Wheat breeding to better feed a growing world: historic insights and future potential elaborated using a diverse cultivars collection and extended phenotyping. Open
Wheat is one of the most important staple crops playing a pivotal role to sustainably feed the growing world population. Wheat breeding mainly focused on improving agronomy and techno-functionality for bread or pasta production, but nutrie…

Genomics-informed prebreeding unlocks the diversity in genebanks for wheat improvement Open
The great efforts spent in the maintenance of past diversity in genebanks are rationalized by the potential role of plant genetic resources (PGR) in future crop improvement-a concept whose practical implementation has fallen short of expec…

A catalogue of resistance gene homologs and a chromosome‐scale reference sequence support resistance gene mapping in winter wheat Open
Summary A resistance gene atlas is an integral component of the breeder’s arsenal in the fight against evolving pathogens. Thanks to high‐throughput sequencing, catalogues of resistance genes can be assembled even in crop species with larg…

Reciprocal Recurrent Genomic Selection Is Impacted by Genotype-by-Environment Interactions Open
Reciprocal recurrent genomic selection is a breeding strategy aimed at improving the hybrid performance of two base populations. It promises to significantly advance hybrid breeding in wheat. Against this backdrop, the main objective of th…

Unlocking big data doubled the accuracy in predicting the grain yield in hybrid wheat Open
Capitalizing on big data for wheat doubled the accuracy in predicting grain yield compared with current medium-sized datasets.
View article: Negative dominance and dominance-by-dominance epistatic effects reduce grain-yield heterosis in wide crosses in wheat
Negative dominance and dominance-by-dominance epistatic effects reduce grain-yield heterosis in wide crosses in wheat Open
Breeding exploits the phenomenon of heterosis for an improved productivity, but negative effects reduce heterosis in wide crosses.
View article: Higher grain yield and higher grain protein deviation underline the potential of hybrid wheat for a sustainable agriculture
Higher grain yield and higher grain protein deviation underline the potential of hybrid wheat for a sustainable agriculture Open
Grain yield and protein content are traits of major importance in wheat breeding, but their combination is challenging due to a tight negative correlation. Protein yield and grain protein deviation have been proposed as selection criteria …
View article: Genome–metabolite associations revealed low heritability, high genetic complexity, and causal relations for leaf metabolites in winter wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i>)
Genome–metabolite associations revealed low heritability, high genetic complexity, and causal relations for leaf metabolites in winter wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i>) Open
We investigated associations between the metabolic phenotype, consisting of quantitative data of 76 metabolites from 135 contrasting winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) lines, and 17 372 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. Metabolit…
