Wheat pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) reduces yield and grain quality and occurs in almost every wheat-growing region around the world (Vetch et al., 2019). In general, red-grained wheat varieties are more tolerant to PHS than white-grained varieties (Himi et al., 2011). Moreover, the red pigment of the grain coat contains proanthocyanidins, whose antioxidant activity and free radical scavenging ability have health-promoting properties. Therefore, producing elite red wheat varieties is an important objective in breeding high-yield and high-quality wheat. R2R3-MYB is one of the largest families of transcription factors in plants, which play crucial roles in regulating plant development, metabolism, and stress responses. The R2R3-MYB transcription factor Tamyb10 of hexaploid wheat activates flavonoid biosynthesis genes to specify red grain colour and influences PHS (Himi et al., 2011). In most white wheat varieties, the Tamyb10-A1a, Tamyb10-B1a, and Tamyb10-D1a genes have large insertions or deletions, which disrupt the IRTKAL/IRC motif and regulatory function (Himi et al., 2011). Among the Tamyb10 genes, the Tamyb10-B1a allele has a 19-bp deletion in nearly 88.6% of bread wheat lines; this deletion causes a frameshift in the open-reading frame and disrupts the resulting protein (Dong et al., 2015; Himi et al., 2011). Given that CRISPR/Cas9-induced mutations are typically+ 1/À1-bp indels at the specific target sites (Zhang et al., 2014, 2016), we can revert the frameshift mutations within the Tamyb10-B1a allele (caused by a 19-bp deletion) to in-frame mutations (18-bp or other multiples of three bases). Here, we first sequenced the Tamyb10-B1a locus in the spring wheat cultivar Fielder and confirmed the 19-bp deletion in the third exon of Tamyb10-B1a in this white wheat variety (Figure 1a; Figure S1). To restore functionality of the Tamyb10-B1a allele, a single gRNA was designed to target the sequences flanking the 19-bp deletion site (Figure 1a; Appendix S1). Then, the pWMB110-SpCas9-sgRNA was constructed and transformed into Fielder via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation (Wang et al., 2022). Fifteen putative transgenic plants were produced, from which five Tamyb10-B1a-edited plants were selected (Figure 1b). Among the T0 edited lines, four plants with a 1-bp insertion upstream of the 19-bp deletion site were identified. These 1-bp insertions restored the reading frame by converting the frameshift mutation in the Tamyb10-B1a allele (19-bp deletion) to in-frame mutation (18-bp deletion; Figure 1b). Furthermore, no mutation events were found across all potential off-target sites (Table S1).To investigate whether the target mutations observed were heritable, we tracked the inheritance of in-frame Tamyb10-B1a variants (NF243-3, NF243-12, and NF243-15). The CRISPR/Cas9-induced mutations in the T0 plants were stably transmitted to the T1 generation without the occurrence of new mutations (Figure 1c; Table S2). Sequence alignment analysis showed that, compared with the wild-type Tamyb10-B1b protein, the protein sequences of the in-frame Tamyb10-B1a variants carried a minor deletion of six amino acids, thereby restoring the intact IRTKAL/IRC motif (Figure 1d; Figure S2). Homozygous mutants with the in-frame Tamyb10-B1a sequence were selected to investigate grain pericarp and PHS resistance phenotypes. As expected, the coloration of the grains harvested from T1 lines harbouring the in-frame Tamyb10-B1a variants changed from white to red (Figure 1e). The accumulation of anthocyanins in these lines was assessed using a spectral imaging chamber. Compared with the wild-type Fielder seeds, the in-frame Tamyb10 …
