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 …

The rapid development and application of molecular marker assays have facilitated genomic
selection and genome‐wide linkage and association studies in wheat breeding. Although …

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 …

There is a rapidly rising trend in the development and application of molecular marker
assays for gene mapping and discovery in field crops and trees. Thus far, more than 50 SNP …

Improving our understanding of the genes regulating grain yield can contribute to the
development of more productive wheat varieties. Previously, a highly significant QTL …

Increases in the yield of wheat during the Green Revolution of the late 20th century were
achieved through the introduction of Reduced height (Rht) dwarfing genes. The Rht‐B1 and …

Key message Phenotypic and genetic analysis of six spike and kernel characteristics in
wheat revealed geographic patterns as well as long-term trends arising from breeding …
