It is known that wheat is a difficult crop to introduce foreign genes into, having a large genome (16 Gb) containing three highly related subgenomes (AABBDD). Owing to the low transformation efficiency of wheat, it is difficult to apply new technologies such as genome editing and basic research based on molecular biology, such as the discovery of use… Show more
