Pangenome unlocks potential of barley’s closest wild relative

Wild plants can contribute valuable genes to their domesticated relatives. Fertility barriers and a lack of genomic resources have hindered the effective use of crop-wild introgressions. An international research team led by the IPK Leibniz Institute constructed a pangenome of barley’s closest wild relative, Hordeum bulbosum. The study is published today in the journal Nature.
