Introgressive hybridization of common wheat is still one of the most effective way of wheat genome enrichment with resistance genes to stresses. In this context, T genome of Amblyopyrum muticum is a promising one for such wheat improvement. Genome substitution amphidiploid Aurotica (AABBTT) with A and B subgenomes from common wheat cultivar Aurora and with T subgenome from Amblyopyrum muticum is characterized by high level of cold resistance. In wheat, this characteristic associated with chromosomes of the homoeologous group 5. Comparative microsatellite analysis of Aurora and Aurotica identified 9 SSR loci specific to D genome which produced other amplicons with Aurotica DNA spectrum. Primers for these loci were used for screening (Aurora x Aurotica)F5 progeny (234 plants) in purpose to find those individuals, which carry 5T chromosome or its fragments in their genomes. In this study were detected 24 plants with disomic substitutions 5D/5T. All of them were offspring of five F4 plants, which in turn derived from two F2 individuals. A significant number of plants contain recombinant chromosome 5D/5T. The recombination event could occur in any generation since F2.

Wheat is an important cereal crop globally and in the United States, and is the largest crop grown by acreage in Colorado. In June 2023, we observed wheat fields displaying severe yellowing and virus-like disease symptoms in plants across seven eastern Colorado counties (Yuma, Prowers, Kit Carson, Washington, Sedgewick, Morgan, and Weld). Symptomatic plants were prominent in fields and appeared bright yellow, with ringspots, mosaic patterning, and streaking on leaves.

Allohexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the major crops worldwide, however there is very limited research on the transcriptional programmes of underlying cell type specification. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was used to unravel the transcriptome heterogeneity of cells and the composition of cell types in broad-spectrum organisms.

Background: Improving the germination performance of bread wheat is an important breeding target in many wheat-growing countries where seedlings are often established in soils with high salinity levels. This study sought to characterize the molecular mechanisms underlying germination performance in salt-stressed wheat. To achieve this goal, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed on 292 Iranian bread wheat accessions, including 202 landraces and 90 cultivars.

Global climate change leads to the increased occurrence of environmental stress (including drought and heat stress) during the vegetative and reproductive stages of cereal crop development. Thus, more attention should be given to developing new cereal cultivars with improved tolerance to environmental stress. However, during the development of new stress-tolerant cereal cultivars, the balance between improved stress responses (which occur at the expense of growth) and plant yield needs to be maintained.
