Linkage map of prolamin loci Gli‐D4 and Gli‐D5 in hexaploid wheat

By electrophoretic analysis of F2 progenies from crosses among the hexaploid wheat varieties ‘Cajeme 71’, ‘Ablaca’, ‘Anza’ and ‘Pané 247’, two new prolamin loci Gli‐D4 and Gli‐D5 , were mapped on the short arm of chromosome ID. The Gli‐D4 locus controls gliadins of type γ and is situated on the short arm of chromosome ID between the centromere and the Gli‐D1 locus with a genetic distance of 10.1±2.4 cM from this locus. The Gli‐D5 locus controls gliadin type ω and was mapped 3.7 ± 0.8 cM from Gli‐Dl and located between Gli‐Dl and the telomere.
