Why
Vision
• Lay a foundation to accelerate wheat improvement
• Increase profitability throughout the industry
• High quality annotated genome sequence,
comparable to rice genome sequence
• Physical map-based, integrated and ordered sequence
Wheat Improvement is Complex
 Yield potential and yield stability
 Adaptation to climate change
 Durable resistance to biotic stress
 Quality of grain and co-products
Training, capacity building
-> expertise and critical mass
Complexity Requires an Integrated Toolbox

IWGSC Chromosome Summary
Survey Sequencing - Summary
• Almost full wheat gene complement identified and
allocated to chromosome arms
• On average, 53% of genes virtually ordered along
chromosomes
• High level of inter- and intrachromosomal
duplication
• Over 3.5 M markers mapped to contigs (1.3M wheat
markers + 2.3M SNPs) - SSR, EST, DArT, SNP (90k)
markers...
• 13.2 million SNPs from POPSeq aligned to contigs
IWGSC CSS Resources are Facilitating
• New phylogenetic analyses of wheat genome
evolution
• Definition of core and pan gene sets for
Triticeae by comparing di-tetra- and hexaploid
genomes
• Homoeologue-specific gene expression analyses
• Wheat haplotype map – E. Akhunov
• TILLING projects in T. durum and bread wheat –
UC, Davis, JIC, Rres
• Establishment of WheatNet – UC, Davis
