Abstract
In a period of considerable climate and environmental changes, and constant population growth, new effective approaches to wheat breeding are required, in particular, thorough the study of genetic and genomic diversity, as well as the origin and migration routes of species genetically close to bread wheat, which could be donors of genes that control economically important traits. These species include cultivated emmer Triticum dicoccum (Schrank) Schübl. with A and B subgenomes (2n = 28), similar to the corresponding subgenomes of hexaploid bread wheat. The review examines the issues of genetic and genomic diversity of cultivated emmer, its domestication, and distribution routes. The characteristics of some T. dicoccum genes introduced into bread and durum wheat, or promising for further use in breeding programs, are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Russian Journal of Genetics is a journal intended to make significant contribution to the development of genetics. The journal publishes reviews and experimental papers in the areas of theoretical and applied genetics. It presents fundamental research on genetic processes at molecular, cell, organism, and population levels, including problems of the conservation and rational management of genetic resources and the functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and medical genetics.
