文摘The low-molecular-weight glutenin subunits(LMW-GS)account for 40% of gross glutenins of wheat,usually used as a major indicator for wheat quality improvement.Here,I comprehensively reviewed the advances in LMW-GS from their classification,coding gene loci on chromosomes and structural features,polypeptide chains composition,gene sequences accessed in Genbank,molecular markers saturation level,and their impacts on wheat process quality,in order to provide a theoretical basis for the utilization of LMW-GS in genetic improvement of wheat quality.
