| Abstract | This research provided the first view of metabolic and physiological effect of a tissue-specific glaucousness inhibitor in wheat and laid foundation for map-based cloning of the Iw3 locus. Cuticular wax constitutes the outermost layer of plant skin, and its composition greatly impacts plant appearance and plant–environment interaction. Epicuticular wax in the upper part of adult wheat plants can form the glaucousness, which is associated with drought tolerance. In this research, we characterized a glume-specific glaucousness inhibitor, Iw3, by fine mapping, physiological, and molecular approaches. Iw3 inhibits glaucousness formation by altering wax composition. Compared to the wild type, Iw3 eliminated β-diketone, reduced 47 % primary alcohols, but increased aldehyde 400-fold and alkanes fivefold, which led to 30 % reduction of total glume wax load. Loss of the glaucousness increased cuticle permeability, suggesting an important role in drought sensitivity. Genetically, the glaucousness-inhibiting effect by Iw3 is partially dominant in a dosage-dependent manner. We localized the Iw3 locus within a 0.13-cM interval delimited by marker loci Xpsp3000 and XWL3096. Of the 53 wax genes assayed, we detected transcription changes in nine genes by Iw3, downregulation of Cer4-1 and upregulation of other five Cer4 and three KCS homologs. All these results provided initial insights into Iw3-mediated regulation of wax metabolism and paved way for in-depth characterization of the Iw3 locus and the glaucousness-related β-diketone pathway. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
