摘要
The difference in accumulation of high molecular weight glutenin subunits （HMW-GS） in superior and inferior grains results in the non-uniformity of grain quality in winter wheat （Triticum aestivum L.）. The HMW-GS accumulation and glutenin macropolymer （GMP） content were studied in superior and inferior grains during the grain filling period, using the sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis （SDS-PAGE）. Compared to inferior grains, HMW-GS was formed earlier and total accumulation amount was higher in superior grains. The total HMW-GS content was higher in superior grain than that in inferior grain except at maturity. For individual HMW-GS types, the accumulation and content of subunit 7 were the highest, followed by subunit 12, while that of subunit 8 were the lowest, followed by subunit 2 in superior grain. In contrary, the accumulation and content of subunit 7 at maturity were significantly higher than subunit 8, but they were similar between subunit 2 and subunit 12 in inferior grain. Moreover, the accumulation of subunit 7 and 12 in superior grain were significantly higher than that in inferior grain. However, compared to the inferior grain, the GMP accumulation was higher, while content was lower in superior grain at maturity.
