Wheat Evolution and Domestication
Author: Moshe FeldmanPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031301757
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 689
Book Description
This open access book covers a century of research on wheat genetics and evolution, starting with the discovery in 1918 of the accurate number of chromosomes in wheat. We re-evaluate classical studies that are pillars of the current knowledge considering recent genomic data in the wheat group comprising 31 species from the genera Amblyopyrum, Aegilops, Triticum, and other more distant relatives. For these species, we describe morphology, ecogeographical distribution, phylogeny as well as cytogenetic and genomic features. For crops, we also address evolution under human selection, namely pre-domestication cultivation and domestication. We re-examine the genetic and archeological evidence of where, when, and how domestication occurred. We discuss unique aspects of genome evolution and maintenance under polyploidization, in natural and synthetic allopolyploids of the wheat group. Finally, we propose some thoughts on the future prospects of wheat improvement. As such, it can be of great interest to wheat researchers and breeders as well as to plant scientists and students interested in plant genetics, evolution, domestication, and polyploidy.

Book Description
Cereal cyst nematode (CCN) is acknowledged globally as a biotic constraint for wheat production, particularly under rain-fed conditions and drought stress. The first meeting of the International Cereal Cyst Nematode Initiative, held 21-23 October 2009 in Turkey, involved over 22 countries and 60 scientists from wheat-growing regions in Asia, Australia, Europe, North Africa and North America. It featured over 50 scientific presentations to provide valuable insight into the impact of CCN.
