Triticeae Genomics and Genetics, 2024, Vol.15, No.3, 121-124 http://cropscipublisher.com/index.php/tgg 124 2 Research Results Analysis This study effectively identified genes and genomic regions associated with drought resistance and yield improvement in wheat by combining GWAS and selective sweep analysis. It also highlighted the potential value of utilizing the genetic diversity in local varieties for modern breeding practices. 3 Research Evaluation The study leveraged the genetic resources of Turkish winter wheat, utilizing advanced molecular marker technologies and statistical methods to effectively identify genes and genomic regions that contribute to drought resistance and yield enhancement. These findings provide valuable genetic resources for drought-resistant breeding in wheat. 4 Conclusion The GWAS and selective sweep analysis of Turkish winter wheat germplasm successfully identified several key genes and genomic regions associated with improved drought resistance and yield, providing important molecular markers for future wheat breeding against adverse conditions. 5 Access the Full Text Sehgal, D., Rathan, N.D., Özdemir, F. et al.
