BACKGROUND Food sIgG and sIgG4 are highly individually versatile. We put a hypothesis that one of the responsible factors is the presence of gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases. The objectives were: 1. An analysis of wheat and rice sIgG and sIgG4 in healthy children, children with IgE-mediated wheat allergy (WA), coeliac disease (CD) and Helicobacter pylori infection (HP). 2. Usability of wh...

INTRODUCTION The type and amount of concentrate included in beef cattle diets can greatly influence production and profitability. Small grains are typically fed in these rations, but the inclusion of by-product feeds, such as wheat middlings (WM), in growing and finishing diets have recently been studied (Dalke et al., 1997; Blasi et al., 1998). Wheat middlings are the by-product of the wheat m...

Th e objective of this paper was to show diff erences among qualitative parameters of commercially produced Slovak fi ne and wholemeal wheat fl ours prepared from Triticum aestivum L. (common wheat) and Triticum aestivum ssp. spelta L. (spelt wheat). Th e selected chemical parameters (protein, starch, ash, glucose, fructose, sucrose, maltose, pH, lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, succinic ...

OBJECTIVE To assess the prevalence of and explanations for wheat avoidance, including reported symptoms, diagnoses and information sources influencing the decision to avoid wheat, and to investigate potential psychological predictors of this behaviour. DESIGN Cross-sectional population survey. SETTING The study was conducted in Australia, using a nationwide postal omnibus survey. SUBJECTS...

Low temperature during reproductive stage of spring wheat causes sterility of pollen grains and reduced yield. Field experiment was conducted during the winter season in the farm of Indian Agricultural Research Institute with wheat crop to study the effect of temperature on phenology and pollen sterility of spring wheat crop. Lower mean temperature during the crop growth period led to enhanced ...

Globally, wheat is the leading source of vegetable protein in human food, having a higher protein content than other major cereals, maize (corn) or rice. In terms of total production tonnages used for food, India is currently second to wheat as the main human food crop and ahead of maize. Determining the quality of wheat is critical. Specifying the quality of wheat manually requires an expert j...

Triticum mosaic virus (TriMV) (genus Poacevirus, family Potyviridae) is a recently described eriophyid mite-transmitted wheat virus. In vitro RNA transcripts generated from full-length cDNA clones of TriMV proved infectious on wheat. Wheat seedlings inoculated with in vitro transcripts elicited mosaic and mottling symptoms similar to the wild-type virus, and the progeny virus was efficiently tr...

Journal of Plant Registrations, Vol. 3, No. 3, September 2009 269 Grain protein concentration (GPC) has a major impact on the end-use quality of bread products made with fl our extracted from hard wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain; therefore, this trait is typically a high priority in wheat improvement efforts aimed at improving bread-making quality. Due to improved profi t potential compared ...

The distribution of cytokinin activity in wheat (Triticum aestivum) germ tRNA fractionated by BD-cellulose and RPC-5 chromatography has been examined. As in other organisms, the cytokinin moieties in wheat germ tRNA appear to be restricted to tRNA species that would be expected to respond to codons beginning with U. Only a few of the wheat germ tRNA species in this coding group actually contain...

Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is potentially a new source of genes for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) improvement. Wheat-barley chromosome recombinant lines provide a means for introgressing barley genes to wheat genome by chromosome engineering, and since these are expected to occur only rarely in special cytogenetic stocks, an efficient selection skill is necessary to identify them. To convert RF...
