POLYMORPHISM ANALYSIS OF SOME AUTUMN WHEAT GENOTYPES USING DNA MARKERS
ABSTRACT
The present study focuses on the identification of some good quality wheat genotypes for bread-making. Nutritional value and bread-making quality is determined in wheat by high grain protein content (HGPC). Several perspective Romanian wheat lines characterized from the point of view of the kernel protein content on the basis of DNA polymorphism are presented in this paper. The genetic variability among genotypes was evaluated using CAPS (cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences) markers. There were identified 17 wheat genotypes, containing High Grain Protein Content (HGPC) gene in their genom.
