Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of novel wx genes from Psathyrostachys juncea and Eremopyrum bonaepartis. - Genetika, Vol 55, No.1, 141-158. The ratio of amylose/amylopectin can greatly influence the end-use quality of wheat products, and amylose synthesis only needs the granule-bound starch synthase I that is encoded by the Waxy (Wx) gene. Hence, the Wx allele variability is a vital determinant of amylose synthesis. In this study, four novel Wx genes were isolated from two diploid Triticeae species. Their sequence variations were analyzed, which showed that the polymorphism among the Wx-F1 alleles was low; only seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and one amino acid (AA) residue change ( Arg541. Cys) were detected in the exon regions, and this change in Wx-F1b was predicted to have deleterious effects on protein function. The two Wx-Ns1 alleles in this study were different from two published alleles obtained using three overlapping primer sets. The polymorphism among the four Wx-Ns1 alleles was high, and 37 SNPs and ten AA residue changes were found, while all of those substitutions were neutral. However, one substitution (Leu237. Pro)between Wx-H1 and Wx-Ns1 was predicted that would probably affect the protein function. Divergence time analysis showed that Wx-Ns1a diverged from Wx-Ns1b about 1.06 MYAs. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that Wx-F1 were more closely related to WxO1 from Henrardia persica, Wx-R1 from Secale cereale ssp. cereale, and Wx-Xe1 from Eremopyrum triticeum, while Wx- Ns1 were more closely related to Wx-H1 from Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare and Wx-Hch1 from Hordeum chilense. These genes may be important candidates for wheat quality improvement.
