| Along with maize and rice, allohexaploid bread wheat and diploid barley are the most cultivated crops in the world (FAOSTAT database, http://www.fao.org/faostat, accessed on 22 June 2019). Their economic importance and close relationship supports a parallel study of both cereals. Nowadays, analyses based on high-throughput sequencing have become a key approach in genome-wide biology for crop improvement. Advances in genomics have resulted in the development of new technologies and strategies that give support to experimental research. In this context, the release of the genomic sequences of wheat and barley has permitted the application of genome-scale approaches, such as those related to metabolomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, and phenomics analyses. Additionally, new tools for gene identification, such are Genome-Editing and Genome-Wide Association Studies, are being developed. Modern research based in this new technological scenario is focused on understanding regulatory systems in order to improve crop productivity. The final goal should be the functional genomic analysis of genes and regulatory networks that control important agronomic traits and biological processes, such as yield, grain quality, disease and pest resistance, nutrient-use efficiency, and abiotic stress resistance. This Special Issue aimed to report novel molecular research and reviews related to wheat and barley biology using these new technologies. The Special Issue presents a total of 18 articles | |
