Several new genomics technologies have become available that offer long-read sequencing
or long-range mapping with higher throughput and higher resolution analysis than ever …

Although DNA and RNA sequencing has a history spanning five decades, large-scale
massively parallel sequencing, or next-generation sequencing (NGS), has only been …

Advances in genomics have expedited the improvement of several agriculturally important
crops but similar efforts in wheat (Triticum spp.) have been more challenging. This is largely …

Until recently, achieving a reference‐quality genome sequence for bread wheat was long
thought beyond the limits of genome sequencing and assembly technology, primarily due to …

Sequence assembly of large and repeat-rich plant genomes has been challenging,
requiring substantial computational resources and often several complementary sequence …

An important assessment prior to genome assembly and related analyses is genome
profiling, where the k-mer frequencies within raw sequencing reads are analyzed to estimate …

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 …

We used 20 de novo genome assemblies to probe the speciation history and architecture of
gene flow in rapidly radiating Heliconius butterflies. Our tests to distinguish incomplete …

The rapid development and application of molecular marker assays have facilitated genomic
selection and genome‐wide linkage and association studies in wheat breeding. Although …

A decade ago, the value of Nicotiana benthamiana as a tool for plant molecular biologists
was beginning to be appreciated. Scientists were using it to study plant-microbe and protein …
