The paper identifies a wheat mutant with altered root and shoot architecture due to a mutation in an AUX/IAA gene, confirmed through genetic mapping and RNA-seq analysis.

This study uses RNA-seq to analyze gene expression during lupin seed development, identifying key genes and transcription factors involved in metabolic activity and storage protein synthesis.

The paper establishes the OzWheat genome-to-phenome platform to integrate wheat genomes and phenomes, identifying candidate genes and gene-environment interactions for trait improvement.
