Frontiers | CRISPR-mediated genome editing of wheat for enhancing disease resistance REVIEW article

[Daily Watch] CRISPR technology accelerates the development of resistant wheat varieties, crucial for sustainable farming. 🌿🌾 #GenomeEditing #WheatBreeding #Sustainability

Fig. 1. Map of California (United States) with study locations and predominant wheat-growing regions (dark grey shaded area) indicated. Letters indicate unique locations, with the size of each point corresponding to number of trials conducted at each location. Terminal drought trials are indicated with yellow points; N deficiency trials are indicated in teal. See Table A.1 for more information about the locations and crop environments.

🌱 Taylor S. Nelsen, Joshua Hegarty and Mark Lundy discussed how NDVI-based ideotypes help identify yield-stable wheat genotypes under stress. This could be a cost-effective tool for precision breeding in variable environments.

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Using Applied Quantitative Genetics to Uncover the Potential of Diversity-Enriched Wheat. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joi... For over a decade NIAB has been creating ‘diversity-enriched’ wheat with the aim of targeting the diversity bottleneck in modern cultivars. One route to diversity is Synthetic Hexaploid Wheat (SHW), f...

The next IGWSC webinar will take place on 4th of Dec with Tally Wright from @niab-uk.bsky.social to explore diversity-enriched wheat populations for genomic prediction to help breeders improve wheat cultivars.
