Zusammenfassung:Modern wheat shows phenomenal evolutional success and adaptability to a range of environments owing to polyploidization; however, during its hybridization process a major genetic gain has been overlooked. Recently, Gaurav et al. emphasized harnessing genetic diversity from wheat wild progenitor Aegilops tauschii for the improvement of hexaploid wheat through introgression or transgenesis.
