Genetic Analysis and Transfer of Favorable Exotic QTL Alleles for Grain Yield Across D Genome Using Two Advanced Backcross Wheat Populations
Hexaploid wheat evolved through a spontaneous hybridization of tetraploid wheat (Triticum turgidum, AABB) with diploid wild grass (Aegilops tauschii, DD). Recent genome sequencing found alarmingly low genetic diversity and abundance of repeated sequences across D genome as compared to AB genomes. Th...
