We used a novel approach that incorporated chromosome sorting, next-generation
sequencing, array hybridization, and systematic exploitation of conserved synteny with …

Allohexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) provides approximately 20% of calories
consumed by humans. Lack of genome sequence for the three homeologous and highly …

The grass family comprises the most important cereal crops and is a good system for
studying, with comparative genomics, mechanisms of evolution, speciation, and …

Because of the huge size of the common wheat (Triticum aestivum L., 2 n= 6 x= 42,
AABBDD) genome of 17,300 Mb, sequencing and mapping of the expressed portion is a …

Grain yield and grain weight of wheat are often decreased by water-limitation in the north-
eastern cropping belt of Australia. Based on knowledge that CIMMYT lines are well-adapted …

Background A genome-wide assessment of nucleotide diversity in a polyploid species must
minimize the inclusion of homoeologous sequences into diversity estimates and reliably …

EST-derived microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (eSSR) occur in expressed
sequence tags (EST). Here we report characteristics of eSSRs in the wheat genome …

Key message This manuscript describes the chromosomal location of a new source of stripe
rust resistance in wheat. DNA markers closely linked with the resistance locus were …

Aluminum toxicity is a major problem in agriculture worldwide. Among the cultivated
Triticeae, rye (Secale cereale L.) is one of the most Al tolerant and represents an important …

Qfhi. nau-4B is a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) against Fusarium graminearum
infection identified in the Fusarium head blight-resistant germplasm Wangshuibai. To fine …
