Despite being the world's most widely grown crop, research investments in wheat (Triticum
aestivum and Triticum durum) fall behind those in other staple crops. Current yield gains will …

To feed more than 9 billion people by 2050, increased food production must be
accomplished with reduced agricultural inputs in the face of climate change. Wild relatives of …

The effective utilization of natural variation has become essential in addressing the
challenges that climate change and population growth pose to global food security …

Key message Combined linkage analysis and association mapping identified genomic
regions associated with yield and drought tolerance, providing information to assist breeding …

Upland rice is a distinctive drought‐aerobic ecotype of cultivated rice highly resistant to
drought stress. However, the genetic and genomic basis for the drought‐aerobic adaptation …

Modern breeding imposed selection for improved productivity that largely influenced the
frequency of superior alleles underpinning traits of breeding interest. Therefore, molecular …

Background Long-term domestication and intensive breeding of crop plants aim to establish
traits desirable for human needs, and characteristics related to yield, disease resistance …

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) …

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 …

Wheat is among the most produced grain crops of the world and alone provides a fifth of the
world's calories and protein. Wheat has played a key role in food security since the crop …
