Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major crop that feeds 40% of the world's population.
Over the past several decades, advances in genomics have led to tremendous …

Salt stress limits the productivity of crops grown under saline conditions, leading to
substantial losses of yield in saline soils and under brackish and saline irrigation. Salt …

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 …

Bread wheat expanded its habitat from a core area of the Fertile Crescent to global
environments within~ 10,000 years. The genetic mechanisms of this remarkable …

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 …
