An important objective in wheat breeding is the development of cultivars with reduced allergenicity and enhanced bread-making quality. In this study, we conducted molecular marker analysis using 1,780 F10 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between the hypo-allergenic cultivar Ofree and the Korean bread wheat cultivar Keumgang, and assessed the genotypes associated with ω-5 gliadin, α-gliadin epitopes, bread-making quality, grain hardness, total gliadin content, and the glutenin/gliadin ratio. A Gli-B1 deletion-based ω-5 gliadin-deficient genotype was detected in 18% of the population, whereas no lines lacking Gli-D1-derived ω-5 gliadin or α-gliadin epitopes were identified. The AX-108761918 marker was found to have segregated into TT and GG genotypes at frequencies of 48% and 52%, respectively. Eleven lines carrying favorable combinations of Glu-D1d, Pinb-D1b, and TaIAA10-6D Hap II were selected as promising bread wheat candidates, and a further nine lines combining the Gli-B1 deletion with Glu-D1d and Pinb-D1b were identified as candidates with both reduced-allergenicity and enhanced bread-making quality genotypes. SDS-PAGE analysis confirmed patterns of storage proteins consistent with the results obtained for marker genotyping. These selected lines may provide valuable breeding material for the development hypo-allergenic wheat cultivars with enhanced bread-making quality in Korea.

A comprehensive evaluation of 515 Korean wheat germplasms, including cultivars, experimental lines, and landraces, was conducted over 2 years under upland field conditions to characterize major agronomic and grain traits. Allelic variation at 13 key functional loci was assessed using Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) and PCR-based markers. The winter-type vrn-A1 with a single copy (CNV=1; 40.2%) advanced heading by approximately 5 days compared to multiple-copy genotypes, and winter-type vrn-B1 (88.5%) advanced heading by 2 days compared to the spring-type. The photoperiod-insensitive alleles Ppd-B1a (5.6%) and Ppd-D1a (76.3%) advanced heading by 3 and 4 days, respectively, with a combined effect of up to 6 days. Semi-dwarfing alleles Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b showed reduced culm lengths of 2.1 cm and 4.7 cm, respectively, and the Rht-B1a/Rht-D1b genotype was 6 cm shorter than Rht-B1a/Rht-D1a. The Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1a genotype had the lowest kernel hardness value (32.2), whereas Pina-D1b/Pinb-D1a had the highest (60.5). The thousand kernel weight ranged from 36.1 mg to 42.5 mg depending on the allelic combinations of TaCwi-A1, TaGW2-6A, and TaSus2-2B. Cultivars and experimental lines were clearly distinguished from landraces based on phenotype-based clustering, with the majority of cultivars (81.6%) and experimental lines (68.3%) grouped into cluster III. In contrast, landraces were predominantly distributed in clusters I (55.1%) and II (29.2%). Random forest analysis identified four genes, Ppd-D1, Pina-D1, Pinb-D1, and WAPO-A1, as major contributors to cluster classification. Cluster III was highly enriched with alleles favorable for earliness (Ppd-D1a, 98.3%) and grain hardness (Pina-D1b and Pinb-D1b, 57.9%). WAPO-A1b, an allele associated with an increased spikelet number per spike, was more frequently observed in clusters I (94.6%) and II (79.1%) than in cluster III (58.4%).
