Exciting news in wheat science!
A new study in @NatureComms presents the first wheat pan-transcriptome: uncovering hidden diversity across modern wheat lines 🌾
Congrats to @EarlhamInst & @HelmholtzMunich for this major advance!

Peak season in the field! 🌾 Exciting activities are underway in the CResWheat project with field trials and data collection to strengthen resistance against the #goutfly. Join us on the journey! 🪰

[Therese Bengtsson @therese_slu]

This Monday we harvested wheat plots from our #goutfly trial at Sejet Plant Breeding, Denmark with the aim to study gout fly & #parasiticwasp prevalence across sites & seasons. Same trial was harvested today in Sweden. Thanks to @LindaKaergaardN & Sejet team for hosting us!

Wheat’s Defenses Breached: New Strain of Yellow Rust Overcomes Key Resistance Gene Across Europe @niabgroup @gatesfoundation https://t.co/S3y5MKHxg4

Great two days with #CResWheat partners at NMBU 🇳🇴! Field visits to drought, waterlogging & PHS trials—plus a surprise sighting of gout fly (Chlorops pumilionis) eggs 🪰. Thanks to NMBU & Graminor for hosting! #wheatresearch #plantpathology #climateresilience #cereals

🚨 Yellow rust virulence to Yr15 has been confirmed in multiple regions across continental Europe — raising global concern.

This key resistance gene is widely used in commercial wheat, and its effectiveness is now in jeopardy.

Beautiful morning in the #CResWheat field searching for gout fly pupae. Some #stemrust was also spotted. #diseasenursery #nordic #trial

[CResWheat @CResWheat]

Exciting week as all 11 project partners gathered to review results and plan future activities. We kicked off with an enlightening lab tour at @Lantmannen, exploring their climate chambers, followed by the #CResWheat field trial 🌾#Nordic #Baltic #Collaboration #SpringWheat

Cultivar matters - lajikkeella on väliä leivonnassakin! Toinen kohoaa paremmin kuin toinen. Kasvinjalostuksen taikaa ja vahvaa osaamista 🌾 @CResWheat hankekokous #Lantmannen Svalövissä. Mukana myös @Boreal_fi @LukeFinland

[CResWheat @CResWheat]

Today it was time to count #goutfly eggs in a subset of genotypes of the #CResWheat panel. Easy to spot but a pain to count. 😅
