The effects of exogenous fibrolytic enzymes on the in vitro release of xylooligosaccharides and monosaccharides varies across six varieties of wheat (2022)
Journal Article
Dale, T., Bedford, M. R., King, J., Tucker, G. A., Brameld, J. M., & Parr, T. (2023). The effects of exogenous fibrolytic enzymes on the in vitro release of xylooligosaccharides and monosaccharides varies across six varieties of wheat. Animal Feed Science and Technology, 295, Article 115526. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anifeedsci.2022.115526

Wheat is a widely used cereal grain for pig and poultry feeds globally. Despite this, there are noticeable differences in its nutritive value, potentially due to varying characteristics like inherent non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) content and compos...

Assessing the potential of using the Langdon 5D(5B) substitution line for the introgression of Aegilops tauschii into durum wheat (2022)
Journal Article
Othmeni, M., Grewal, S., Walker, J., Yang, C., King, I. P., & King, J. (2022). Assessing the potential of using the Langdon 5D(5B) substitution line for the introgression of Aegilops tauschii into durum wheat. Frontiers in Plant Science, 13, Article 927728. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2022.927728

Aegilops tauschii, the D-genome donor of hexaploid wheat, provides a source of genetic variation that could be used for tetraploid (durum) wheat improvement. In addition to the genes for wheat quality on the D-genome, which differentiate between brea...

Journal Article
King, J., Grewal, S., Othmeni, M., Coombes, B., Yang, C., Walter, N., …King, I. (2022). Introgression of the Triticum timopheevii Genome Into Wheat Detected by Chromosome-Specific Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR Markers. Frontiers in Plant Science, 13, Article 919519. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2022.919519

Triticum timopheevii (2n = 28, AtAtGG) is a tetraploid wild relative species with great potential to increase the genetic diversity of hexaploid wheat Triticum aestivum (2n = 42, AABBDD) for various important agronomic traits. A breeding scheme that... Read More about Introgression of the Triticum timopheevii Genome Into Wheat Detected by Chromosome-Specific Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR Markers.

Identifying variation for N-use efficiency and associated traits in amphidiploids derived from hybrids of bread wheat and the genera Aegilops, Secale, Thinopyrum and Triticum (2022)
Journal Article
Nehe, A., King, J., King, I. P., Murchie, E. H., & Foulkes, M. J. (2022). Identifying variation for N-use efficiency and associated traits in amphidiploids derived from hybrids of bread wheat and the genera Aegilops, Secale, Thinopyrum and Triticum. PLoS ONE, 17(4 April), Article e0266924. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0266924

Future genetic progress in wheat grain yield will depend on increasing biomass and this must be achieved without commensurate increases in nitrogen (N) fertilizer inputs to minimize environmental impacts. In recent decades there has been a loss of ge...

Chromosome-specific KASP markers for detecting Amblyopyrum muticum segments in wheat introgression lines (2022)
Journal Article
Grewal, S., Coombes, B., Joynson, R., Hall, A., Fellers, J., Yang, C. Y., …King, J. (2022). Chromosome-specific KASP markers for detecting Amblyopyrum muticum segments in wheat introgression lines. Plant Genome, The, 15(1), Article e20193. https://doi.org/10.1002/tpg2.20193

Many wild-relative species are being used in prebreeding programs to increase the genetic diversity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Genotyping tools such as single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based arrays and molecular markers have been widely use...
