[Evolution of partial promoter region of HMW glutenin genes from E and E1 genome of Agropyron elongatum].
The partial promoter regions of HMW glutenin subunit genes were cloned form the genomes E (in diploid Agropyron elongatum) and E1 (in tetraploid Agropyron elongatum) by PCR approach. There was only one nucleotide acid difference in the promoter sequences of x-type subunits between the two genomes; moreover, the promoter sequences of the two y-type subunits were completely identical. Although these promoter regions were very similar to each other, differences still existed in sequence size and the kind of nucleotide acid between the x-type and y-type subunits. It was speculated that the E1 genome in tetraploid Agropyron elongatum was probably originated from E genome in diploid species. The comparisons of these subunits with some of those from A, B, D and G genome of Triticeae demonstrated that the sequences of their partial promoter regions were conserved and shared a high homology more than 90%. The phylogenetic analysis based on the sequences in this region indicated that the y-type HMW glutenin subunits of Agropyron elongatum species were different from other subunits, whereas the x-type subunits of them were most closely related to that from the B genome.
