Triticum aestivum (bread wheat) is an important global cereal. Bread wheat is hexaploid, and its estimated genome is ~17 Gb. The ancestral progenitors are thought to be Triticum urartu (the A-genome donor) and a grass related to Aegilops speltoides (the B-genome donor). Their hybridization produced tetraploid wheat (AABB, T. dicoccoides), which further hybridized with Aegilops tauschii (the D-genome donor) to produce modern bread wheat. T. aestivum genome sequences are avaliable from Ensembl. The draft genome of T. urartu was published on Nature in 2013 (Ling et al. Nature ,2013).
