Triticum timopheevii Assembly and Gene Annotation

About Triticum timopheevii

Triticum timopheevii, Timopheev's wheat or Zanduri wheat, is a tetraploid wheat that has both cultivated and wild forms. It is believed to have evolved in isolation from the more common Triticum turgidum; hybrids between T. timopheevii and T. turgidum are reportedly sterile with "a considerable amount of chromosomal irregularities in meiosis."

Assembly

The assembly presented here has been imported from INSDC and is linked to the assembly accession GCA_963921465.1.
