DNA sequence-based mapping and comparative genomics of the genome of (Pursh) Á. Löve versus wheat ( L.) and barley ( L.).

Bluebunch wheatgrass (referred to as BBWG) [ (Pursh) Á. Löve] is an important rangeland Triticeae grass used for forage, conservation, and restoration. This diploid has the basic genome that occurs also in many polyploid Triticeae species, which serve as a gene reservoir for wheat improvement.
