Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a wheat high-quality high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit gene and its expressed protein. Background technique
[0002] Wheat is the world's largest food crop, and wheat high molecular weight glutenin subunits are important factors that directly affect wheat quality. The type and quantity of wheat high-molecular-weight-glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) are directly related to the elasticity and strength of gluten, and play an important role in the baking quality of flour. Payne et al. (1984) found that HMW-GS, which only accounts for 10% of the total gluten, determines 43% of the baking quality of bread, and together with the total amount of protein, it determines about 68% of the variance of bread processing quality. The Glu-1 complex gene loci (Glu-A1, Glu-B1, Glu-D1) encoding HMW-GS in the wheat genome and the HMW-GS encoded by different alleles have different contributions...
