Two point mutations identified in emmer wheat generate null Wx-A1 alleles.

Abstract excerpt

In this report, the Wx-A1 mutations carried by a Triticum dicoccoides line from Israel and a Triticum dicoccum line from Yugoslavia are characterized. A single nucleotide insertion in the T. dicoccoides null allele and a single nucleotide deletion in the T. dicoccum null allele each cause frameshift mutations that induce premature termination codons more than 55 nucleotides upstream of the last exon-exon...
