Pretini N, Alonso M, Vanzetti L, Pontaroli A, Gonzalez F
J Exp Bot . 2021 Mar; 72(11):3987-4004. PMID: 33681978
Fruiting efficiency (FE, grains per g of spike dry weight at anthesis) was proposed as a promising spike trait to improve wheat yield potential, based on its functional relationship with...

Parvathaneni R, Jakkula V, Padi F, Faure S, Nagarajappa N, Pontaroli A, et al.
G3 (Bethesda) . 2013 Mar; 3(3):563-72. PMID: 23450459
Pearl millet is one of the most important subsistence crops grown in India and sub-Saharan Africa. In many cereal crops, reduced height is a key trait for enhancing yield, and...

Bennetzen J, Schmutz J, Wang H, Percifield R, Hawkins J, Pontaroli A, et al.
Nat Biotechnol . 2012 May; 30(6):555-61. PMID: 22580951
We generated a high-quality reference genome sequence for foxtail millet (Setaria italica). The ∼400-Mb assembly covers ∼80% of the genome and >95% of the gene space. The assembly was anchored...

Al-Dous E, George B, Al-Mahmoud M, Al-Jaber M, Wang H, Salameh Y, et al.
Nat Biotechnol . 2011 May; 29(6):521-7. PMID: 21623354
Date palm is one of the most economically important woody crops cultivated in the Middle East and North Africa and is a good candidate for improving agricultural yields in arid...

Davis T, Shields M, Zhang Q, Tombolato-Terzic D, Bennetzen J, Pontaroli A, et al.
BMC Plant Biol . 2010 May; 10:81. PMID: 20441596
Background: Strawberry (Fragaria spp.) is the familiar name of a group of economically important crop plants and wild relatives that also represent an emerging system for the study of gene...

Bruggmann R, Bharti A, Gundlach H, Lai J, Young S, Pontaroli A, et al.
Genome Res . 2006 Aug; 16(10):1241-51. PMID: 16902087
Maize (Zea mays or corn), both a major food source and an important cytogenetic model, evolved from a tetraploid that arose about 4.8 million years ago (Mya). As a result,...

Chan A, Pertea G, Cheung F, Lee D, Zheng L, Whitelaw C, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2005 Dec; 34(Database issue):D771-6. PMID: 16381977
Maize is a staple crop of the grass family and also an excellent model for plant genetics. Owing to the large size and repetitiveness of its genome, we previously investigated...

Devos K, Ma J, Pontaroli A, Pratt L, Bennetzen J
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2005 Dec; 102(52):19243-8. PMID: 16357197
The current view of wheat genome composition is that genes are compartmentalized into gene-rich and gene-poor regions. This model can be tested by analyzing randomly selected bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)...
