Among cereal crops, wheat has been identified as a major source for human food
consumption. Wheat breeders require access to new genetic diversity resources to satisfy …

Abstract Background Crop wild relatives (CWRs) are commonly used as a suitable genetic
reservoir for plant breeding. They can be used for enhancing the tolerance of plant varieties …

Knowledge of the natural patterns of genetic variation and their evolutionary basis is
required for sustainable management and conservation of wheat germplasm. In the current …

In this study, inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) and start codon targeted (SCoT) markers
were used for genetic diversity and relationship analysis of nine Salvia species. Twenty-one …

We assessed the molecular genetic diversity and relationships among some Aegilops and
Triticum species using 15 start codon-targeted (SCoT) polymorphism markers. A total of 166 …

Background Evaluation of genetic diversity and relationships among crop wild relatives is an
important task in crop improvement. The main objective of the current study was to estimate …

In the present investigation, 72 accessions of the Iranian poppy (Papaver bracteatum Lindl.)
were analyzed for genetic diversity and population structure using start codon targeted …

In this study, we selected 180 accessions from different wild relatives of wheat (Aegilops–
Triticum species) and tested them in the presence of a tolerant and a sensitive control variety …

This open access book covers a century of research on wheat genetics and evolution,
starting with the discovery in 1918 of the accurate number of chromosomes in wheat. We re …

The knowledge about genetic diversity in the wild relatives of wheat provides useful
information for breeding programs and gene pool management. In the present study, an …
