This study identifies genetic loci associated with grain iron and zinc concentrations in wheat under different moisture conditions using genome-wide association analysis.

The paper evaluates Agrobacterium-mediated transformation efficiency in four wheat varieties, finding transgenesis frequencies of 60-70% and improved GUS expression in transgenic plants.

This paper analyzes allelic diversity of the HKT1;5 gene in wheat and evaluates its association with salinity stress tolerance across different species and lines.

The paper describes efforts to edit the Lr67 gene in wheat elite lines to confer durable resistance against leaf rust by identifying SNPs and improving genetic transformation.
