Comparative Proteomic Insights into Leaf Senescence and Metabolic Regulation in Three High-Gluten Wheat Varieties
A comparative proteomic analysis of the wheat cultivar Xinmai 45 and its parental lines, Jimai 20 and Xinmai 26, showed that the MAPK signaling and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathways were uniquely enriched in Xinmai 45 vs. Jimai 20 (paternal), suggesting enhanced stress signaling and defense priming.
