“…However, the stewardship of gene-edited lines in combination with an appropriate deployment strategy is essential to meet environmental health and safety standards. There remains a lack of clarity as to the GMO or non-GMO status of such germplasm in many countries [ 63 ]. It is anticipated that legislation and a better-educated public will soon allow the benefits of this research to reach the farming community [ 64 ].…”

Highlights 5G breeding approach brings precision and enhances efficiency in breeding programs. Genome, germplasm, gene function, genomic breeding and genome editing are the 5Gs. NGS platforms, speed breeding and express edit facility are the key drivers for 5G breeding. Haplotype-based breeding, genomic selection and gene editing are the key genomic breeding approaches of the future. Multi-disciplinary team of scientists need to be trained to deploy 5G breeding in developing countries.

“…This was based on GMO legislation issued in 2001 (Official Journal of the European Communities, 2001) that did not consider CRSIPR/Cas9 approaches. Consequently, scientists and breeders in Europe are urgently calling for the GMO ruling to be updated to a product‐based evaluation rather than a process‐based one (Collinge, 2018; Schulman et al , 2019). Meanwhile, several countries outside Europe have excluded genome‐edited crops from GMO regulations, such as the USA, Argentina, and Japan (Schulman et al , 2019).…”

Although there are differences in regulatory approach, these new breeding technologies are believed to represent a sustainable solution to global agricultural challenges, crucial for reducing pesticides and securing food supply.…”

Mechanisms of powdery mildew resistance of wheat – a review of molecular breeding

et al. 2020

Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici) results in serious economic loss in wheat production. Exploration of plant resistance to wheat powdery mildew over several decades has led to the discovery of a wealth of resistance genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs). We have provided a comprehensive summary of over 200 powdery mildew genes (permanently and temporarily designated genes) and QTLs reported in common bread wheat. This highlights the diverse and rich resistance sources that exist across all 21 chromosomes. To manage different data for breeders, here we also present a bridged mapping result from previously reported powdery mildew resistance genes and QTLs with the application of a published integrated wheat map. This will provide important insights to empower further breeding of powdery mildew resistant wheat via marker‐assisted selection (MAS).
