Fusarium head blight is among the most extensively studied fungal diseases of wheat and
other small grain cereals due to its impact on yield and quality, but particularly due to its …

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 …

The world cropping area for wheat exceeds that of any other crop, and high grain yields in
intensive wheat cropping systems are essential for global food security. Breeding has raised …
