Barley cv. Morex, version MorexV2 by TRITEX genome browser is available at GrainGenes at https://wheat.pw.usda.gov/jb/?data=%2Fggds%2Fbar-morex2.

The pseudomolecules and track information are taken from Monat et al. 2019.

We also created probe and locus pages with cross-links to and from the genome browser. For example:

2019 Uniform Regional Scab Nursery for Spring Wheat Parents report is available at https://wheat.pw.usda.gov/GG3/germplasm in the table "Uniform Regional Hard Red Spring Wheat Nursery."

The following genes have been added to GrainGenes. All except brc5 were curated from the Catalog of Wheat Symbols for Wheat (WGC).

GrainGenes maintains an Ongoing List of updated genes from the WGC.

Visit the new navigation page for .pdfs of the full releases and supplements of the WGC.

We created links to expVIP (http://www.wheat-expression.com) and KnetMiner (https://knetminer.rothamsted.ac.uk/KnetMiner/) from the IWGSC Chinese Spring genome browser v1 for the v1.0 (expVIP) and v1.1 (expVIP and KnetMiner) annotations.

Data including 15 yield-related QTL, 4 maps, 26 KASP probes with primer information, and germplasm were added to GrainGenes for Yang et al. (2019) TAG 133: 857. QTL mapping for grain yield-related traits in bread wheat via SNP-based selective genotyping. All data are available via the mapdata page: Wheat-2019-KASP_YldQTL.

Functional annotations from the High Confidence genes from the IWGSC Chinese Spring RefSeq 1.0 have been loaded onto GrainGenes. Probe records for the collection provide external links to Pfam, InterPro, and AmiGo.

Please see TraesCS1A01G002500 for an example.

We added a new SNP track generated from 3,000-year-old Egyptian wild emmer wheat chaff (Scott et al., Nature Plants, 2019). To learn more about this dataset, you can reach the original article through PubMed.

We have added several Mississippi Valley Barley Nursery Reports covering years between 1999-2014 for agronomic traits and malting quality.

These reports can be reached on our Germplasm page following this link: https://wheat.pw.usda.gov/GG3/germplasm#barley.

The GrainGenes curation team is working toward a complete representation of the data in the Wheat Gene Catalogue (WGC) into the interactive SQL database at GrainGenes. Gene classes, genes, loci, maps, references and germplasm records are being updated and/or created as needed. Links to the Komugi database are added to gene class, gene, and allele records. All links below are to records in the GrainGenes SQL database unless otherwise noted.
