Genome-wide association analysis identifies the genetic basis of coleoptile length and its relationship with green revolution dwarfing genes in bread wheat

Genome-wide association mapping and functional annotation of loci conferring resistance to Pyrenophora teres f. teres in barley

The results demonstrate that NFNB resistance is polygenic and developmentally stage-dependent, with partly distinct mechanisms underlying adult plant and seedling resistance, with partly distinct mechanisms underlying adult plant and seedling resistance.

Genome-wide association analysis of fiber-related traits and identification of diagnostic SNP markers differentiating spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.) from bread wheat

Introduction Spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.) represents a valuable genetic resource within hexaploid wheat due to its high genetic diversity and adaptation to low-input agricultural systems; however, the genetic basis of its dietary fiber composition remains poorly understood. This study aimed to identify genomic regi...

Genome-Wide Association Study and Identification of Core Candidate Genes for Shoot and Root Length in Wheat During Germination

The genetic architecture and core candidate genes for shoot length (SL) and root length (RL) at the germination stage are dissected and seven core candidate genes for SL and 13 for RL are identified, including three pleiotropic genes regulating both traits.

Multi-Omics Analysis of White Leaf Spot in Maize Resistance: Integrated GWAS, BSA-Seq, and RNA-Seq Identifies Candidate Genes and Facilitates Germplasm Evaluation

Analysis of race-specific resistance indicated that the response of highly resistant maize varieties to WLS is primarily characterized by the accumulation of defense-related substances and enhanced activity across multiple energy metabolism pathways, which will provide essential resistance sources for subsequent breedi...

Genetic identification and characterization of a locus controlling productive tiller number with breeding value in Chinese endemic wheat

Genome-wide Association Study of Total Root Weight at the Seedling Stage in Korean Rice Cultivars (Oryza sativa L.)

Root biomass is an important determinant of seedling vigor that contributes to water and nutrient acquisition in rice (Oryza sativa L.). In this study, we evaluated the total root weight (TRW) of 127 Korean rice cultivars, comprising 110 temperate japonica (TEJ) and 17 Tongil-type cultivars, under hydroponic conditions...
