Genetic architecture of soluble arabinoxylan fibre in elite genotypes of bread wheat revealed by genome-wide association analysis

The paper identifies multiple additive loci controlling soluble arabinoxylan content in elite wheat germplasm, enabling marker-assisted breeding for increased dietary fibre in white flour.

Buying time - increasing yield potential in wheat by extending stem elongation duration

This study shows that extending stem elongation duration in wheat increases grain number and weight, with independent genetic factors affecting timing and yield components.

CONSTRUCTION OF A GENETIC MAP OF RILs DERIVED FROM WHEAT (T. AESTIVUM L.) VARIETIES PAMYATII AZIEVA X PARAGON USING HIGH-THROUGHPUT SNP GENOTYPING PLATFORM KASP - COMPETITIVE ALLELE SPECIFIC PCR

The paper constructs a genetic map for Kazakh bread wheat using KASP SNP markers to identify genes associated with agronomic traits.

Natural selection towards wild-type in composite cross populations of winter wheat

The paper tracks allelic frequency changes in wheat composite cross populations under different farming systems and finds natural selection towards wild-type alleles for plant height and phenology.

Identification of a major QTL and associated marker for high arabinoxylan fibre in white wheat flour

The paper identifies a major QTL and marker for high arabinoxylan fibre in white wheat flour using crosses with high and average AX cultivars.
