Journal Article
Othmeni, M., Grewal, S., Hubbart-Edwards, S., Yang, C., Scholefield, D., Ashling, S., …King, J. (2019). The use of pentaploid crosses for the introgression of Amblyopyrum muticum and D-genome chromosome segments into durum wheat.

The wild relatives of wheat provide an important source of genetic variation for wheat improvement. Much of the work in the past aimed at transferring genetic variation from wild relatives into wheat has relied on the exploitation of the ph1b mutant,...

Rapid identification of homozygosity and site of wild relative introgressions in wheat through chromosome-specific KASP genotyping assays (2019)
Journal Article
Grewal, S., Hubbart-Edwards, S., Yang, C., Devi, U., Baker, L., Heath, J., …King, J. (2020). Rapid identification of homozygosity and site of wild relative introgressions in wheat through chromosome-specific KASP genotyping assays. Plant Biotechnology Journal, 18(3), 743-755. https://doi.org/10.1111/pbi.13241

For future food security, it is important that wheat, one of the most widely consumed crops in the world, can survive the threat of abiotic and biotic stresses. New genetic variation is currently being introduced into wheat through introgressions fro...

© 2019 The Author(s). Cultivated einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum L. subsp. monococcum, 2n = 2x = 14, AmAm) and its wild relative T. monococcum subsp. aegilopoides are important sources of economically useful genes that can be exploited for wheat (...

© 2019 The Author(s). Background: Triticum timopheevii (2n = 4x = 28; AtAtGG), is an important source for new genetic variation for wheat improvement with genes for potential disease resistance and salt tolerance. By generating a range of interspecif...

Thinopyrum intermedium (2n = 6x = 42, StJrJvs) is one of the most promising reservoirs of useful genes including tolerance to abiotic stresses, perenniality and disease resistance not available in the cultivated bread wheat. The transfer of genetic d...

Wheat is one of the world’s most important sources of food. However, due to its evolution its genetic base has narrowed, which is severely limiting the ability of breeders to develop new higher yielding varieties that can adapt to the changing enviro...
