Marker Assisted Selection in Wheat (MASWheat) is a highly-curated site for PCR protocols in wheat research.

All pathology genes in GrainGenes with protocols at MASWheat are now up to date with links to the site. These are listed below. Please note that some pathology genes have several names reflecting their role in disease resistance. These are all listed, with links pointing to the first gene in the group.

4 new Aegilops tauschii genome browsers and BLAST service were created at GrainGenes based on Zhou et al., Nature Plants, 2021.

Reduced Height Gene Class
The following gene class has been updated at GrainGenes, based on the information in the Wheat Gene Catalogue (WGC). This includes all genes, along with any associated alleles, references, loci and germplasm sources.

Oat-2019-TX07CSxHidalgo maps 6721 SNPs and 31 QTL for seedling crown rust resistance (4), height (10), and heading date (17) from Sunstrom et al. (2019) A genetic linkage map in southern-by-spring oat identifies multiple quantitative trait loci for adaptation and rust resistance. Plant Breed. 138:82.

GWAS results for stripe rust resistance published since 2015 from five studies on diverse wheat collections were placed on the integrated map from Maccaferri et al. (2015). These are now available on the mapdata set Wheat, Yr Update, 2021,

Secale cereale Lo7 (rye) v1 paper has been published. You can reach the paper https://www.nature.com/articles/s41588-021-00807-0

At GrainGenes, we created a genome browser and a BLAST interface are available at GrainGenes. You can reach them using the links below.

GrainGenes has published a new tutorial on the GrainGenes Classic channel on YouTube entitled
"Using CMap to Improve Marker Density around a Gene of Interest".
This lesson will guide you though the CMap tool to add co-localizing markers from a consensus map to a mapped gene from an older paper.

The following gene class has been updated at GrainGenes, based on the information in the Wheat Gene Catalogue (WGC). This includes all genes, along with any associated alleles, references, loci and germplasm sources.

Two primer design programs, RJPrimers and BatchPrimer3, which were hosted by GrainGenes, are now available through the GrainGenes' "GrainGenes Tools" menu.
