"Editing the conserved IPA1-TB1 regulatory module reshapes plant architecture and enhances tillering in wheat

This study uses CRISPR/Cas9 to edit TaIPA1 and TaTB1 in wheat, showing enhanced tillering and grain weight without affecting spikelet number.

Origin and evolution of the bread wheat D genome

The paper analyzes the genetic composition and history of the bread wheat D genome using a pangenome of its donor species, revealing contributions from discrete subpopulations of Aegilops tauschii.

Guava cv. Allahabad Safeda Chromosome scale assembly and comparative genomics decodes breeder choice marker trait association for pink pulp colour

The paper presents a chromosome-scale guava genome assembly and identifies a gene associated with pink pulp color through comparative genomics and marker-trait association analysis.

Whole genome resequencing and comparative genome analysis of three Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici pathotypes prevalent in India

The paper resequences and compares three Indian Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici pathotypes to study their evolution and identify virulence-associated genes.

Targeted resurrection of chromosomal arm 1RS in two elite wheat lines with 1BL/1RS translocation for improved end-use quality

The paper describes the targeted resurrection of chromosomal arm 1RS in wheat lines to improve end-use quality by eliminating Sec-1 and retaining GluB3/GliB1, resulting in higher yield traits.

Efficient curation of genebanks using next generation sequencing reveals substantial duplication of germplasm accessions

The paper uses next generation sequencing to identify and remove duplicated germplasm accessions in genebanks, revealing over 50% duplication in Aegilops tauschii collections.

Development and molecular characterization of wheat-Aegilops peregrina Introgression Lines with resistance to leaf rust and stripe rust

The paper develops and characterizes wheat-Aegilops peregrina introgression lines with resistance to leaf rust and stripe rust, identifying lines with varying resistance profiles.
