Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular breeding, and in particular relates to a KASP marker primer set for detecting wheat waxy gene and its application. Background technique
[0002] Starch is the main component of wheat endosperm and plays a key role in food and non-food industries. Starch contains 20% to 30% amylose and 70% to 80% amylopectin, of which granule bound starch synthase (Granulebound starch synthase, GBSSⅠ) is responsible for the synthesis of amylose, also known as Wx protein. Flour with low amylose content usually has higher sizing viscosity, expansion potential and better gelatinization performance. When the amylose content of waxy wheat flour is very low, the bread made is porous, sticky and easy to deform. The resulting noodles are brittle, extremely soft, and difficult to maintain the noodle shape. Wheat is known to contain 3 waxy genes, which are located on chromosome 7A (Wx-A1), 4A (Wx-B1) and 7D (Wx-D1), resp...
