Powdery mildew is one of the most devastating foliar diseases in wheat production. The wild relative (2 = 10 = 70) has been widely used in wheat genetic improvement due to its superior resistance to both biotic and abiotic stresses. In the present study, two wheat- introgression lines named SN0293-2 and SN0293-7 were developed from the progenies of a cross between the octoploid SNTE20 and common wheat, including the elite cultivar Jimai 22. They had a novel powdery mildew resistance gene (temporarily named ) putatively from pyramided with and , exhibiting excellent resistance at both the seedling and adult stages. Sequential GISH-FISH detected no signal of in these two lines but a pair of T1BL·1RS in SN0293-2. Chromosomal structural variations were also observed obviously in SN0293-2 and SN0293-7. Through the Wheat 660K SNP array, 157 SNPs, 134 of which were on 6A, were found to be specific to . Based on the data combined with DNA re-sequencing, seven specific markers, including one CAPS marker on 2B and six CAPS and Indel markers on 6A, were developed, confirming their wheat- introgression nature. Furthermore, the two lines displayed positive plant height and produced more kernels and higher 1,000-grain weight. Excellent resistance with desirable agronomic traits makes them valuable in wheat breeding programs.

The agronomical interest of hybrid wheat has long been a matter of debate. Compared to maize where hybrids have been successfully grown for decades, the mixed results obtained in wheat have been attributed at least partially to the lack of heterotic groups. The wheat genome is known to be strongly partitioned and characterized by numerous presence/absence variations and alien introgressions which have not been thoroughly considered in hybrid breeding.

Article Synopsis
- Wheat is the second-most consumed staple food in India, and rising heat waves have highlighted the need for developing heat-tolerant wheat varieties to ensure food security.
- A study used a mapping population of backcross introgression lines (BILs) derived from a heat-tolerant wild wheat relative to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for traits related to terminal heat tolerance during optimal and heat-stressed conditions.
- The research led to the discovery of 30 QTLs associated with heat tolerance traits on multiple chromosomes, providing valuable insights and potential markers for genomic breeding aimed at improving heat resilience in wheat plants.

Chromosomal rearrangements (CRs) often cause phenotypic variations. Although several major rearrangements have been identified in Triticeae, a comprehensive study of the order, timing, and breakpoints of CRs has not been conducted. Here, we reconstruct high-quality ancestral genomes for the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of the Triticeae, and the MRCA of the wheat lineage (Triticum and Aegilops).

The genus species are found predominantly in the Mediterranean region. They possess an array of agronomically essential traits, such as resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, high protein content, and better grain quality, and are thus a valuable genetic resources for wheat improvement. In recent decades, there has been significant progress in the development of wheat- genetic stocks, leading to the successful transfer of beneficial genes from into cultivated wheat.

Soil salinity adversely affects plant growth and development, reducing the yield of most crops, including wheat. The highly salt-tolerant wheat germplasm lines W4909 and W4910 were derived from a cross between two moderately salt-tolerant lines, the Chinese Spring (CS)/ disomic addition line AJDAj5 (AJ) and the Ph-inhibitor line (Ph-I) derived from CS/. Molecular markers for gene introgressions in W4909 and W4910 were not reported.
