The paper identifies the origin of the predominant North American Pst lineage, PstS18, as a somatic hybridization event between PstS1 and an unknown lineage.

This study clones two genes, CNL and NL, underlying Yr84-mediated stripe rust resistance in wheat, revealing their coordinated function as sensor and helper NLRs.

The paper uses long-read sequencing to clone a resistance gene in wheat, resolving structural complexities and enabling its introgression into other wheat varieties.

The paper quantifies drought plasticity in tetraploid wheat using QTL analysis and identifies candidate genes for stress adaptation.

The paper shows that three yellow rust resistance genes in wheat are all encoded by the same locus Wtk1, but their resistance responses vary depending on genetic background.

The paper adjusts ionome element concentrations for phosphorus and sulfur variation in wheat, identifying QTLs and improving genetic understanding of mineral composition.

The paper identifies 12 grain protein content QTLs in a durum x wild emmer wheat RIL population across five environments, with 11 favorable alleles from wild emmer wheat.
