UDP-glucosyltransferase HvUGT13248 confers type II resistance to Fusarium graminearum in barley.

Fusarium head blight (FHB) of barley (Hordeum vulgare) causes yield losses and accumulation of trichothecene mycotoxins (e.g. deoxynivalenol [DON]) in grains.

Fast neutron mutagenesis in soybean enriches for small indels and creates frameshift mutations.

The mutagenic effects of ionizing radiation have been used for decades to create novel variants in experimental populations. Fast neutron (FN) bombardment as a mutagen has been especially widespread in plants, with extensive reports describing the induction of large structural variants, i.e.

Environmental Association Identifies Candidates for Tolerance to Low Temperature and Drought.

Barley ( ssp. ) is cultivated from the equator to the Arctic Circle. The wild progenitor species, , occupies a relatively narrow latitudinal range (∼30 - 40° N) primarily at low elevation (< 1,500 m).
