Abstract:Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the most important food crops with an urgent need for increase in its production to feed the growing world.Triticum timopheevii(2n = 4x = 28) is an allotetraploid wheat wild relative species containing the Atand G genomes that has been exploited in many pre-breeding programmes for wheat improvement. In this study, we report the generation of a chromosome-scale reference genome assembly ofT. timopheeviiaccession PI 94760 based on PacBio HiFi reads and chromosome conformation … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
