The invention discloses a wheat character improvement and new
germplasm creation method based on apparent modification change, which is characterized in that a
gene H3K27M (the
nucleotide sequence is as shown in SEQ ID NO.1, and the coded
amino acid sequence is as shown in SEQ ID NO.2) obtained by mutating
lysine (K) at the 27th site of rice
histone H3 into
methionine (M) is introduced into wheat Fielder, so that the modification level of a wheat whole
genome H3K27me3 is reduced. Experiments prove that the wheat material obtained by the method can significantly improve the
drought tolerance of wheat, improve the
grain quality and increase the yield-related traits. The H3K27M
gene and related
biological materials thereof provided by the invention can be used for improving the yield, quality and
drought tolerance of wheat, an efficient technical approach is provided for rapidly cultivating new
germplasm of high-yield, high-quality and drought-tolerant wheat, and the H3K27M
gene and related
biological materials have important significance on guaranteeing grain safety, promoting wheat breeding technology upgrading and accelerating the breeding process.
