Genome assemblies for the eight wheat founders of the NIAB Elite MAGIC experimental population
The wheat 'NIAB Elite MAGIC' (Multi-parent Advanced Generation Inter-Cross) experimental population was created at NIAB in the United Kingdom (UK) by intercrossing eight UK-relevant bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars over multiple generations to generate ~1,000 inbred progeny lines. The population facilitates wheat genetic research and improvement.
