1. A method for breeding a wheat plant (Plant A) comprising high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) 1 and 5+10 with a wheat plant (Plant B) comprising HMW-GS 1 and 7+8, the method comprising the following steps:
A) hybridizing the Plant A with the Plant B to obtain F0 hybrid grains;
B) hand sowing the F0 hybrid grains to obtain an F1 single-row population;
C) selecting an F1 wheat plant in which yield per plant is greater than that of wheat plant Jinan 17 or greater than or equal to that of wheat plant Jimai 22, or is 5% or less lower than that of wheat plant Jimai 22;
D) collecting seeds from the selected F1 plant;
E) choosing seeds larger than 8-mesh sieve;
F) plot sowing said seeds to obtain an F2 plot population;
G) selecting an F2 plant from the F2 plot population that meets the following criteria i) to iii):
i) said F2 plant has a stripe rust grade of less than 4 and a winter freezing injury grade of less than 4;
ii) said F2 plant has a yield greater than that of the Jinan 17 or greater than or equal to that of the Jimai 22, or 5% or less lower than that of wheat plant Jimai 22; and
iii) said F2 plant has a thousand grain weight (TGW) of greater than or equal to 35 g;
H) hand sowing seeds of the selected F2 plant in the selected F2 plant to obtain an F3 population;
I) selecting an F3 plant from the F3 population that meets the following criteria i) to iii):
i) said F3 plant comprises HMW-GS glutenin subunits 1, 7+8 and 5+10;
ii) said F3 plant comprises no less than 5 tiller-earing, stick or square ears, flag leaves raised, a powdery mildew grade of less than 4, a stripe rust grade of less than 4, and a plant height of 70-85 cm; and
iii) the protein content of said F3 plant's grains is greater than or equal to 13% of the F3 plant's grain;
J) hand sowing seeds of the selected F3 plant to obtain an F4 plant-to-row population;
K) selecting an F4 plant from the F4 plant-to-row population that meets the following criteria i) to v):
i) said F4 plant has a winter freezing injury of less than or equal to grade 3;
ii) said F4 plant has a powdery mildew grade and a stripe rust grade of less than 4;
iii) said F4 plant has a plant height of 75-80 cm; iv) said F4 plant has a TGW of greater than or equal to 38 g; and
v) said F4 plant has a peak time of mixograph not less than 2 minutes;
L) hand sowing seeds of the selected F4 plant to obtain an F5 plant-to-row population; or plot sowing seeds of the selected F4 plant to obtain an F5 plot population; and
M) selecting an F5 plant from either the F5 plot population or the F5 plant-to-row population following criteria i) to ii):
i) selecting an F5 plant from the F5 plot population that meets the following selection criteria (1) to (3): (1) said F5 plant has a winter freezing injury grade of less than or equal to 3, a number of ears per plot of about 600 m2 greater than that of the Jinan 17 or equal to that of the Jimai 22, and a lodging grade of less than or equal to 2; (2) flour of said F5 plant has a dough stability time of not less than 8 minutes, and is scored at least eighty (80) percentile in sensory evaluations; and (3) said F5 plant has a plot yield greater than that of the Jinan 17 or greater than or equal to that of the Jimai 22, or less than 5% lower than the Jimai 22; or
ii) selecting an F5 plant from the F5 plant-to-row population that meets the following selection criteria (1) to (2): (1) said F5 plant has a yield greater than that of the Jinan 17 or greater than or equal to that of the Jimai 22, or less than 5% lower than that of the Jimai 22; and (2) said F5 plant comprises HMW-GS 1, 7+8 and 5+10;
wherein the Plant A is Ji954072 and the Plant B is Jinan 17 or Jimai 19.
