Genomic prediction reveals unexplored variation in grain protein and lysine content across a vast winter wheat genebank collection

Genomic prediction reveals unexplored variation in grain protein and lysine content across a vast winter wheat genebank collection

Globally, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major source of proteins in human nutrition despite its unbalanced amino acid composition. The low lysine content in the protein fraction of wheat can lead to protein-energy-malnutrition prominently in developing countries. A promising strategy to overcome...
