This book celebrates the dawn of the rye genomics era with concise,
comprehensive, and accessible reviews on the current state of rye
genomic research, written by experts in the field for students,
researchers and growers. To most, rye is the key ingredient in a
flavoursome bread or their favourite American whisky. To a farmer,
rye is the remarkable grain that tolerates the harshest winters and
the most unforgiving soils, befitting its legacy as the life-giving
seed that fed the ancient civilisations of northern Eurasia. Since
the mid-1900s, scientists have employed genetic approaches to
better understand and utilize rye, but only since the technological
advances of the mid-2010s has the possibility of addressing
questions using rye genome assemblies become a reality. Alongside
the secret of its unique survival abilities, rye genomics has
accelerated research on a host of intriguing topics such as the
complex history of rye's domestication by humans, the nature of
genes that switch fertility on and off, the function and origin of
accessory chromosomes, and the evolution of selfish DNA.
