Puroindolines largely influence cereal grain hardness. In order to understand how they exert this influence, we carried out a molecular analysis of the pina and pinb genes of many Italian wheat cultivars. On the basis of their pin genotypes they could be divided into three groups: Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1a; Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b; and Pina-D1b/Pinb-D1a. Five cultivars from each group were chosen to be studied to examine the quantity of puroindolines associated with starch (friabilin) and the amount not associated with starch. In addition, the level of pina expression was measured using RT-PCR. Soft cultivars (Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1a) exhibited the highest level of expression of pina; among the hard cultivars, those with the Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b genotype showed a lower level of expression, while those with the Pina-D1b/Pinb-D1a genotype did not express pina. Total puroindoline and friabilin content was then measured by flow cytometry. Soft Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1a cultivars displayed high puroindoline content that was primarily starch associated. Hard Pina-D1b/Pinb-D1a cultivars had very low puroindoline content with no puroindoline bound to starch. Hard Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b cultivars were highly heterogeneous with respect to both the content of puroindolines and the level of association with starch. The accurate quantification of puroindolines in starch-bound and not starch-bound forms in association with molecular analysis, indicates that pina expression and presence controls the abundance of total puroindoline and its association with starch.Communicated by H.F.

籽粒硬度是小麦加工品质的重要影响因素。puroindoline a(Pina)和puroindoline b(Pinb)是控制小麦籽粒硬度的主效基因。根据已报导的小麦Pinb基因的保守序列,设计合成了一对特异性引物,对高大山羊草Aegilops longissima(SS)的基因组DNA和胚乳RNA进行Pinb基因扩增、克隆、序列测定和表达分析,发现了一个新型Pinb等位基因。基因长360bp,编码119个氨基酸残基,对应于麦类作物Puroindoline B(PinB)成熟蛋白的结构区域,具有麦类作物Pinb基因特有的WPTKWWK的色氨酸结构域基因序列和10个半胱氨酸所形成的5个二硫键结构。与软粒小麦cv.Capitole的Pinb—D1a相比较,其核苷酸和氨基酸同源性分别为93.3%和92.4%。RT—PCR证实了Pinb基因在籽粒胚乳中的表达。研究结果表明,高大山羊草中包含着与小麦差异较大的籽粒硬度控制基因,为栽培小麦品质改良提供了丰富的遗传资源。  相似文献

Summary Resistance to powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Erysiphe graminis f.sp. tritici, has been transferred from Aegilops ventricosa (genomes DvMv) to hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum, ABD). In two transfer lines, H-93-8 and H-93-35, the resistance gene was linked to a gene encoding protein U-1, whereas one line, H-93-33, was resistant but lacked the molecular marker, and another line, H-93-1, was susceptible but carried the gene for U-1, indicating that the original Mv chromosome from Ae. ventricosa, carrying the two genes, had undergone recombination with a wheat chromosome in the last two lines.  相似文献

 A new Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor) resistance gene from Aegilops ventricosa and its transfer to hexaploid wheat is described. The 4D(4Mv) substitution line H-93-33 derived from the cross [(Triticum turgidum H-1-1×Aegilops ventricosa no. 11)×Triticum aestivum H-10-15] was highly resistant to the Spanish population tested. Resistance seemed to be inherited as a single dominant factor in the F2 generation resulting from a cross of H-93-33 with its susceptible parent (H-10-15). Resistance in Ae. venticosa no. 10 was located on chromosome 4Mv using Mv wheat/Ae. ventricosa addition lines. The resistance gene transferred from Ae. ventricosa no. 11 to H-93-33 (H27) is allelic with respect to that of Ae. ventricosa no. 10 and is non-allelic with respect to the genes H3 and H6 from Monon and Caldwell respectively. The assignment of H27 gene to chromosome 4Mv is further supported by its linkage to a gene encoding isozyme Acph-Mv1, previously located on chromosome 4Mv in the line H-93-33. A new marker from homoeologous chromosome group 4 (Amp-Mv2) present in H-93-33 and the 4Mv addition line is described. Received: 12 October 1996 / Accepted: 22 November 1996  相似文献

