Grain yield and grain protein percentage of common wheat lines with wild emmer chromosome-arm substitutions

Résumé

Wild emmer wheat, Triticum turgidum subsp. dicoccoides, (2n = 49x = 28; genome BBAA), the progenitor of domesticated wheat, is genetically closely related to durum and common wheat. This wild taxon has characteristics that would be valuable if transferred to domesticated wheat. A series of chromosome-arm substitution lines (CASLs) of wild emmer wheat were produced in the background of an Israeli common wheat cultivar. These CASLs were evaluated in a pot experiment and in field trials in Israel and California for their grain yield (GY) and its components and for grain protein percentage. In addition, the extent of genetic interactions (epistatic effects) between "wild" and "domesticated" alleles, within and between homoeologous groups 1 and 7 as expressed in grain and protein yields and other quantitative traits, were determined. The research has shown that wild emmer wheat harbors genetic variability for quantitative traits and that the "wild" genes interact among themselves in a non-additive way in the common genetic background. Several chromosome arms improve GY and protein percentage in common wheat, but their effects will be presumably enhanced when combination of genes from several "wild" arms are integrated into a single "domesticated" genotype. Hence, the interaction between these genes and those in the recipient common wheat must be accounted for when higher yield or protein content is desired. The results of this study indicate on the potential of this material for breeding and genetic analysis, and support the idea of pyramiding genes from a wild species.
