Addition of Aegilops geniculata 1Ug chromosome improves the dough rheological properties by changing the composition and micro-structure of gluten

2021 
Abstract Aegilops geniculata, a relative of common wheat, has many useful traits for the improvements of wheat varieties. The wheat-Ae. geniculata disomic addition lines (DALs) carrying prior traits need to be characterized for wheat varieties improvement. We currently found that CS-1Ug (Chinese Spring-Ae. geniculata 1Ug DAL) possessed improved dough rheological properties than CS (Chinese Spring) did, and investigated the reasons of those rheological changes in dough. The results showed that CS-1Ug carries a novel high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS), a substitute for Dx2 from CS, which led to the changes in the relative proportion of individual HMW-GS in total HMW-GSs. Changes in gluten composition improved the stability and elasticity of dough by promoting the accumulation of unextractable polymeric protein, and optimizing the micro-structure of the gluten. The current study provides basic information on CS-1Ug used as a potential resource for future wheat quality breeding.
