Reliable DNA Markers for a Previously Unidentified, Yet Broadly Deployed Hessian Fly Resistance Gene on Chromosome 6B in Pacific Northwest Spring Wheat Varieties.

Hessian fly [ (Say)] is a major pest of wheat ( L.) throughout the United States and in several other countries. A highly effective and economically feasible way to control Hessian fly is with resistant cultivars.

Development of the Wheat Practical Haplotype Graph database as a resource for genotyping data storage and genotype imputation.

To improve the efficiency of high-density genotype data storage and imputation in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), we applied the Practical Haplotype Graph (PHG) tool. The Wheat PHG database was built using whole-exome capture sequencing data from a diverse set of 65 wheat accessions.
