Frequent duplication and deletion events in the 5S RNA genes and the associated spacer regions of the Triticeae
Graham J. Scoles,Bikram S. Gill,Z. Y. Xin,B. C. Clarke,C. L. McIntyre,C. Chapman,Rudi Appels +6 more
TL;DR: Phenetic relationships were established between the grasses using the sequence data and showed that two Australian grasses were closely related to the other Northern hemisphere genera examined.

TL;DR: All three TaSUT1 genes are expressed at high levels in filling grain, showing a good correlation with the developmental time course of growth, and reinforces the view that in cereals a major role of SUT1 is in the post-phloem sugar transport pathway associated with seed filling.

Amplification and dispersion of repeated DNA sequences in the Triticeae.
TL;DR: Four representatives of a family of dispersed repetitive sequences which were prominent and dispersed in the E genome of Thinopyrum elongatum but poorly represented in wheat, were studied in detail.

Genes active in developing wheat endosperm.
TL;DR: Analysis of a functional class of genes relevant to wheat grain end-use, namely the glutenin/gliadin seed storage protein class of gene, revealed a new category of gene characterised by a distinctive N-terminal domain and a reduced central repetitive domain.
68
The characterisation and mapping of a family of LMW-gliadin genes: effects on dough properties and bread volume.
TL;DR: Analysis of a cDNA library from wheat cv Wyuna endosperm indicated a significant size and sequence variation among seed-endosperm protein genes, and a representative gene from this family was expressed in Escherichia coli and the purified protein was supplemented into a base wheat flour, which provided a 20% increase in loaf height after baking.
