The improvement of yield potential is an ultimate goal of wheat breeding programs.High yielding and photosynthesis rate are closely related with the flag leaves that are the main resource of photosynt
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f.sp.tritici, is one of the most devastating wheat diseases, widely distributing throughout the world, particularly in humid regions.
High molecular weight (HMW) glutenin subunits are important seed storage proteins in wheat and its related species.Novel HMW glutenin subunits in Aegilops tauschii were detected and characterized.
GIBBERELLIN-INSENSITIVE DWARF1 (GID1) functions as a gibberellin (GA) receptor and is a key componentin the GA signaling pathway.In this paper, three TaGID1 genes, orthologous to rice OsGID1 (the firs
Wheat flour is a basic food ingredient, being used to produce bread, noodles, biscuits and a wide range of other products.Protein of flour is the crucial determinant of these products quality, which a
Rye is an important and valuable gene resource for wheat improvement.However, due to the extensive growing of cultivars with the disease resistance genes from short arm of rye chromosome 1R and the co
Low concentration or deficiencies of bioavailable micronutrients in staple food result in micronutrient malnutrition.The understanding of the genetic basis for micronutrient concentration in wheat gra
