Abstract Rye is a valuable food and forage crop, an important genetic resource for wheat triticale improvement indispensable material efficient comparative genomic studies in grasses. Here, we sequenced the genome of Weining rye, elite Chinese rye variety. The assembled contigs (7.74 Gb) accounted 98.47% estimated size (7.86 Gb), with 93.67% (7.25 assigned to seven chromosomes. Repetitive elements constituted 90.31% genome. Compared previously Triticeae genomes, Daniela , Sumaya Sumana...

Background and AimsUnderstanding the genetic basis underlying domestication-related traits (DRTs) is important in order to use wild germplasm efficiently for improving yield, stress tolerance quality of crops. This study was conducted characterize DRTs soybean (Glycine max) using quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping.

Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by the fungus graminearum, represents one of major wheat diseases worldwide, determining severe yield losses and reduction grain quality due to accumulation mycotoxins. The molecular response associated with 2DL FHB resistance QTL was mined through a comprehensive transcriptomic analysis early F. graminearum infection, at 3 days post inoculation, in spikelets rachis. analyses were conducted on two near isogenic lines (NILs) differing for presence (2-2618,...

Abstract Background High-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) have been considered as most important seed storage proteins for wheat flour quality. 1Ay are of great interest because they always silent in common wheat. The presence expressed diploid and tetraploid genotypes makes it possible to investigate molecular information active genes. Results We identified with different electrophoretic mobility from 141 accessions wheats, obtained the complete ORFs 5' flanking sequences genes...

Abstract Basis for the effects of nitrogen (N) on wheat grain storage proteins (GSPs) and establishment processing quality are far from clear. The response GSPs parameters to four N levels common cultivars were investigated at two sites over growing seasons. Except gluten index (GI), as well quantities remarkably improved by increasing level. level explained 4.2~59.2% 10.4~80.0% variability in fractions parameters, respectively. amount remobilized vegetative organs except spike was...

Grain protein content (GPC) and yield are of two important traits in wheat, but their negative correlation has hampered simultaneous improvement conventional breeding. Wild emmer wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides) is an genetic resource for quality improvement. In this study, we report a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using 13116 DArT-seq markers to characterize GPC 161 lines derived from wild emmer. Using general linear model, identified 141 that were significantly associated...

Wheat is one of the important staple crops as resources both food and micronutrient for most people world. However, levels micronutrients (especially Fe Zn) in common wheat are inherently low. Biofortification an effective way to increase concentration wheat. Wild emmer ( Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides , AABB, 2n = 4x 28) germplasm resource improvement. In present study, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed characterize grain iron, zinc, manganese (GFeC, GZnC, GMnC) 161...

The common wheat landrace Chinese Spring (CS) was made famous by the work of Ernie Sears, a great cytogenetist, who developed number CS-based aneuploid series that were used to identify individual chromosomes. Based on this, standard karyotype and nomenclature system for chromosomes allowed researchers analyze manipulate genome with unprecedented precision efficiency. Nevertheless, not much is known about utilization CS at its hometown, Chengdu in Sichuan province, during early breeding...

The ph-like genes in the Chinese common wheat landrace Kaixian-luohanmai (KL) induce homoeologous pairing hybrids with alien species. In present study, meiotic phenotypic differences on chromosome at metaphase I between of genotypes Spring ph1b (CSph1b) and KL rye were studied by genomic situ hybridization (GISH). frequency wheat–wheat associations was higher CSph1b × than rye. However, frequencies wheat–rye rye–rye These may be result different mechanisms control gene(s) controlling CSph1b....

Fluorescence in situ hybridization karyotypes have been widely used for evolutionary analysis on chromosome organization and genetic/genomic diversity the wheat alliance (tribe Triticeae of Poaceae). The karyotpic Aegilops umbellulata, Ae. markgrafii, comosa subsp. subventricosa, uniaristata was evaluated by fluorescence (FISH) probes oligo-pSc119.2 pTa71 combination with (AAC)5, (ACT)7, (CTT)12, respectively. Abundant intra- interspecific genetic variation discovered comosa, but not...

Abstract Background α-Amylase inhibitors are attractive candidates for the control of seed weevils, as these insects highly dependent on starch an energy source. In this study, we aimed to reveal structure and diversity dimeric α-amylase inhibitor genes in wild emmer wheat from Israel elucidate relationship between ecological factors using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. Another objective study was find out whether there were any correlations SNPs functional protein-coding...

Meiotic nonreduction resulting in unreduced gametes is thought to be the predominant mechanism underlying allopolyploid formation plants. Until now, however, its genetic base was largely unknown. The allohexaploid crop common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), which originated from hybrids of T. turgidum L. with Aegilops tauschii Cosson, provides a model address this issue. Our observations meiosis pollen mother cells turgidum×Ae. indicated that first division restitution, exhibited prolonged...
