February 2023: Stripe Rust QTL curated from the Vavilov wheat diversity panel

Stripe rust QTL from Jambuthenne et al. (2022) Mining the Vavilov wheat diversity panel for new sources of adult plant resistance to stripe rust. TAG 135:1355 DOI 10.1007/s00122-022-04037-8.

Forty-seven independent QTL were mapped on the IWGSC v1 assembly with DArT markers, 14 of which overlapped with previously described genes. These will be added to the Strip Rust track for the IWGSC v1 browser in progress.

February 2023: Wheat GWAS QTL Curation

GWAS QTL results in the publications below will soon be aligned on the 2018 IWGSC Chinese Spring v1 wheat genome browser. In preparation for that track these QTL were curated as QTL records in the GrainGenes database with links to significant markers, associated traits, Gene Ontology links, etc. As always in GrainGenes, all significant data is linked from the reference record. See below for the upcoming browser track in progress and please do not hesitate to recommend additions to this track,

September 2022: 106K SNP markers in GrainGenes added to the IWGSC RefSeq v1.0 (2018) browser

A track with ~106,000 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) markers with records in the GrainGenes database has been added to the wealth of available tracks on the 'Wheat Chinese Spring IWGSC RefSeq v1.0 genome assembly (2018). These include the IWA and IWB SNP collections aligned with the original SNPs from participating labs. Look for this track in the "GrainGenes Curated Tracks" menu group.
