In Accepted after revision 12 June 2010 kernels of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), transcripts for Available online 23 August 2010 cytosolic (Ta.AGP.S1a) and plastidial (Ta.AGP.S1b) small subunits of AGPase were encoded by the same gene (Ta.AGP.S.1) by use of the alternative first exons. In this study, a cDNA Keywords: sequence (1631 bp) [NCBI: EU586278] encoding a novel Ta.AGP.S1b transcript was isolated Common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in kernels of Chinese common wheat cultivars. Compared with another Ta.AGP.S1b AGPase transcript [NCBI: FJ643609] isolated in kernels of non-Chinese wheat cultivars, EU5862
