Gene expression profile of wheat seedling response to drought stress by cDNA-AFLP
Zhang Y, Li J, Wang Z, Fan Z, Wang H, Zhang H (2012). Gene expression profile of wheat seedling response to drought stress by cDNA-AFLP. Journal of Triticeae Crops 32(2):240–244. (G7010.02.01). Article in Chinese with abstract in English. Not open access: view online
Drought is one of the most adverse environmental factors affecting wheat yield and quality. Under drought stress, target genes in wheat could be activated and expressed to produce drought-induced proteins, enabling plants to actively adapt to drought, and to maintain survival and yield formation. So, studying on drought-induced proteins and the related genes is essential for future genetic engineering and crop breeding of drought-resisting and water-saving. The objective of this research is to analyse the gene expression profile of wheat under drought stress, and to detect the fragments related to drought-resistant gene expression. Genes induced by drought stress in the seedling of Xinjiang spring wheat cultivar Xinchun 6 at 2-leaf stage were analysed by cDNA-AFLP techniques.

Journal of Shanxi Agricultural Sciences 40(6):596–598, 623. (DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1002-2481.2012.06.09). (G7010.02.01). Article in Chinese with abstract in English. Not open access: view online
According to additive inheritance and supplementary principle of parental traits, we took Jinmai 62 as female parent to hybrid with 98- 6160 as male. In the early generation, we selected the materials by planting in dry or irrigated land alternatively. In the high- generation, we evaluated the materials by measuring yield, selecting wheat spikes, surveying the agronomic traits in field and investigating the seed traits indoor. All above methods made the useful genes from parents expressed in Chang 8744 as drought resistance plus high yield, wide adaptability plus stable yield variety and super comprehensive agronomic performances.

Taking thirty-seven hexaploid wheat (AABBDD) accessions with different drought resistance at seedling stage, three wheat species with A genome (AA), and three tetraploid wheat species (AABB) as test materials, and by direct sequencing the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in TaCRTA, this paper analysed the relationships of the SNP with the drought resistance of wheat (Triticum aestivum) at its seedling stage, and mapped the TaCRTA on the chromosome of wheat.

The purpose of the present research is to reveal the variation of canopy temperature and photosynthetic characteristics and their impact on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield under drought stress. A set of introgression BC3F5 lines (ILs) generated from repeated backcross [(Lumai 14 X Jinmai 47) X Lumai 14] were used as the plant materials. The donor parent Jinmai 47 was a drought tolerant cultivar, the recurrent parent Lumai 14 as a high yield potential cultivar under well-watered condition.

Acta Agronomica Sinica 38(6):962–970. (DOI: 10.3724/SP.J.1006.2012.00962). (G7010.02.01). Article in Chinese with abstract in English. Not open access: view online
Elite alleles associated with chlorophyll content of flag leaf in a natural population of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) consisting of 262 accessions were measured at flowering and grain-filling stages under both rainfed and well-watered conditions in two experimental locations in Beijing, China. A total of 169 SSR markers distributed on the 21 chromosomes of wheat were employed to detect the genetic diversity and genetic structure of the population. Association analysis between SSR loci and chlorophyll content trait was performed using TASSEL MLM (mixed linear model) program.

ParentChecker: a computer program for automated inference of missing parental genotype calls and linkage phase correction
Hu Z, Ehlers JD, Roberts PA, Close TJ, Lucas MR, Wanamaker S, Xu S (2012). ParentChecker: a computer program for automated inference of missing parental genotype calls and linkage phase correction. BMC Genetics 13:9. (DOI: 10.1186/1471-2156-13-9). (G6010.02/G7010.07.01).
ParentChecker is a user-friendly tool that uses the segregation patterns of progeny to infer missing genotype information of parental lines that have been used to construct a mapping population. It can also be used to automate correction of linkage phase errors in genotypic data that are in ABH format.
ParentChecker efficiently improves genetic mapping datasets for cases where parental information is incomplete by automating the process of inferring missing genotypes of inbred mapping populations and can also be used to correct linkage phase errors in ABH formatted datasets.
