Since its domestication in the Fertile Crescent~ 8000 to 10,000 years ago, wheat has
undergone a complex history of spread, adaptation, and selection. To get better insights into …

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 …

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 …

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the world's most important crops; however, a low
level of genetic diversity within commercial breeding accessions can significantly limit …

Wheat (Triticum spp.) is one of the founder crops that likely drove the Neolithic transition to
