Genetic impact of Rht dwarfing genes on grain micronutrients concentration in wheat
Wheat is a major staple food crop providing about 20% of dietary energy and proteins, and food products made of whole grain wheat are a major source of micronutrients like Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), Magnesium (Mg), Vitamin B and E. Wheat provides about 40% intake of essential micronutrients by humans in the developing countries relying on wheat based diets. Varieties with genetically...
متن کاملVariation in grain Zn concentration, and the grain ionome, in field-grown Indian wheat
Wheat is an important dietary source of zinc (Zn) and other mineral elements in many countries. Dietary Zn deficiency is widespread, especially in developing countries, and breeding (genetic biofortification) through the HarvestPlus programme has recently started to deliver new wheat varieties to help alleviate this problem in South Asia. To better understand the potential of wheat to alleviate...

donor of the A genome of P. pratense, perhaps after tetraploidization to P. commutatum, while the diploid Cultivated timothy (Phleum pratense L.) is an important grass for P. bertolonii (turf timothy) is the most likely donor of hay production in temperate North America. It is under utilized in the B genome of P. pratense (Cai and Bullen, 1991; management-intensive rotational grazing systems be...
متن کاملImpact of Wheat Grain Selenium Content Variation
Cereal Chem. 88(2):195–200 Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient in animals. High levels of Se can accumulate in wheat grain, but it is not clear how high Se affects milling or baking. Low and high Se grain from the same hard red winter wheat cultivar was milled and used for breadbaking studies and Se analysis. Mill stream yields from the low and high Se wheat were comparable, as were flo...
متن کاملOrganic Wheat Farming Improves Grain Zinc Concentration
Zinc (Zn) nutrition is of key relevance in India, as a large fraction of the population suffers from Zn malnutrition and many soils contain little plant available Zn. In this study we compared organic and conventional wheat cropping systems with respect to DTPA (diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid)-extractable Zn as a proxy for plant available Zn, yield, and grain Zn concentration. We analyzed...
