Until our GST localization studies in Triticum tauschii (50), it was unclear as to why a safener could induce a detoxification system that effectively... 

The most common wheat species used in food production is ordinary wheat, also called bread wheat (Triticum aestivum). It is an allohexaploid (AABBDD), in which the genomes were obtained by spontaneous hybridization of T. turgidum (AABB) and Aegilops tauschii (DD) about 10,000 years ago (Vasil, 2007). Other grown wheat species are tetraploidal durum wheat T. durum, used in pasta production and small amounts of hexaploidal spelt T. spelta and tetraploidal T. polonicum (Curtis et al. 2002).
