AI Article Synopsis

  • * Traditional breeding has made some improvements, but modern genetic engineering techniques have been underutilized in wheat compared to other crops like maize and soybean.
  • * New advancements in gene cloning and transformation are paving the way for a "super wheat" that is more resistant to pests and diseases, has better nutritional value, and can withstand climate change, while also addressing the needs of breeders and legal regulations.

Article Abstract

Wheat is the predominant crop worldwide, contributing approximately 20% of protein and calories to the human diet. However, the yield potential of wheat faces limitations due to pests, diseases, and abiotic stresses. Although conventional breeding has improved desirable traits, the use of modern transgenesis technologies has been limited in wheat in comparison to other crops such as maize and soybean. Recent advances in wheat gene cloning and transformation technology now enable the development of a super wheat consistent with the One Health goals of sustainability, food security, and environmental stewardship. This variety combines traits to enhance pest and disease resistance, elevate grain nutritional value, and improve resilience to climate change. In this review, we explore ways to leverage current technologies to combine and transform useful traits into wheat. We also address the requirements of breeders and legal considerations such as patents and regulatory issues.

Unlabelled: Heterosis, a key technology in modern commercial maize breeding, is limited by the narrow genetic base which hinders breeders from developing superior hybrid varieties. By integrating big data and functional genomics technologies, it becomes possible to create new super maize inbred lines that resemble hybrid varieties through the aggregation of multiple QTL parental advantage loci. In this study, we utilized a combination of resequencing and field selfing selection methods to develop three pyramiding QTL lines (PQLs) (PQL4, 6, and 7), each containing 15, 12, and 12 QTL loci respectively.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the most harmful mycotoxins that poses great health threats to human and animals. Herein, a simple and sensitive magnetic beads-based fluorescent biosensor was successfully prepared for detection of DON in cereals. A stable double-stranded DNA (dsDNA, biotin-sDNA+FAM-cDNA/AP) was formed on the surface of streptavidin-coated magnetic beads (SMBs).

The toughening coix seed oil (CSO) high internal phase Pickering emulsion (CSO-HIPES) and gel (CSO-HIPESG) comprised of carrageenan (CR)/super-deamidated-gluten (SDG) micro-particles (CR/SDG) were investigated via acid-heat induction. Results showed polysaccharide natural deep eutectic solvent (P-NADES) by citric acid-glucose-carrageenan ((CGCR), molar ratio at 1:1:0.035) was the crucial for the preparation of SDG (deamidation degree, 99.

Innovative super-hydrophilic/superoleophobic eco-friendly sponge composite is fabricated by integrating chemically-modified cellulose with lignin derived from bio-waste wheat-straw. Such combination is implemented by modifying cellulose with thiadiazole-amide and integrating it with lignin using microwave/ultrasonic-powered in-liquid plasma. Physicochemical characteristics of sponge-composite (WL-TDAC) are studied using FTIR, N-physisorption, DLS, SEM, chemical-computational analysis, and surface wettability.
