocks help organisms to synchronize their development with daily and
seasonal changes, thereby providing both evolutionary fitness and advantage from an …

[HTML][HTML] Cloning of the broadly effective wheat leaf rust resistance gene Lr42 transferred from Aegilops tauschii
The wheat wild relative Aegilops tauschii was previously used to transfer the Lr42 leaf rust
resistance gene into bread wheat. Lr42 confers resistance at both seedling and adult stages, …
