Here, we produced hexaploid wheat lines with loss of function of homeoalleles of Qsd1, which controls seed dormancy in barley, by Agrobacterium-mediated CRISPR/Cas9. Of the eight transformed wheat events produced, three independent events carrying multiple mutations in wheat Qsd1 homeoalleles were obtained. Notably, one line had mutations in every homeoallele. We crossed this plant with wild-type cultivar Fielder to generate a transgene-free triple-recessive mutant, as revealed by Mendelian segregation. The mutant showed a significantly longer seed dormancy period than wild-type, which may result in reduced pre-harvest sprouting of grains on spikes. PCR, southern blotting, and whole-genome shotgun sequencing revealed that this segregant lacked transgenes in its genomic sequence. This technique serves as a model for trait improvement in wheat, particularly for genetically recessive traits, based on locus information from diploid barley. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=AbeFumitaka en-aut-sei=Abe en-aut-mei=Fumitaka kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=HaqueEmdadul en-aut-sei=Haque en-aut-mei=Emdadul kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=HisanoHiroshi en-aut-sei=Hisano en-aut-mei=Hiroshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanakaTsuyoshi en-aut-sei=Tanaka en-aut-mei=Tsuyoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KamiyaYoko en-aut-sei=Kamiya en-aut-mei=Yoko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=MikamiMasafumi en-aut-sei=Mikami en-aut-mei=Masafumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KawauraKanako en-aut-sei=Kawaura en-aut-mei=Kanako kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=EndoMasaki en-aut-sei=Endo en-aut-mei=Masaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OnishiKazumitsu en-aut-sei=Onishi en-aut-mei=Kazumitsu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=HayashiTakeshi en-aut-sei=Hayashi en-aut-mei=Takeshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=SatoKazuhiro en-aut-sei=Sato en-aut-mei=Kazuhiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Division of Wheat and Barley Research, Institute of Crop Science, NARO kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Division of Wheat and Barley Research, Institute of Crop Science, NARO kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Institute of Plant Science and Resources, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Division of Basic Research, Institute of Crop Science, NARO kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Kihara Institute for Biological Research, Yokohama City University kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Graduate School of Nanobioscience, Yokohama City University kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Kihara Institute for Biological Research, Yokohama City University kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Division of Applied Genetics, Institute of Agrobiological Sciences, NARO kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Agro-Environmental Science, Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Division of Basic Research, Institute of Crop Science, NARO kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Institute of Plant Science and Resources, Okayama University kn-affil= en-keyword=CRISPR/Cas9 kn-keyword=CRISPR/Cas9 en-keyword=Qsd1 kn-keyword=Qsd1 en-keyword=multiple mutation kn-keyword=multiple mutation en-keyword=seed dormancy kn-keyword=seed dormancy en-keyword=wheat kn-keyword=wheat END
