Therefore, the synthetic lines are typically crossed to an adapted wheat cultivar, then backcrossed once or twice to the adapted cultivar, followed by selection. The featured traits are plant height, harvest index, lodging, and shattering. Bookshelf Figure 2.

From a wild Asian grass to a refined crop that is the staple diet of half the world's population, the domestication of Oryza sativa spans centuries, but the grain's ancestry is hotly contested. T. aestivum originated from a cross between domesticated emmer wheat T. dicoccum and the goat grass Aegilops tauschii, most probably in the south and west of the Caspian Sea about 9,000years ago.

Utilizing wild grass biodiversity in wheat improvement: 15 years of wide cross research at CIMMYT. The earliest present evidence for the utilization of wheat comes from the Ohalo II site in Israel, where the wild, brittle tetraploid wheat Triticum dicoccoides, dated as 19,000 years old, was found, suggesting the initial steps towards sedentism and cereal agriculture (Kislev et al. Genes from Aegilops species and other wild relatives have been extremely important for improving a number of traits in wheat, especially disease resistance. Wheat seeds, fragments, and pollen were not found at Bouldnor Cliff, but the DNA sequences from the sediment match Near Eastern wheat, genetically different from LBK forms. Video 5.
