When GPC transcription factor in hexaploid wheat is down-regulated by stable RNA interference (GPC RNAi), senescence is significantly delayed and grain protein content together with the overall nutrient partitioning to the grain is greatly reduced. mRNA-seq was used to catalogue the genes that are r...

To explore the effect of stable RNAi on the small RNA (sRNA) population in wheat, we constructed a sRNA library from hexaploid wheat that expresses an RNAi construct under the 35S promoter that targets the endogenous NO APICAL MERISTEM (TaNAM) gene. The presence of this RNAi transgene causes a 40% r...

The fungus Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici (PST) is the causal pathogen of stripe rust in wheat. New highly virulent PST races appeared at the beginning of this century and spread rapidly causing significant yield losses in wheat production worldwide. Race PST-08/21 was isolated in the UK in 2008...

TaGPC1 and TaGPC2 are NAC-domain transcription factors which accelerate the onset of senescence and facilitate nutrient translocation in wheat. We developed knockout mutants of these genes in tetraploid wheat and used RNA-seq to identify the effect of these mutations on the wheat flag leaf transcrip...
