Genomic signals of ecogeographic adaptation in a wild relative are associated with improved wheat performance under drought stress

Genomic signals of ecogeographic adaptation in a wild relative are associated with improved wheat performance under drought stress

Abstract Background Prioritizing wild relative diversity for improving crop adaptation to emerging drought-prone environments is challenging. Here, we combine the genome-wide environmental scans (GWES) in wheat diploid ancestor Aegilops tauschii (Ae. tauschii) with allele testing in the genetic back...