Summary Stable wheat-Aegilops introgression lines with 42 chromosomes (H-93), derived by repeated selfing from a cross (Triticum turgidum x Aegilops ventricosa) x T. aestivum, have been characterized using the following DNA probes and isozyme markers: (1) single or low-copy DNA fragments from Ae. ventricosa; (2) known cDNA probes corresponding to 1-thionin, monomeric -amylase inhibitor, the CM3 subunit of tetrameric -amylase inhibitor, and sucrose synthase from wheat; (3) anonymous cDNA probes from wheat that have been mapped by Sharp et al. (1989); (4) isozyme markers corresponding to aconitase, shikimate dehydrogenase, adenylate kinase, and endopeptidase. Meiotic metaphases of appropriate hybrids involving selected H-93 lines have been investigated by the Giemsa C-banding technique. The substitution of whole chromosomes [(5A) 5Mv; (4D) 4Mv; (5D) 5Mv; (7D) 7Mv] and chromosomal segments (1Mv; 3Mv; 5Mv; 7Mv) from the Mv genome of Aegilops ventricosa has been demonstrated. The distribution of selected markers among putative wheat-Ae. ventricosa addition lines has also been investigated. The 7Mv addition has been characterized for the first time, while the identity of the previously reported 5Mv and 6Mv additions has been confirmed.  相似文献

Puroindoline a (Pin-a) and puroindoline b (Pin-b), two basic isoforms encoded by the Pina-D1 and Pinb-D1 loci respectively, involved in controlling grain texture in wheat, were isolated from starch granules of soft wheat cultivars using three different extraction procedures, and fractionated by acidic polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (A-PAGE). Tris buffer containing 1% Triton X-114 extracted Pin-a and small amounts of Pin-b, whereas 1% SDS preferably extracted Pin-b. Large amounts of both puroindolines were isolated by a solution containing 50% propan-2-ol and 50 mM NaCl. This solution extracted reduced amounts of Pin-b and no traces of Pin-a from starch granules of 20 hard common wheats containing the null allele Pina-D1b. The absence of Pin-a was confirmed by immunostaining with an anti-Pin-a antiserum. With the exception of two cultivars, null Pin-a cultivars gave no PCR fragment with three primer pairs specific to either the coding region or the promoter region of Pina-D1a, suggesting that major changes had occurred at the Pina-D1 locus in these genotypes. Cultivars Fortuna and Glenman were unique in giving size-specific PCR fragments with all primer pairs for the allele Pina-D1a and showed a cytosine deletion at position 267 in the coding region of the Pin-a gene, which resulted in a TGA stop codon at position 361. However, there was no evidence of a mutated protein in the A-PAGE or SDS-PAGE patterns of Fortuna and Glenman. The novel gene, provisionally named Pina-D1c, is the first null allele due to a point mutation that has been identified at the Pina-D1 locus.  相似文献

Puroindolines: the molecular genetic basis of wheat grain hardness   总被引:44,自引:0,他引:44  
The variation in grain hardness is the single most important trait that determines end-use quality of wheat. Grain texture classification is based primarily on either the resistance of kernels to crushing or the particle size distribution of ground grain or flour. Recently, the molecular genetic basis of grain hardness has become known, and it is the focus of this review. The puroindoline proteins a and b form the molecular basis of wheat grain hardness or texture. When both puroindolines are in their `functional' wild state, grain texture is soft. When either one of the puroindolines is absent or altered by mutation, then the result is hard texture. In the case of durum wheat which lacks puroindolines, the texture is very hard. Puroindolines represent the molecular-genetic basis of the Hardness locus on chromosome 5DS and the soft (Ha) and hard (ha) alleles present in hexaploid bread wheat varieties. To date, seven discrete hardness alleles have been described for wheat. All involve puroindoline a or b and have been designated Pina-D1b and Pinb-D1b through Pinb-D1g. A direct role of a related protein, grain softness protein (as currently defined), in wheat grain texture has yet to be demonstrated.  相似文献

Summary The distribution of three biochemical markers, U-1, CM-4 and Aphv-a, -b, among wheat-Aegilops addition lines carrying Mv chromosomes from Aegilops ventricosa (genomes DvMv) has been investigated. Addition lines which had been previously grouped together on the basis of common non-biochemical characters carried marker U-1, a protein component from the 2M urea extract. The added chromosome, in the appropriate genetic background, seems to confer a high level of resistance to the eyespot disease, caused by the fungus Cercosporella herpotrichoides. The other two markers were concomitantly associated with another similarly formed group of addition lines. Both CM-4, a protein component from the chloroform:methanol extract, and Aphv-a, -b, alkaline phosphate isozymes, have been previously shown to be associated with homoeologous chromosome group 4, which suggests that the added chromosome in the second group of addition lines is 4Mv.  相似文献

