Current wheat yield and consumption is considered in the context of the historical
development of wheat, from early domestication through to modern plant breeding, the …

Synthetic hexaploid wheat (SHW) that combines novel and elite genes from the tetraploid
wheat Triticum turgidum L. and wild ancestor Aegilops tauschii Coss., has been used to …

Incorporation of genetic diversity into elite wheat (Triticum aestivum L., 2n= 6x= 42,
AABBDD) cultivars has long been recognized as a means of improving wheat productivity …

While genotype× environment interactions (G× E) impede progress in plant breeding, efforts
have focused more on their statistical analysis than on characterizing crop environments per …

Synthetic hexaploid (SH) wheat (AABBD'D') is developed by artificially generating a fertile
hybrid between tetraploid durum wheat (Triticum turgidum, AABB) and diploid wild goat …

In wheat, tillering and water-soluble carbohydrates (WSCs) in the stem are potential traits for
adaptation to different environments and are of interest as targets for selective breeding …

More than half a million wheat genetic resources are resting in gene banks worldwide.
Unlocking their hidden favorable genetic diversity for breeding is pivotal for enhancing grain …

Crop yield must increase to keep pace with growing global demand. Past increases in crop
production have rarely been attributable to an individual innovation but have occurred when …

Early generation selection (EGS) aims to accelerate genetic yield gain by applying selection
pressure for desirable traits at early generations within breeding programmes. This study …

The capacity of wheat to store water soluble carbohydrates (WSC) in the stem is regarded as
a promising trait to buffer yield in environments with limited water availability. A high …
