Suitability of grain wheat spelt winter for baking and feeding purposes

Effect of urea foliar feeding on grain protein content and quality in two winter wheat cultivars

Stability and predictability of baking quality of winter wheat

Baking quality of 11 winter wheat varieties was studied at the Jõgeva Plant Breeding Institute during 5 years (2005–2009). Protein content, farinograph absorption, dough stability time and loaf volume were examined in this study. The varieties were divided into clusters according to the average value of quality characteristics and coefficient of variation. Ada, Tarso, Portal, Ramiro had high pr...

Predicting Grain Protein Content of Winter Wheat

The objective of this paper is to propose to use a new Improved Particle Filtering (IPF) based on minimizing Kullback-Leibler divergence for crop models' predictions. The performances of the method are compared with those of the conventional Particle Filtering (PF) at a complex crop model (AZODYN) to predict an important winter-wheat quality criterion, namely the grain protein content. Furtherm...

Clustering of Environments of Southern Soft Red Winter Wheat Region for Milling and Baking Quality Attributes.

Division of regional nursery test sites into homogenous subregions contributes to more efficient evaluation and better differentiation of cultivars. Data from the Uniform Southern Soft Red Winter Wheat Nursery (USSRWWN) were analyzed to group testing sites into relatively homogenous subregions for milling and baking quality (MBQ) attributes. Environmental effects due to years accounted for over...

Coating seeds with endophytic fungi enhances growth, nutrient uptake, yield and grain quality of winter wheat

The aim of this study was to assess whether seed coating with microbialconsortium based on the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus intraradicesBEG72, Glomus mossae and Trichoderma atroviride MUCL 45632 could improveseedling establishment, yield and grain quality (protein content and mineralcomposition) of wheat (Triticum durum Desf.). As a first step, a laboratoryexperiment was conducted ...
