Abstract
Ensuring durum wheat resilience to abiotic stress under climate change requires a holistic approach to effectively dissect and leverage the genetic components of drought resilience, a complex trait. Among those components, Root growth angle (RGA) is crucial. This study characterized the QTLome of RGA in the Global Durum Genomic Resource (GDGR, https://wheat.pw.usda.gov/GG3/global_durum_genomic_resources) germplasm, a collaborative, comprehensive tetraploid wheat genetic resources. The GDGR includes the Tetraploid Germplasm Collection (TGC, Maccaferri et al., 2019, Nature Genetics) and the Global Durum Panel (GDP, Mazzucotelli et al., 2020, Frontiers), for a total of ca. 500 durum cultivars, ca. 1,000 T. turgidum landraces- and ca. 500 domesticated and wild emmer, all genotyped with the Illumina iSelect 90K wheat SNP array.
