WheatPanRef provides a unified linear pan-reference genome for wheat, improving read alignment and enabling integration of genomic resources across diverse accessions.

This study identifies TaNF-YC10 as a key transcription factor regulating starch biosynthesis in wheat endosperm, showing its role in enhancing starch accumulation and grain weight.

This study identifies TaMYB7-A1 haplotypes that regulate PHS resistance and wheat geographic adaptation through ABA signaling and gene expression mechanisms.

This study identifies the TaNF-Y-PRC2 complex as a regulator of starch and protein synthesis in wheat endosperm, revealing its role in epigenetic control through histone modification and gene repression.

The paper provides a high-resolution genomic assembly of the 1RS.1BL translocation in wheat, identifies key genes involved in grain yield and fertility, and defines targets for wheat improvement.
