Triticum aestivum Genome sequencing
Understanding common wheat domestication and improvement at a genomic level is important to inform future efforts to further improve the wheat grain yield potential. In this project, we resequenced 120 wheat accessions to analyze genomic variation dynamics during wheat domestication, genetic improvement and local breeding. This project will enable the confirmation of and identification of multiple loci and genes for important agronomic traits in wheat. This genetic resource should facilitate future wheat cultivar breeding.
