Foods high in amylose content and resistant starch (RS) offer great potential to improve human health lower the risk of serious noninfectious diseases. Common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major staple food crop globally. However, RS contents grains modern varieties are low. Here, we report generation high-amylose through targeted mutagenesis TaSBEIIa winter cv Zhengmai 7698 (ZM) spring Bobwhite by CRISPR/Cas9, respectively. We generated series transgene-free mutant lines either with...
Whole grain flour is considered a part of healthy diet, especially when produced with pigmented wheat (Triticum aestivum). However, the specific metabolic pathways and mechanisms by which these metabolites affect end-use quality varieties still need to be better understood. This study examined relationship between metabolite concentrations three varieties: common (CW, JM20), black (BW, HJ1), green (GW, HZ148). The study's findings revealed significant differences in accumulation substances...
Plant starch is the main energy contributor to human diet. Its biosynthesis catalyzed and regulated by co-ordinated actions of several enzymes. Recently, a factor termed Protein Targeting Starch 1 (PTST1) was identified as being required for correct granule-bound synthase (GBSS) localization demonstrated be crucial amylose synthesis in Arabidopsis. However, function its homologous protein storage tissues (e.g. endosperm) unknown. We PTST1 homolog barley it found contain coiled-coil domain...
A set of high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) deletion lines were used to investigate the influences HMW-GS on wheat gluten, and dough properties investigated using a lines. Results showed that significantly decreased stability time, as well viscoelastic moduli (G′ G″), compared with wild type, where x-type HMW-GSs (Ax1d, Bx7d, Dy12d) more than y-type (By8d Dy12d). The contents increased α-/γ-gliadin contents. proteomic study down-regulated HMW-GS, β-amylase, serpins, protein...
The effect of high-molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) on gluten polymerization during biscuit making was investigated using a set HMW-GS deletion lines. Results showed that the HMW-GSs improved quality compared with wild type (WT), especially in x-type Slight depolymerization observed dough mixing, while progressive occurred baking. suppressed and gliadin WT baking, These actions resulted less elevation intermolecular β-sheet ordered α-helix altering disulfide (SS) conformation to...
Nitrogen is one basic element of amino acids and grain protein in wheat. In field experiments, wheat plants were subjected to different timing nitrogen topdressing treatments: at the stages emergence top fifth leaf (TL5), third (TL3) first (TL1) test regulatory effects on quality. The underlying mechanisms elucidated by clarifying relationship between proteolysis vegetative organs accumulation endosperm cavity, conversion acids, storage synthesis grain.Delayed up-regulated gene expression...
Frequent drought events especially those occur in the reproductive stages severely restrict global crop productivity. Moderate priming during earlier growth is a promising strategy for plants to resist recurrent severe stress. However, underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we subjected wheat vegetative stage and stress at 10 days after anthesis. We then collected leaf samples ends of priming, recovery periods, transcriptome sequencing combination with phenotypic physiological...
The impact of drought stress on crop yield and quality is substantial. Drought priming during the early growth stage plants has been shown to improve tolerance reproductive stage, although its effects grain remains elusive. This study aimed investigate influence starch protein levels in grains under filling. Our results reveal that a reduction content constituents, while simultaneously increasing glutenin macropolymers fractons. Notably, primed (PD) exhibit mitigated declines components,...
Abstract Drought priming, a potential strategy to bolster wheat yield amidst recurring droughts. Identifying the responsive cultivars and deciphering underlying mechanisms are vital better activate instinct of plants coping with drought stress. Here, responses 157 priming were phenotyped using high-throughput phenotyping (HTP) platform across two wheat-growing seasons. A index (DPI) was devised assess sensitivity for each cultivar. Based on DPI comprehensive score (DPICS) derived from 13...
Starch-gluten interactions are affected by biopolymer type and processing. However, the differentiation mechanisms for gluten-starch during heating have not been illuminated. The effects of glutens from two different wheat flours (a weak-gluten (Yangmai 22, Y22) a medium-strong gluten 16, Y16)) on starch's (S) structural physicochemical properties their molecular were investigated in this study. results showed that hindered gelatinization swelling starch when temperature was below 75 °C, due...
The aim of this study was to test the significant effects inorganic sulfur and cysteine on grain protein flour quality in wheat provide a theoretical basis cultivation techniques with high yield quality. In field experiment, winter cultivar, Yangmai 16, used, five treatments were established, i.e., S0 (no fertilizer application during whole growth period), S(B)60 (60 kg ha-1 applied as basal fertilizer), Cys(B)60 S(J)60 jointing Cys(J)60 fertilizer). at stage showed better influence than...
Nitrogen (N) application increases wheat yield and protein content affects the nutritional quality of grain. Analysis N use efficiency revealed that uptake is a key factor affecting content. Two lines with significant differences in were used to investigate response differential accumulation metabolites levels spatial variation pattern related grains using widely targeted metabolomics analysis. The results showed amino acids, nucleic phytohormones their derivatives glycolytic processes are...