The hardness or texture of cereal grains is a primary determinant of their technological and processing quality. Among members of the Triticeae, most notably wheat, much of the variation in texture is controlled by a single locus comprised of the Puroindoline a, Puroindoline b and Grain Softness Protein-1 (Gsp-1) genes. Puroindolines confer the three major texture classes of soft and hard common wheat and the very hard durum wheat. The protein products of these genes interact with lipids and are associated with the surface of isolated starch (as a protein fraction known as ‘friabilin’). During the past ten years a great diversity of alleles of both Puroindoline genes have been discovered and significant advances made in understanding the relationship between the gene presence/absence, sequence polymorphism and texture of cereal grains. Efforts have also focussed on Puroindoline and Gsp-1 genes in diploid progenitors, other Triticeae grasses and synthetic wheats in order to understand the evolution of this gene family and find potentially useful variants. The puroindoline homologues in other cereals such as rye and barley are also receiving attention. This work summarises new developments in molecular genetics of puroindolines in wheat and related Triticeae grasses, and the related genes in other cereals.  相似文献

粗山羊草(Aegilops tauschii)中Pinb基因的克隆和表达分析   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
puroindoline a(Pina)和puroindoline b(Pinb)是控制小麦籽粒硬度的主效基因。根据已报道的小麦Pinb基因的保守序列,设计合成了一对特异性引物,对粗山羊草Aegilops tauschii(DD)的基因组DNA进行Pinb基因扩增、克隆和序列分析,发现了一个新型Pinb等位基因。该基因长447 bp,编码148个氨基酸残基,具有麦类作物PinB蛋白所特有的WPTKWWK色氨酸结构域和10个半胱氨酸所形成的5个二硫键结构。与软粒小麦cv.Capitole的Pinb-D1a相比较,该基因含有14个氨基酸变异位点,其中包括一个紧邻色氨酸结构域的变异位点(Val66Phe),其核苷酸和氨基酸同源性分别为93.3%和90.5%。RT-PCR和Western Blot证实了Pinb基因在籽粒胚乳中的表达。Southern Blot分析结果表明,粗山羊草中Pinb基因为单拷贝。研究结果表明,粗山羊草中包含着与小麦差异较大的籽粒硬度控制基因,对此基因的进一步研究将加深对小麦籽粒硬度形成分子机制的了解。  相似文献

Summary The gene encoding a variant of alcohol dehydrogenase, Adh-, has been found to be associated with the chromosome of the Mv genome which is present in type 9 wheat/Aegilops ventricosa addition line, to which the genes for protein CM-4 and for a phosphatase variant, Aph-v, had been previously assigned. Transfer line H-93-33, which has 42 chromosomes and has been derived from the cross (Triticum turgidum x Ae. ventricosa) x T. aestivum, carries genes encoding all three biochemical markers. Linkage between these genes has been demonstrated by analysis of individual kernels of the F2 (H-93-33 x T. aestivum cv. Almatense H-10-15). A study of the hybrids of line H-93-33 with T. aestivum H-10-15 and with the 4DS ditelosomic line has confirmed that, as suspected, the linkage group corresponds to chromosome 4Mv from Ae. ventricosa. Additionally, it has been found that the previously reported resistance of line H-93-33 to powdery mildew (Erysiphe graminis) is also linked to the biochemical markers; this indicates that either the gene responsible for it is different from that in lines H-93-8 and H-93-35, or that a translocation between two different Mv chromosomes has occurred in line H-93-33.  相似文献

The starch granule proteins from 113 einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum ssp monococcum) accessions were analyzed by acidic, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (A-PAGE), and two-dimensional A-PAGE x SDS-PAGE. All accessions were confirmed to contain equal amounts of two polypeptide chains corresponding to puroindoline B (Pin-B), as well as a prominent component plus a faint band corresponding to puroindoline A (Pin-A). When compared with soft-textured common wheat, “monococcum” accessions showed an increase of 3.2- and 2.7-fold in Pin-A and Pin-B levels on the starch granules, respectively. In addition, all accessions contained a novel component of the 2S super-family of seed proteins named Einkorn Trypsin Inhibitor (ETI), which was found to be encoded as a pre-protein 148 residues long. Wild-type ETI encoded by allele Eti-A m 1a and “valine-type” ETI encoded by allele Eti-A m 1b, which occurred in 107 and six einkorn accessions, respectively, were found to accumulate on starch granules as a mature protein of 121 amino acids with a hydrophobic central domain. The einkorn accessions exhibited an average SKCS index as low as −2.05 ± 11.4, which is typical of extra-soft kernels. The total surface area of starch granules in “monococcum” wheat, as determined by visual assessments in counting chambers, was estimated at 764 mm2/mg of starch, and was about 1.5 times higher than that for common wheat. The results are discussed in relation to the identification of factors that cause the extra-soft texture of einkorn kernels.  相似文献

