RNA interference-based gene silencing as an efficient tool for functional genomics in hexaploid bread wheat.
Insertional mutagenesis and gene silencing are efficient tools for the determination of gene function. In contrast to gain- or loss-of-function approaches, RNA interference (RNAi)-induced gene silencing can possibly silence multigene families and homoeologous genes in polyploids. This is of great importance for functional studies in hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum), where most of the genes a...
متن کاملGenetic and epigenetic alteration among three homoeologous genes of a class E MADS box gene in hexaploid wheat.
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a hexaploid species with A, B, and D ancestral genomes. Most bread wheat genes are present in the genome as triplicated homoeologous genes (homoeologs) derived from the ancestral species. Here, we report that both genetic and epigenetic alterations have occurred in the homoeologs of a wheat class E MADS box gene. Two class E genes are identified in wheat, whea...
متن کاملVirus vector for gene silencing in wheat.
Wheat, rice, and maize account for more than 85% of the world’s cereal production (apps.fao.org/default.jsp), and the increasing global demand for wheat heightens the need for new varieties with improved disease resistance, tolerance to abiotic stresses, and grain quality. Incorporation of such desirable traits via biotechnological approaches first requires thorough characterization of genes an...

متن کاملGene expression profiles of hybrid necrosis in synthetic hexaploid wheat
Some abnormal growth phenotypes including hybrid necrosis are often observed in F1 hybrids (genome constitution, ABD, 2n=21) and synthetic hexaploid wheat lines (AABBDD, 2n=42) which were artificially produced by crossing between tetraploid wheat (AABB, 2n=28) and Ae. tauschii (DD, 2n=14). The hybrid necrosis phenotypes are generally divided into type I and type II necrosis. In the hybrid plant...
