Zebularine is a cytidine analogue which has an ability to cause DNA demethylation in plants and many other organisms which resulted in gene reactivation and chromosome structural variations.
Oligodeoxynucleotides (oligos hereafter) are short (20~50 nt) and single stand DNA molecules which are widely used in genetic research.The use of specific oligos as probes makes FISH more rapidly and
Flour falling number (FN) is an important trait because of not only relating with pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) tolerance but processing quality.Waxy wheat usually has low flour falling number (FN) with
Cytosine methylation is a well recognized epigenetic mark.Here, the methylation status of a salinity tolerant (cv.SR3, derived from a somatic hybridization event) and its progenitor parent (cv.JN177)
High molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) are significant in the determination of grain processing quality.However, the diversity and variations of HMW-GSs are relatively low in bread wheat.
Chromosome translocation is an important driving force in the evolutionary process and crop breeding that can immediately change gene linkages and gene expression.
Comparisons in genetic diversity suggested that continental lineages display higher levels of genetic diversity and differentiation from their island relatives, and the low degree of genetic diversity
Elytrigia Desv.is one of the important perennial genera in the tribe Triticeae (Poaceae).Desvaux first established it based on Triticum repense L.in 1810 because of the strongly rhizimaous chracter, a