Lines of wheat with the 6Mv chromosome from Aegilops ventricosa display partial resistance to both pathotypes Hal2 and Ha41 of Heterodera avenae. With either pathotype, the effect of this alien chromosome on cyst production, size, and fecundity was expressed in resistance tests. Partial resistance of five 6Mv(6D) substitution lines varied according to the intrinsic cyst-forming capacity of the nematode pathotypes and the recipient germplasms. Such partial resistance can be utilized in wheat breeding lines for integrated management of the cereal cyst nematode.  相似文献

Developing seeds from Triticum aestivum (wheat) cultivars were collected after flowering and analysed for puroindoline a and b gene expression by Real Time RT-PCR. Mature seeds were investigated for the presence and the amount of starch-associated puroindoline a and b proteins by flow cytometry. Puroindoline a gene and protein were found to have a predominant role in controlling wheat kernel hardness.  相似文献

Kernel hardness that is conditioned by puroindoline genes has a profound effect on milling, baking and end-use quality of bread wheat. In this study, 219 landraces and 166 historical cultivars from China and 12 introduced wheats were investigated for their kernel hardness and puroindoline alleles, using molecular and biochemical markers. The results indicated that frequencies of soft, mixed and hard genotypes were 42.7, 24.3, and 33.0%, respectively, in Chinese landraces and 45.2, 13.9, and 40.9% in historical cultivars. The frequencies of PINA null, Pinb-D1b and Pinb-D1p genotypes were 43.8, 12.3, and 39.7%, respectively, in hard wheat of landraces, while 48.5, 36.8, and 14.7%, respectively, in historical hard wheats. A new Pinb-D1 allele, designated Pinb-D1t, was identified in two landraces, Guangtouxianmai and Hongmai from the Guizhou province, with the characterization of a glycine to arginine substitution at position 47 in the coding region of Pinb gene. Surprisingly, a new Pina-D1 allele, designated Pina-D1m, was detected in the landrace Hongheshang, from the Jiangsu province, with the characterization of a proline to serine substitution at position 35 in the coding region of Pina gene; it was the first novel mutation found in bread wheat, resulting in a hard endosperm with PINA expression. Among the PINA null genotypes, an allele designed as Pina-D1l, was detected in five landraces with a cytosine deletion at position 265 in Pina locus; while another novel Pina-D1 allele, designed as Pina-D1n, was identified in six landraces, with the characterization of an amino acid change from tryptophan-43 to a ‘stop’ codon in the coding region of Pina gene. The study of puroindoline polymorphism in Chinese wheat germplasm could provide useful information for the further understanding of the molecular basis of kernel hardness in bread wheat.  相似文献

Puroindoline a(Pina)和puroindoline b(Pinb)是控制小麦籽粒硬度的主效基因。根据已报道的小麦Pinb基因的保守序列,设计合成了一对特异性引物,对六倍体牡山羊草Aegilops juvenalis(UUMMDD)的基因组DNA和胚乳eDNA进行Pinb基因扩增、克隆和序列测定,发现了两个新型Pinb等位基因Pinb-allele-1和Pinb-allele-2。该基因全长360bp,编码119个氨基酸残基。它编码的蛋白和麦类作物Puroindoline B(PinB)的成熟蛋白有非常高的同源性,具有麦类作物PinB蛋白所特有的WPTKWWK的色氨酸结构域和10个半胱氨酸所形成的5个二硫键结构。与软粒小麦ev.Capitole的Pinb-D1a相比较,其核苷酸同源性为93.1%、93.3%,氨基酸同源性为90.8%、92.4%。Pinb。allele。1和Pinb—allele一2分别含有11和9个氨基酸变异位点。RT—PCR证实了Pinb—allele一2基因在籽粒胚乳中的表达。SouthernBlot分析结果表明,牡山羊草中含有两个拷贝的Pinb基因,其中包含着与小麦差异较大的籽粒硬度控制基因。  相似文献

