The AEGILWHEAT project seeks to enhance the genetic diversity of bread wheat by utilizing wild relatives to introduce beneficial traits such as disease resistance and stress tolerance. It focuses on developing molecular tools for efficient selection of new wheat varieties.
The widening of gene pool of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) by employing its wild relatives as donors of new alleles and genes will ensure the ability of wheat to sustain yield quality and quantity under adverse environmental conditions.
Species from genus Aegilops represent a rich source of agronomically important traits, such as leaf rust resistance, grain nutritional quality and abiotic stress tolerance.
To date, the utilization of wild genetic diversity has been hampered by low throughput o…
