Abstract: Using the molecular genetics information from model crops as the foundation of the complicated organism genomes is the regular method for modern molecular genetics. We have introduced the developments of the seed sprouting of some model organism, such as arabidopsis, maize and rice. We also summarized the molecular genetic researches of pre-harvest sprouting for wheat. And then we analyzed that it is feasible to use ABI3 gene from arabidopsis and Vp-1 gene from maize as the candidate genes of pre-harvest sprouting in wheat using method of comparative molecular genetics. This analysis was based on the colinearity of the genomes between wheat and some model organisms.
