| Abstract | A dominant allele of the vernalization gene Vrn-2 is the wild type conferring winter growth habit, whereas a recessive vrn-2 allele confers spring growth habit. The recessive vrn-2 allele is mutated due to the deletion of the complete gene (a null form) or alternation of a key amino acid in the VRN-2 protein (a nonfunctional form) in diploid wheat or tetraploid wheat. VRN-2 is also denoted ZCCT due to the presence of a zinc finger and a CCT domain in its protein. There are two paralogous ZCCT genes at the VRN-2 locus in diploid Triticum monococcum and three paralogous ZCCT genes on each of the A and B genomes in tetraploid wheat, but little is known about the allelic variation in VRN-2 in hexaploid wheat. In the study reported here, we performed a one-shot PCR to simultaneously amplify the promoter regions of the three ZCCT-1 genes from hexaploid wheat, including the 302-bp fragment from ZCCT-A1, the 294-bp fragment from ZCCT-B1, and the 320-bp fragment from ZCCT-D1. Each amplicon could be differentiated by electrophoresis in an acrylamide/bisacrylamide gel. This PCR marker for different lengths of the three ZCCT-1 genes was used to search for null alleles in hexaploid wheat. A null allele was found in each of ZCCT-A1, ZCCT-B1, and ZCCT-D1 among 74 cultivars and genetic stocks of U.S. hexaploid wheat. Among 54 Chinese wheat cultivars, breeding lines, and landraces, we identified three accessions carrying a single null allele at ZCCT-A1, three accessions carrying a null allele at ZCCT-B1, and one accession carrying a double null allele at both ZCCT-A1 and ZCCT-D1. The potential application of these natural ZCCT-1 mutant materials in wheat breeding programs and studies on the genetics of wheat is discussed. |

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.
