Comprised of the work of internationally recognized experts, Genetics and Genomics of Triticeae provides an in depth summary of the advances of the past decades, synthesizes the current state of knowledge of the structure, function, and evolution of the Triticeae genomes, and describes progress in the application of this knowledge to the improvement of wheat, barley, and rye. This book explores both the fundamentals of genetic and genomic research of the Triticeae and the applications of state of the art technology that have led to improvements in agronomically important traits such as biotic and abiotic stress resistance, plant development, and quality. Genetics and Genomics of Triticeae opens perspectives into the deployment of new genetic approaches to identify traits and create a better understanding of the organization of the Triticeae genome, and the ongoing development of new sequencing technologies that will support future genome sequencing of these essential crops.
