We show that in tetraploid wheat, ZIP4 is required for over 95% of crossovers, a higher percentage than reported in other species such as rice and Arabidopsis.
Position and effects of major QTLs relative to a new fully annotated reference genome in five recombinant inbred line populations representing oat varieties are shown, incl two major chromosome rearrangements that may impact breeding targets.

Bisher verhindert Angst und Skepsis die Nutzung grüner Gentechnik zur Züchtung von verbesserten, an das Klima angepasste Sorten. Der Artikel liefert eine gute Zusammenfassung der Hintergründe.
Die Genome der vier großen Getreidesorten sind entschlüsselt. Damit ließen sich Hunger und Tod verhindern – wäre da nicht die Skepsis gegenüber grüner

While I think the situation can and should be still much improved in Germany, I find what I hear from other parts of the world, where women sometimes have no voice at all, much more frustrating.

. Europe is lagging far behind the rest of the world with their legislation rules for genome edited crops.
Only 3 (wheat, corn, rice) of 369,000 plant species account for half of global caloric intake. (Oats are only 0.7% of production)

says one roadblock is a lack of reference genome. But the oat genome is huge, hexaploidy, and complex...
