Article Synopsis
  • * A study identified 49 TaNRT2 genes in wheat through bioinformatics and molecular biology techniques, grouping them into three clades based on gene structure and function, with significant duplication found on chromosome 6.
  • * Expression analysis revealed that three specific TaNRT2 genes were upregulated under low nitrate conditions, especially in the high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) wheat cultivar 'Mianmai367', highlighting their role in nitrate absorption and assimilation.

Variety pedigree contains a lot of information, including parental origin, breeding methods, genetic relationship, and so on. Studying them could reveal the evolution characteristics and rules of breeding and ultimately guide practice. The pedigrees of 326 wheat varieties from 1936 to 2017 in the history of the Sichuan Province was collected and analyzed in terms of breeding methods, parental composition, changes of high frequency parents and backbone parents, genetic contribution, distribution of translocation lines and synthetic germplasms.
