Population genomic analysis of Aegilops tauschii identifies targets for bread...
AbstractAegilops tauschii, the diploid wild progenitor of the D subgenome of bread wheat, is a reservoir of genetic diversity for improving bread wheat performance and... -
LYS3 encodes a prolamin-box-binding transcription factor that controls embryo...
Mutations at the LYS3 locus in barley have multiple effects on grain development, including an increase in embryo size and a decrease in endosperm starch content. The gene... -
Optimisation of droplet digital PCR for determining copy number variation of ...
Targeted and random mutagenesis of gene families require accurate quantification. Droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) enables high-throughput screening of copy number variation (CNV).... -
A carbohydrate-binding protein, B-GRANULE CONTENT 1, influences starch granul...
Abstract In Triticeae endosperm (e.g. wheat and barley), starch granules have a bimodal size distribution (with A- and B-type granules) whereas in other grasses the endosperm... -
Transfer of a starch phenotype from wild wheat to bread wheat by deletion of ...
Our previous genetic analysis of a tetraploid wild wheat species, Aegilops peregrina, predicted that a single gene per haploid genome, Bgc-1, controls B-type starch granule... -
A carbohydrate-binding protein, FLOURY ENDOSPERM 6 influences the initiation ...
Previously, we identified a quantitative trait locus on the group 4 chromosomes of Aegilops and bread wheat that controls B-type starch-granule content. Here, we identify a... -
Development of the GlutEnSeq capture system for sequencing gluten gene famili...
We developed an in-solution gluten exome capture system called GlutEnSeq (Gluten gene Enrichment and Sequencing), covering the sequence variation of thousands of prolamin genes...
