Publication in “The Plant Journal” explains grain filling process in wheat

02.09.2021

The recent research published by Shuang Zhang, Palak Chaturvedi and Wolfram Weckwerth highlights the astonishing molecular complexity of the grain filling process using the multiomics approach.

In this analysis, we have integrated the proteome and metabolome at four sequential developmental stages of the grain, i.e., 12, 15, 20, and 26 DAA, in the seed coat, embryo, endosperm, and cavity fluid.

Significant quantitative changes of protein abundance and, based on the appearance of unique proteins in the compartments, spatially defined proteome changes in the seed tissues during the four stages of grain development.

The temporal and spatial dynamics of the proteome were accompanied by significant changes in the metabolome.
