A simple, nondestructive PCR-based screening method has been developed for identifying putative transgenic soft white winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) carrying the coat protein gene of wheat streak mosaic virus. Removal of the endosperm end of individual seed provided sufficient material for DNA extraction and PCR. DNA from seed is more free of the secondary, metabolites found in leaf tissue...

After a presentation of the complexity to apply the fuzzy logic on industrial systems, we present the issues involved in the application of the fuzzy logic particularly the way to approach a control or classification problem. In order to deal with these issues, we present a case study of a grading system of cereals that allows us to determine the price of transactions of cereals (Durum wheat, S...

Starch is the primary nutrient in ruminant diets used to promote high levels of performance. The site of starch digestion alters the nature of digestive end products (VFA in the rumen vs. glucose in the small intestine) and the efficiency of use. Cereal grain endosperm texture plays a major role in the rate and extent of starch degradation in ruminants. Wheat grain texture is regulated by the s...

INTRODUCTION: Head scab caused by Fusarium graminaerum (Schwabe) has caused significant losses in the soft red winter wheat crop in Kentucky and in small grain crops in many regions of North America. Damage from head scab results in reductions in seed quality, emergence, and yield of wheat. In addition, losses in food-grain quality are caused by production of fungal mycotoxins, specifically vom...

Effects of dietary fiber on bile acid excretion and fecal bile acid concentration have been studied for seven subjects fed 26 g of either soft white wheat bran, corn bran, soybean hulls, or hard red spring wheat bran. Results indicate that even in a controlled study using a metabolic word, individual subject variation has a major impact on fecal bile acid excretion. This observation has not bee...

A genotype was synthesized method intraspecific hybridization continuous, purposeful selection from crossing Lidiya Zustrich varieties. average grain yield over years (2019-2021) 9.43 t/ha. excess standard Grom h...

grain hardness is one of the most important quality characteristics of cultivated bread wheat (triticum aestivum l.) that has main effect on milling yield, particle size, and water absorption of wheat flour. kernel hardness is mainly controlled by ha locus on the short arm of chromosome 5d in bread wheat. in this study, we have employed a multifaceted approach to investigate aspects of grain ha...

The contribution of calories from nutrient-poor snack foods is rising in many Western diets, possibly contributing to the increasing prevalence of obesity and diabetes. Soy offers unique potential to provide high quality protein, dietary fiber, and phytochemicals to snack foods to produce a more healthful nutritional profile. In this study, 27.3% of wheat flour was replaced with soy ingredients...
