To characterize and compare the protein quality of ten durum wheat genotypes grown under three cropping modalities in Algeria (subhumid Algiers, subhumid-semiarid Constantine, semiarid Sétif), profile their kernels was performed by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (SE-HPLC RP-HPLC). The “variety” factor has a major impact, mainly on insoluble fraction (Fi), gliadin/glutenin ratio, large s...

in this study, 120 accessions of aegilops crassa collected from various geographical areas of iran were analyzed with respect to genome size and protein markers. a flow cytometry survey of these accessions revealed that one hundred and thirteen of the accessions were tetraploid and seven were hexaploid. moreover, these accessions revealed variations in high molecular weight glutenin subunit com...

The protein content and its type are principal factors affecting wheat (Triticum aestivum) end product quality. Among the wheat proteins, glutenin proteins, especially, high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) are major determinants of processing quality. Wheat and its primary gene pool have limited variation in terms of HMW-GS alleles. Wild relatives of wheat are an important source of...

With 300 Gy of [(60)Co] γ-ray radiation of dry wheat seeds of Vortex 9722, the protein content, wet gluten content, sedimentation value, and hardness variation were analyzed in 341 lines in M4. Using over population mean ± 2X standard deviation as the screening standard, 8 lines with higher protein and wet gluten content and 4 lines with lower protein and wet gluten content were selected. In th...

The concentration and composition of the gliadin and glutenin seed storage proteins (SSPs) in wheat flour are the most important determinants of its end-use value. In cereals, the synthesis of SSPs is predominantly regulated at the transcriptional level by a complex network involving at least five cis-elements in gene promoters. The high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) are encoded b...

High molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) play an essential role in wheat processing quality. In this study, we evaluated the genetic pattern with HMW-GS composition between generations and examined whether agronomic and quality traits were correlated with each other. A wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar with high protein content and 2 cultivars with low protein content were subjected...

Wheat has been cultivated for 10000 years and ever since the origin of hexaploid wheat it has been exempt from natural selection. Instead, it was under the constant selective pressure of human agriculture from harvest to sowing during every year, producing a vast array of varieties. Wheat has been adopted globally, accumulating variation for genes involved in yield traits, environmental adaptat...

High-molecular weight (HMW (glutenin subunits are encoded by the Glu-1 loci (Glu-A1, Glu-B1 and <sp...

Wheat is the most essential food crop and taxonomically belongs to family poaceae. Bread wheat is a Hexapliod species with 2n=6x=42 chromosomes having high genetic diversity, the genetic variation enables plant species to adapt to changing environments and provide resistance against different diseases. The scientists are highly interested to study the genetic diversity among wheat varieties mor...
