Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of polyploid wheat genomic diversity using a high-density 90 000 single nucleotide polymorphism array

TL;DR: The developed array and cluster identification algorithms provide an opportunity to infer detailed haplotype structure in polyploid wheat and will serve as an invaluable resource for diversity studies and investigating the genetic basis of trait variation in wheat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wild emmer genome architecture and diversity elucidate wheat evolution and domestication

TL;DR: A 10.1-gigabase assembly of the 14 chromosomes of wild tetraploid wheat, as well as analyses of gene content, genome architecture, and genetic diversity reveal genomic regions bearing the signature of selection under domestication.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The assembly of the genome of durum wheat cultivar Svevo enables genome-wide genetic diversity analyses highlighting modifications imposed by thousands of years of empirical selection and breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping QTLs Regulating Morpho‐physiological Traits and Yield: Case Studies, Shortcomings and Perspectives in Drought‐stressed Maize

TL;DR: Although QTL analysis is still time-consuming and resource-demanding, its integration with genomics and post-genomics approaches (e.g. transcriptome, proteome and metabolome analyses) will play an increasingly important role for the identification and validation of candidate genes affecting MPTs and GY.
