Abstract:

Vernalization is a unique and necessary physiological stage in the growth and development of winter wheat,which determines the ecological adaptability and yield of winter wheat.This paper briefly summarizes the production and application value of vernalization of winter wheat.By summarizing and analyzing the structure and function of the key genes TaVRN1,TaVRN2 and TaVRN3 in wheat vernalization and their regulatory networks,it is believed that the study of epigenetic regulation of TaVRN1 is the core work of wheat vernalization mechanism analysis.Combined with the existing research on the expression regulation of TaVRN1,the causes of the difference in vernalization demand of wheat,the mechanism of long-term low temperature perception in winter,the research progress of overwintering memory and overwintering memory reset after vernalization,and the effect of vernalization on the regulation of cold tolerance,spikelet development,tillering and other agronomic traits of wheat were mainly introduced.In addition,this study summarizes the unsolved scientific problems in vernalization,and discusses the future research direction of wheat vernalization,which provides reference suggestions for the research of high yield and rapid breeding of wheat.

Key words: Wheat, Vernalization, Epigenetic modification, Spikelet development, Cold resistance, Tillering
