Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) spike architecture is an important agronomic trait. The Q gene plays a key role in the domestication of bread wheat spike architecture. However, the regulatory mechanisms of Q expression and transcriptional activity remain largely unknown. In this study, we show that overexpression of bread wheat tae-miR172 caused a speltoid-like spike phenotype, reminiscent of t...

The spontaneous translocation of the short arm of chromosome 1 of rye (1RS) in bread wheat is associated with higher root biomass and grain yield. Recent studies have confirmed the presence of QTL for different root morphological traits on the 1RS arm in bread wheat. This study was conducted to address two questions in wheat root genetics. First, does the presence of the 1RS arm in bread wheat ...

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 62(5): 945–952. Development of new bread wheat cultivars needs effi cient tools to monitor trait association in a breeding program. This investigation was aimed to charact...

Wheat is one of the most important food plants grown in over 45 countries, feeding 35-40% world's population. The main utility manufacturing bread and various products made from flour.

 Through this study, it was followed how differe...

BACKGROUND Many children do not eat enough whole grains, which may have negative health consequences. Intervention research is increasingly focusing on nudging as a way to influence food choices by affecting unconscious behavioural processes. The aim of this field study was to examine whether the shape of bread rolls is able to shift children's bread choices from white to whole wheat during bre...

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) acts as first line of defense against oxidative and genetic stress. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), found in mitochondria or peroxisomes, contains Mn(III) at the active site. Therefore, it is of interest to study MnSOD from bread wheat (a grain crop). However, a structure model is not yet solved for bread wheat MnSOD. Hence, we describe the structure model of ...

Ameliorative effect of exogenously applied glycinebetaine (GB) on photosynthetic capacity of two wheat cultivars differing in salt tolerance grown under salt stress was assessed. Plants were grown under field conditions at 2.84, 15 dS/m in split-split plot design. Different levels of GB (no spray NS, 0.1% Tween 20 solution, 50 and 100 mM GB in 0.1% Tween 20 solution) were exogenously applied as...

Dehydrated uncooked potato (Irish and sweet) flour was blended by weight with commercial wheat flour at 0 to 10% levels of substitution to make bread. Comparative study of the microbial and nutritional qualities of the bread was undertaken. The total aerobic bacterial counts ranged from 3.0 × 10(5) cfu/g to 1.09 × 10(6) cfu/g while the fungal counts ranged from 8.0 × 10(1) cfu/g to 1.20 × 10(3)...
