Description

Aljabri, El-Soda and their co-authors mapped the genes behind mineral build-up in wheat grain in 2024. They grew 200 spring wheat lines from a mapping panel in the field and measured nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in the grain.

The lines varied widely in mineral content. Most minerals rose together, while magnesium moved against nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. The scan found 148 significant genetic markers, with the strongest ones for nitrogen on chromosomes 1A, 1B and 1D. High-yield lines held moderate mineral levels. The results point breeders toward grain that is both productive and more nutritious.
