Reviews

From the reviews: Describe the latest advances in genetics and genomics of the economically important Triticeae tribe . This is a very timely text that will be of great interest and value to both graduate students and postgraduates . I would also strongly recommend this text to researchers entering the field attracted by the new opportunities that are emerging in these important species. I believe this book will serve as a go-to reference for the coming years to those working on Triticeae genetics and genomics. (Cristobal Uauy, Annals of Botany, Vol. 108 (5), October, 2011)

Author Information

"Catherine Feuillet is research director and leader of the group ""Structure, function and evolution of the wheat genomes"" at the INRA, Clermont-Ferrand (France). She was educated as a geneticist and molecular biologist and worked for 10 years in Switzerland on the genomics of disease resistance in wheat and barley before moving to France. She is one of the co-chairs of the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (IWGSC), the International Triticeae Mapping Initiative (ITMI), and the European Triticeae Genomics Initiative (ETGI). Gary J. Muehlbauer is an Associate Professor and Endowed Chair in Molecular Genetics of Crop Improvement in the Department of Agronomy and Plant Genetics at the University of Minnesota. He studied maize genetics during his Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota and his postdoctoral work at the University of California at Berkeley. He has been on the faculty at the University of Minnesota for eleven years working on barley and wheat genomics. He is the vice chair of the International Barley Sequencing Consortium."
