Location of the loci that control preharvest sprouting and alpha-amylase activity in rye was studied based on intercross S120×S76, consisting of 110 genotypes of F2 and F3 progenies. The genetic map currently consists of 141 loci distributed in 11 linkage groups, covering a distance of 506.4 cM, and was enriched during this study with 24 sequence-specific markers (7 SCARs, 7 SSRs, and 10 STSs). The extended map was applied for composite interval mapping of the loci controlling preharvest sprouting and α-amylase activity, revealing 3 significant QTLs for preharvest sprouting, located on chromosomes 3R, 5R and 6R (in 1999), and one QTL for α-amylase activity found on chromosome 2R (in 2000).

Article Synopsis
  • The Huanghuai region in China is crucial for wheat production, primarily growing white-grained wheat, and faces challenges like pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) that affect yield and quality.
  • This study evaluated 344 wheat varieties for PHS resistance over two growing seasons, finding high average rates of PHS but significant genetic variation and stability among the varieties.
  • It identified key haplotypes and advantageous genotype combinations that exhibited the strongest PHS resistance, highlighting the importance of breeding for improved varieties to enhance wheat production security.

Background: Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is one of the most important problems associated with the severe decrease of yield and quality under disaster weather of continuous rain in wheat harvesting stage. At present, the functions and mechanisms related to the involvement of post-transcriptional regulation has not been studied very clearly in PHS resistance.

Results: This study compared the differences of germinated seeds in miRNAome between the PHS-tolerant and PHS-susceptible white wheat varieties.

Preharvest sprouting (PHS) is an unfavorable trait in cereal crops that significantly reduces grain yield and quality. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying this complex trait are still largely unknown. Here, 276 rice accessions from the 3000 Rice Genomes Project were used to perform a genome-wide association study.

Identification and quantitative trait locus mapping of Tartary buckwheat pre-harvest sprouting.

J Sci Food Agric

Research Center of Buckwheat Industry Technology, College of Life Science, Guizhou Normal University, Huaxi University Town, Gui'an New District, China.

Background: Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tartaricum) is particularly vulnerable to pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) due to its extended flowering and fruiting cycle, especially during periods of prolonged rainfall. This susceptibility has significant adverse effects on yield, quality and post-harvest processing. In this study, a recombinant inbred lines (RILs) population (XJ-RILs) was developed from a cross between the PHS-susceptible Tartary buckwheat variety 'Xiaomiqiao' (female parent) and the highly PHS-resistant variety 'Jinqiaomai 2' (male parent).
