• Relevance of sexual polyploidization for crop improvement – A review (2004, background): “The invaluable role of introgression for crop improvement has been highlighted in the case of wheat, the cytogenetics of which has been highly developed (review, Jiang et al., 1994).”
• Synthetic Hexaploids: Harnessing Species of the Primary Gene Pool for Wheat Improvement (2013, background): “Extensive reviews of secondary and tertiary gene pools and the transfer of genes from them into common wheat can be found in Jiang et al. (1994), Mujeeb-Kazi and Hettel (1995), Friebe et al. (1996), and Gill et al. (2006, 2008).”
• A Cryptic Wheat-Aegilops triuncialis Translocation with Leaf Rust Resistance Gene Lr58 (2007, background): “Alien genes from nonprogenitor species have been transferred to wheat through induced homeologous chromosome pairing between wheat and alien chromosomes (see the reviews by Friebe et al., 1996; Jiang et al., 1994 ) by making the Ph1 gene ineff ective.”
• Utilisation of Aegilops (goatgrass) species to widen the genetic diversity of cultivated wheat (2008, background): “In such cases chromosome-specific molecular markers may facilitate the characterization of the Aegilops segment (Jiang et al. 1994).”
• Genetic enrichment of cereal crops via alien gene transfer: New challenges (2001, background): “Wild relatives of cereal crops have genes for superior traits, some of which have been incorporated into these crops via interspecific and intergeneric hybridization (Brar and Khush, 1986; Jauhar, 1993; Jiang et al., 1994; Friebe et al., 1996; Jauhar and Chibbar, 1999).”
• How wide can a wide cross be? (2004, neutral): “…at one time were subsequently successful (Table 2 ; Sharma & Gill, 1983b ; Dewey, 1984; Comeau et al ., 1985;' Mujeeb-Kazi & Kimber, 1985; Sharma & Baenziger, 1986 ; Chen et al., 1990 ; Plourde et al ., 1990 ; Lu,& Bothmer, 1991 ; Ahmad & Comeau, 1991 a; Wang et al ., 1993 ; Jiang et al., 1994) .”
• Wheat genetic resources enhancement by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) (2008, background): “The germplasm sources can be classified into three groups (primary, secondary, and tertiary genepools) according to ease of exchanging genetic material with wheat by meiotic recombinations (Jiang et al. 1994).”
• Agropyron and Psathyrostachys (2011, background): “…Triticeae (i.e., P, St, Ns, E, ESt, StH, StY, StHY, StWY, and NsXm, etc. as designated by Wang et al. 1995) have been successfully crossed with wheat (Jiang et al. 1994b), all species in the genera Agropyron, Pseudoroegneria, Psathyrostachys, Thinopyrum, Elymus, and Leymus are theoreti- cally…”
• Breeding Perennial Grain Crops (2002, background): “Wheat might be used as a donor parent for improving Th. intermedium or some hexaploid species of Elymus with which it can be crossed (Jiang et al., 1993, 1994).”
• Growth and senescence characteristics associated with tolerance of wheat-alien amphiploids to high temperature under controlled conditions (2002, background): “However, yield is less useful for contrasting amphiploids derived from wide hybridization, which suffer partial sterility from unbalanced chromosomal segregation during meiosis (Siddiqui, 1976; Jiang et al., 1994; Rajaram et al., 1997).”
• Evaluation and utilization of Aegilops and wild Triticum species for enhancing iron and zinc content in wheat (2009, background): “Therefore, screening of non-progenitor species comprising the secondary and tertiary gene pools (Jiang et al. 1994) for additional variability for micronutrients is very critical.”
• Wheat breeding assisted by markers: CIMMYT’s experience (2007, background): “Moreover, numerous genes of importance have been introduced to wheat from its wild progenitors through wide hybridization and chromosome manipulation resulting in interchromosomal translocations involving wheat chromosomes and the homologous chromosomes of related species (Jiang et al. 1994; McIntos”

• Wheat‐Alien Species Derivatives: A Novel Source of Resistance to Fusarium Head Blight in Wheat (2005, background): “Cumulative economic losses due to FHB in ground (Gale and Miller, 1987; Jiang et al., 1994b; Friebe the United States have been estimated at $2.7 billion from et al., 1996).”
