Carotenoid pigment content is an important quality trait as it confers a natural bright yellow
color to pasta preferred by consumers (whiteness vs. yellowness) and nutrients, such as …

Carotenoids are C40 isoprenoids synthesized by plants, as well as some bacteria, fungi and
algae, that have been reported to be responsible for a number of benefits conferred on …

Yellow rust (YR) or stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striformis f. sp tritici Eriks (Pst), is a major
challenge to resistance breeding in wheat. A genome wide association study (GWAS) was …

Exploring the genetic variability in yield and yield-related traits is essential to continue
improving genetic gains. Fifty-nine Argentinian durum wheat cultivars were analyzed for …

We untangled key regions of the genetic architecture of grain yield (GY) in CIMMYT spring
bread wheat by conducting a haplotype-based, genome-wide association study (GWAS) …

Context Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) adaptation is highly dependent on crop lifecycle
duration, particularly the time at which flowering occurs in a specific environment. Frost, low …

The aim of this work was to analyze the genetic diversity and linkage disequilibrium in a
collection of 168 durum wheat accessions (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum) of different …

Abstract Background Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum Desf. Husn) is the main
staple crop used to make pasta products worldwide. Under the current climate change …

Abstract Development of new wheat cultivars combining good local adaptation, disease
resistance and grain quality represents an important strategy component for national food …

Leaf rust (LR) and stripe rust (YR) are important diseases in wheat producing areas
worldwide and cause severe yield losses under favorable environmental conditions when …
