Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are effectively applied to detect the marker trait
associations (MTAs) using whole genome-wide variants for complex quantitative traits in …

Key message Genetic atlas, reliable QTL and candidate genes of yield component traits in
wheat were figured out, laying concrete foundations for map-based gene cloning and …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a major staple food crop worldwide. Genetic dissection of
important agronomic traits is essential for continuous improvement of wheat yield to meet the …

Genotyping‐by‐sequencing has enabled approaches for genomic selection to improve
yield, stress resistance and nutritional value. More and more resource studies are emerging …

Wheat is a staple crop produced in arid and semi‐arid areas worldwide, and its production is
frequently compromised by water scarcity. Thus, increased drought tolerance is a priority …

Flour colour, kernel hardness, grain protein content and wet gluten content are important
quality properties that determine end use in bread wheat. Here, a wheat 90K genotyping …

Genome wide association studies (GWAS) are important in discerning the genetic
architecture of complex traits such as biomass allocation for improving drought tolerance …

Key message A genome-wide association analysis identified diverse loci for seedling and
adult plant resistance to leaf rust and stripe rust. KASP markers were developed and …

Grain yield is a trait of paramount importance in the breeding of all cereals. In wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.), yield has steadily increased since the Green Revolution, though the …

Rapid detection of allelic variation and identification of advantage haplotypes responsible
for spike related traits play a crucial role in wheat yield improvement. The released genome …
