• Past and Future Use of Wild Relatives in Crop Breeding (2017, background): “In fact, prebreeding has also been employed to use genetic diversity that was not previously accessible either due to genetic incompatibilities or nonoverlapping geographic ranges (Cooper et al., 2001; Dwivedi et al., 2008; Ogbonnaya et al., 2013).”
• Smart Engineering of Genetic Resources for Enhanced Salinity Tolerance in Crop Plants (2016, background): “Ogbonnaya et al. (2013) introgressed salinity tolerance into “Yitpi” bread wheat cultivar from Australia, using synthetic hexaploid wheat (SHY) with some of the backcross lines exhibiting significantly greater NaC exclusion than either the SHY or the recurrent “Yitpi” cultivar.”
• Sustaining the Future of Plant Breeding: The Critical Role of the USDA-ARS National Plant Germplasm System (2018, background): “Over 1500 synthetic hexaploids have been developed, notably by the CIMMYT in Mexico (Ogbonnaya et al., 2013).”
