Abstract excerpt
Disease resistance is crucial for minimizing agricultural inputs and safeguarding food supply to solve world hunger. The genetic diversity of wild relatives provides a valuable resource for enhancing the disease resistance and yield of crops such as common wheat (Triticum aestivum). Psathyrostachys huashanica (2n = 2x = 14, NsNs) is a valuable wild germplasm for wheat improvement because of its resistance to...
