De novo annotation of the wheat pangenome reveals complexity and diversity of the hexaploid wheat pan-transcriptome

This study annotates the wheat pan-transcriptome de novo and identifies gene diversity and expression patterns across multiple wheat cultivars and tissues.

Whole genome sequencing uncovers the structural and transcriptomic landscape of hexaploid wheat/Ambylopyrum muticum introgression lines

This study uses whole genome sequencing to analyze hexaploid wheat/Ambylopyrum muticum introgression lines, identifying structural disruptions and gene expression patterns associated with introgression.

A novel approach to develop wheat chromosome-specific KASP markers for detecting Amblyopyrum muticum segments in doubled haploid introgression lines

The paper develops chromosome-specific KASP markers for detecting Amblyopyrum muticum segments in wheat doubled haploid introgression lines using whole genome sequencing and SNP discovery.

Gene-based mapping of trehalose biosynthetic pathway genes reveals association with source- and sink-related yield traits in a spring wheat panel

The paper maps trehalose biosynthetic pathway genes to yield traits in spring wheat, finding significant associations and heritability contributions.

Analysis of the recombination landscape of hexaploid bread wheat reveals genes controlling recombination and gene conversion frequency

The paper analyzes recombination patterns in hexaploid wheat, identifies genes controlling recombination and gene conversion, and highlights a novel RecQ helicase gene involved in gene conversion.

Hidden variation in polyploid wheat drives local adaptation

The paper identifies hidden genetic and epigenetic variation in polyploid wheat that contributes to local adaptation and suggests using methylation and transposon diversity for breeding.
