In the past decade we witnessed a revolutionary development of wheat genomics and
functional genomics, thanks to the development of next generation sequencing (NSG) …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), with a large genome (16000 Mb) and high proportion (∼ 80%)
of repetitive sequences, has been a difficult crop for genomics research. However, the …

Bread wheat is not only an important cereal crop but also a model for study of an
allopolyploid plant with a large, highly repetitive genome. Advances in next-generation …

Hexaploid wheat (common wheat/bread wheat) is one of the most important cereal crops in
the world and a model for research of an allopolyploid plant with a large, highly repetitive …

Key message We discussed the most recent efforts in wheat functional genomics to discover
new genes and their deployment in breeding with special emphasis on advances in Asian …

Wheat is the heterogenous polyploid plant with large chromosomes and high level of
repetitive sequences. These characters have limited the progress of wheat genomics …

The characterization of agronomically important genes has great potential for the
improvement of wheat. However, progress in wheat genetics and functional genomics has …

Wheat can be greatly improved by identifying genes that are significant to agronomy.
Although progress in wheat genetics and genomics has been limited by the genome's vast …

This volume of proceedings is a collection of papers that were presented at the 12th
International Wheat Genetics Symposium (IWGS) held in Yokohama, Japan, September 8 …

The precise origin of the wheat plant as we know it today is not known. Wheat evolved from
wild grasses, probably somewhere in the Near East. A very likely place of origin is the area …
