Abstract: In recent years, wheat genetic transformation has been greatly developed and become an effective complementation for traditional breeding in China. The application of major transgenic methods and researching progresses in wheat molecular breeding are discussed, which include studies on diseases and insects resistance, quality improving, abiotic stresses tolerance and some other aspects in wheat molecular breeding. In addition, the problems and prospect of wheat transgenic breeding were discussed.
