“…The application of molecular markers was successful in the study of wheat genes controlling such traits as 1,000-grain weight, protein and gluten content (Zhang et al, 2018), grain hardness (Nirmal et al, 2016), flour production from grain milling (Nirmal et al, 2017), and bread quality (Henry, Furtado & Rangan, 2018). Genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 technology represents a novel method in plants (Khlestkina & Shumny, 2016; Liang et al, 2018; Borisjuk et al, 2019), for production of wheat with low gluten content (Sánchez-León et al, 2018), as required by people allergic to some components of gliadin in traditional wheat cultivars (Palosuo et al, 2001; Pastorello et al, 2007).…”
