| Abstract | One of the main limitations of cereal breeding is the lack of genetic variability within cultivated crops. Hordeum chilense is a wild relative of Hordeum vulgare, which has been successfully used in the synthesis of amphiploids by crossing with Triticum spp. Among the agronomic traits of these new amphiploids, the allelic variation in the endosperm storage proteins and their influence on breadmaking and malting quality are of special interest. B-hordeins are sulfur rich prolamins, which account for 70–80% of the total hordein fraction in barley. In this work, rapid amplification of cDNA ends by PCR (RACE-PCR) has been used for the cloning of the full-length open reading frame (ORF) of six sequences of B3-hordeins from two lines of H. chilense. Two consensus sequences of 813 and 822 bp for the H1 and H7 lines, respectively, were determined by alignment of all the sequences generated. Between both lines, differences involving single base changes, which could correspond to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), insertions and deletions were observed. Of these differences, only six out of the 13 within the ORF caused a change of amino acid. Two insertions/deletions of 9 and 12 bp were also observed between both lines. The derived amino acid sequences showed a similar structure to the B-hordeins from cultivated barley and other prolamins. The repetitive region is based on the repetition of the motif PQQPFPQQ. The copy number of the B3-hordeins was estimated as a minimum of nine and five copies for the H1 and H7 lines, respectively. The expression profile of the B-hordeins through the developing endosperm is also described in this work. This study of the storage proteins of H. chilense is a useful contribution to the knowledge of the genetic diversity available in wild relatives of cultivated barley. In addition, the origin of the different prolamins can be better understood with an in-depth knowledge of its wild equivalent. |

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.
