A roadmap for gene functional characterisation in crops with large genomes: Lessons from polyploid wheat

Understanding the function of genes within staple crops will accelerate crop improvement by allowing targeted breeding approaches. Despite their importance, a lack of genomic information and resources has hindered the functional characterisation of genes in major crops. The recent release of high-qu...
