The role of phytic Acid in the wheat grain.
نویسنده
چکیده
The concentrations of adenosine triphosphate and phytic acid in testa, embryo plus scutellum, aleurone, and endosperm fractions from grain of Triticum vulgare cv. Insignia have been determined during development under both normal conditions and those of water stress. Phytic acid was not detected in the endosperm. In the embryo plus scutellum and aleurone fractions there was a rapid build-up of phytic acid, but the adenosine triphosphate level did not change markedly at this time. These results are not consistent with physiological roles previously suggested for phytic acid other than the role of phytin as a phosphorus and cation store for the germinating seed.

Effect of Different Lactic Acid Bacteria on Phytic Acid Content and Quality of Whole Wheat Toast Bread
ABSTRACT: Nowadays, consumption of whole flours and flours with high extraction rate is recommended, because of their large amount of fiber, vitamins and minerals. Despite nutritional benefits of whole flours, concentration of some undesirable components such as phytic acid is higher than white flour. In this study, the effect of several sourdough lactic acid bacteria on toast bread was investi...
متن کاملBiofortification of Wheat Cultivars to Combat Zinc Deficiency
Zinc (Zn) deficiency caused by inadequate dietary intake is a global nutritional problem, particularly in developing countries. Therefore, zinc biofortification of wheat and other cereal crops is being urgently addressed and highly prioritized as a research topic. A field study was planned to evaluate the influence of zinc application on grain yield, grain zinc content, and grain phytic acid co...
متن کاملبررسی میزان اسید فیتیک در آرد، خمیر و نان سنگک و لواش ماشینی
Consumption of bread made from flours with high extraction rates is fairly common in western countries and has recently become widespread in Iran. Such breads contain relatively high levels of phytic acid. Phytic acid is present in the aleurone layer of wheat in the form of potassium-magnesium salts. It is carried over to wheat flour and to bread. Phytic acid is known to have chelating properti...

متن کاملSilencing of ABCC13 transporter in wheat reveals its involvement in grain development, phytic acid accumulation and lateral root formation
Low phytic acid is a trait desired in cereal crops and can be achieved by manipulating the genes involved either in its biosynthesis or its transport in the vacuoles. Previously, we have demonstrated that the wheat TaABCC13 protein is a functional transporter, primarily involved in heavy metal tolerance, and a probable candidate gene to achieve low phytate wheat. In the current study, RNA silen...
