Gene Notes

Isolation of a VP1 homologue from wheat and analysis of its expression in embryos of dormant and non-dormant cultivars

Abstract

A VP (Viviparous) 1 homologous gene has been cloned from wheat (Triticum aestivumL.). Its expression level was examined in the mature embryos of dormant and non-dormant cultivars. The level of expression was positively correlated with the level of seed dormancy and embryo sensitivity to abscisic acid (ABA).

Key words: Wheat VP1 gene, dormancy, abscisic acid.
