Population genomics and haplotype analysis in spelt and bread wheat identifies a gene regulating glume color

Krattinger, Abrouk et al. use genome wide association study and haplotype analyses to investigate the genetics of glume colour in ten reference grade wheat genomes. Haplotype comparison identifies a MYB transcription factor as a candidate gene for red glume colour.
