Resources & Code

Resources

In collaboration with international partners we have developed a suite of tools to study gene function in wheat including:


A whole range of different genomic resources are now available for wheat. Figure from Borrill, Harrington and Uauy, 2019.

For information on how to use these resources and others related to wheat please visit our training website and read our roadmap for working with wheat.
