A high soluble-fibre allele in wheat encodes a defective cell wall peroxidase responsible for dimerization of ferulate moieties on arabinoxylan

R. A. C. Mitchell, M. Oszvald, T. K. Pellny, J. Freeman, K. Halsey, C. A. Sparks, A. K. Huttly, S. Specel, M. Leverington-Waite, S. Griffiths, P. R. Shewry, A. Lovegrove

This study identifies a wheat peroxidase variant that reduces ferulate dimerization in arabinoxylan, increasing soluble dietary fibre content.

Efficient CRISPR/Cas-mediated Targeted Mutagenesis in Spring and Winter Wheat Varieties

F. Hahn, L. Sanjurjo Loures, C. A. Sparks, K. Kanyuka, V. Nekrasov

This study successfully applies CRISPR/Cas-mediated mutagenesis to target genes in both spring and winter wheat varieties, demonstrating effective genome editing in winter wheat which is typically harder to transform.
