Assessing genetic diversity to breed competitive biofortified wheat with enhanced grain Zn and Fe concentrations
(Frontiers, 2019)
Breeding wheat with enhanced levels of grain zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) is a cost-effective, sustainable solution to malnutrition problems. Modern wheat varieties have limited variation in grain Zn and Fe, but large-scale ...

Genetics of greenbug resistance in synthetic hexaploid wheat derived germplasm
(Frontiers, 2019)
The greenbug, Schizaphis graminum Rondani, significantly reduces wheat, Triticum aestivum L., grain yields if not controlled. Host plant resistance (HPR) can protect yield, is environmentally friendly and easy to use. Our ...
Article
Hybrid wheat prediction using genomic, pedigree, and environmental covariables interaction models
(Crop Science Society of America, 2019)
In this study, we used genotype × environment interactions (G×E) models for hybrid prediction, where similarity between lines was assessed by pedigree and molecular markers, and similarity between environments was accounted ...
Article
QTL mapping for micronutrients concentration and yield component traits in a hexaploid wheat mapping population
(Elsevier, 2019)
Bread wheat is a major staple cereal provides more than 20% of dietary energy and protein supply to global population. However, with increasing population growth, the problem of nutritional deficiencies is increasingly ...
Article
Integrating genomic-enabled prediction and high-throughput phenotyping in breeding for climate-resilient bread wheat
(Springer, 2019)
Genomic selection and high-throughput phenotyping (HTP) are promising tools to accelerate breeding gains for high-yielding and climate-resilient wheat varieties. Hence, our objective was to evaluate them for predicting ...
Article
Economic benefits of blast-resistant biofortified wheat in Bangladesh: the case of BARI Gom 33
(Elsevier, 2019)
The first occurrence of wheat blast in 2016 threatened Bangladesh's already precarious food security situation. The Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), together with the International Maize and Wheat Improvement ...
Article
Genetic contribution of synthetic hexaploid wheat to CIMMYT’s spring bread wheat breeding germplasm
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019)
Synthetic hexaploid (SH) wheat (AABBD’D’) is developed by artificially generating a fertile hybrid between tetraploid durum wheat (Triticum turgidum, AABB) and diploid wild goat grass (Aegilops tauschii, D’D’). Over three ...
Article
Variations in straw fodder quality and grain–Straw relationships in a mapping population of 287 diverse spring wheat lines
(Elsevier, 2019)
A wheat association mapping population consisting of 287 diverse spring wheat lines were evaluated for three years in one location (Varanasi) and out of these for one year across three locations (Karnal, Dharwad and Varanasi) ...
Article
Joint use of genome, pedigree, and their interaction with environment for predicting the performance of wheat lines in new environments
(Genetics Society of America, 2019)
Genome-enabled prediction plays an essential role in wheat breeding because it has the potential to increase the rate of genetic gain relative to traditional phenotypic and pedigree-based selection. Since the performance ...