RAPD analysis was carried out to study the genetic variation and phylogenetic relationships of polyploid Aegilops species, which contain the D genome as a component of the alloploid genome, and diploid Aegilops tauschii, which is a putative donor of the D genome for common wheat. In total, 74 accessions of six D-genome Aegilops species were examined. The highest intraspecific variation (0.03–0.21) was observed for Ae. tauschii. Intraspecific distances between accessions ranged 0.007–0.067 in Ae. cylindrica, 0.017–0.047 in Ae. vavilovii, and 0–0.053 inAe. juvenalis.Likewise, Ae. ventricosaand Ae. crassa showed low intraspecific polymorphism. The among-accession difference in alloploidAe. ventricosa (genome DvNv) was similar to that of one parental species, Ae. uniaristata (N), and substantially lower than in the other parent, Ae. tauschii (D). The among-accession difference in Ae. cylindrica(CcDc) was considerably lower than in either parent, Ae. tauschii (D) orAe. caudata (C). With the exception of Ae. cylindrica, all D-genome species—Ae. tauschii (D),Ae. ventricosa (DvNv), Ae. crassa (XcrDcr1 and XcrDcr1Dcr2), Ae. juvenalis (XjDjUj), andAe. vavilovii (XvaDvaSva)—formed a single polymorphic cluster, which was distinct from clusters of other species. The only exception, Ae. cylindrica(CcDc), did not group with the other D-genome species, but clustered withAe. caudata (C), a donor of the C genome. The cluster of these two species was clearly distinct from the cluster of the other D-genome species and close to a cluster of Ae. umbellulata (genome U) and Ae. ovata (genome UgMg). Thus, RAPD analysis for the first time was used to estimate and to compare the interpopulation polymorphism and to establish the phylogenetic relationships of all diploid and alloploid D-genome Aegilops species.  相似文献

Puccinia triticina (Pt), the causal agent of leaf rust evolves through forming new pathotypes that adversely affect the growth and yield of wheat cultivars. Therefore, continued production of resistant varieties through exploring novel sources of resistance in wild relatives which are abundantly found in Iran and the neighbouring regions is a major task in wheat breeding programs. The aim of the present study was to explore 60 wild wheat genotypes selected from the species Triticum monococcum, Aegilops tauschii, Ae. neglecta, Ae. cylindrica, Ae. triuncialis, Ae. umbellulata, Ae. speltoides, Ae. columnaris, Ae. crassa and Ae. ventricosa for resistance to leaf rust. The cultivar ‘Boolani’ and Thatcher near-isogenic lines were used as controls. Two-week-old seedlings were inoculated using 10 Pt pathotypes, and the infection types were recorded. The genotypes were also analysed for polymorphism using six sequence-tagged sites (STS) and sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers. Forty-eight genotypes produced high infection types (3+) for two pathotypes, but the remaining genotypes produced low infection types of ‘0; =’ to ‘1+CN’ to all pathotypes. The latter included three accessions of Ae. tauschii, two accessions of each Ae. umbellulata, Ae. columnaris and Triticum monococcum, and one accession from each Ae. triuncialis, Ae. ventricosa and Ae. neglecta. Analysis for STS and SCAR markers suggested several genotypes could carry the genes Lr9, Lr10, Lr19, Lr24, Lr26 and Lr37 or their potential orthologs in addition to unknown resistance genes. In conclusion, the identified resistant genotypes could be further characterized and used in wheat breeding programs for leaf rust resistance.  相似文献

The high-molecular-weight (HMW) glute-nin subunit composition of seven species from the Cylindropyrum and Vertebrata sections of the Aegilops genus was studied using SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis. Two subunits were detected in Ae. caudata and three in Ae. cylindrica. In both species, subunits showing electrophoretic mobility similar to that of 1Dx2 were present. Western blot analysis using a monoclonal antibody (IFRN 1602) specific for the 1Ax and 1Dx subunits of bread wheat showed that the 1Dx-like subunit of Ae. caudata gave only a weak reaction. This indicates that Ae. caudata expresses subunits which are more distantly related to the 1Dx subunits. Two subunits were detected in each of the 60 accessions of Ae. tauschii, including several 1Dtx subunits showing different electrophoretic mobilities from those of the 1Dx subunits commonly found in bread wheat. All of the 1Dtx subunits reacted strongly with IFRN 1602, confirming their close relationship to the 1Dx subunits of bread wheat. Three subunits were found in Ae. crassa (6 x), four in Ae. ventricosa and Ae. juvenalis and five in Ae. vavilovii. In these four species, the subunits that showed electrophoretic mobility similar, or close, to that of 1Dx2 all reacted with IFRN 1602. In addition, Ae. ventricosa contained a subunit showing electrophoretic mobility slower than that of 1Dx2.2, which also reacted with IFRN 1602. These results suggest that the D-genome component in the multiploid Aegilops species express at least one HMW glutenin subunit that is structurally related to the 1Dx subunits of bread wheat.
