Expressed Portion of the Wheat Genomes
The long term goal of this project is to decipher the chromosomal location and biological
function of all genes in the wheat genomes.
The Structure and Function of the Expressed Portion of the Wheat Genomes
Value and uses of wheat
Worldwide, wheat (bread and durum) is
the most widely grown crop.
With its high protein content, wheat is the
single most important source of plant protein
in the human diet.
In the USA, wheat is the fourth most economically
significant crop and the leading export
crop.

Cumulatively, these deletion stocks define ‘bins’ of various sizes in the physical chromosomes. The full 10,000 ESTs
developed in this project will be mapped into these bins.

The Structure and Function of the Expressed Portion of the Wheat Genomes
Biology of bread wheat
Triticum aestivum L., tribe Triticeae, family Poaceae
Allohexaploid: six component genomes, AABBDD, 2n=6x=42
Bread wheat originated from two hybridization events, the first between two diploid species producing an AABB genome tetraploid, the second between the tetraploid species and another diploid species
Closest relatives to bread wheat in the tribe:the crops durum wheat (tetraploid, AABB), einkorn wheat (diploid, AA), barley (HH), rye (RR), and triticale (AABBRR), numerous weedy annual species of Aegilops and Triticum, and numerous forage species
Diploid species are the sources of the wheat genomes: A from Triticum urartu B from a primitive form of Aegilops speltoides or an extinct close relative D from Aegilops tauschii
The molecular genetic map has some 2000 markers.
Each chromosome pair has a unique pattern of heterochromatic bands allowing unequivocal cytological identification
Wheat tolerates aneuploidy and a huge library of aneuploid stocks exists in many different genotypes. Monosomics Deletions Ditelosomics Translocations Nullisomics-tetrasomics Alien introgression stocks
Aneuploids have been critical in gene discovery, gene mapping, chromosome manipulation, and gene transfer in classical cytogenetics and breeding. Coupled with molecular technology, the aneuploids offer tools for greater progress in all these areas plus gene cloning, transformation, and physical mapping.
Aneuploids have facilitated the understanding of syntenic relationships among thee three genomes: seven homoeologous groups have been defined, each with a chromosome from each genome.
