Preharvest sprouting (PHS) of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum (Desf.) Husn.) is an important problem in Japan, where the rainy season overlaps with the harvest season. Since there are few PHS-resistant genetic resources in durum wheat, we introduced an R-gene for red seeds, the MFT gene, and the QPhs-5AL QTL, all of which are associated with PHS resistance, into durum wheat from a PHS...

to enhance germplasms of bread wheat, a gene, encoding the smallest y-type high molecular weight glutenin subunit (hmw gs) gene (12.4t) from the d-genome using synthetic hexaploid approach was introgressed into bread wheat. tetraploid wheat (t. turgidum cv. langdon) was crossed with t. tauschii accession aus24092. immature embryos were rescued and placed onto b5 regeneration media. hybrid f1 pl...

Cereal Chem. 85(l):82-91 This study measured the relationship between bread quality and 49 hard red spring (HRS) or 48 hard red winter (HRW) grain, flour, and dough quality characteristics. The estimated bread quality attributes included loaf volume, bake mix time, bake water absorption, and crumb grain score. The best-fit models for loaf volume, bake mix time, and water absorption had R2 value...

background:the present study designed to test  effects of defatted soy-fortified wheat bread on the organoleptic properties as well as influences on rat growth rate. methods: defatted soy flour (dsf) was blended with wheat flour with extraction rate of 82-84% at 3, 7, and 7% levels plus 3% sugar. bread produced with these blends compared with regular taftoon bread and was tested for chemical an...

In this study, wheat, rye and green lentil seeds were germinated at different germination period (1, 3 5 days), dried ground into flour. Germinated seed flours substituted for wheat flour ratios (0, 5, 10 15%) in bread making; it was carried out order to increase nutritional functional properties of bread. As the increased, L* values decreased, a*, b* chroma increased. The highest protein value...

The bran and particularly the aleurone fraction of wheat are high in betaine and other physiological methyl donors, which may exert beneficial physiological effects. We conducted two randomised, controlled, cross-over postprandial studies to assess and compare plasma betaine and other methyl donor-related responses following the consumption of minimally processed bran and aleurone fractions (st...

The ability of four Lactobacillus strains - Lactobacillus brevis LBRZ7 (isolated from fermented cabbage), Lactobacillus plantarum LBRZ12 (isolated from fermented cabbage), Lactobacillus fermentum LBRH9 (of human origin) and Lactobacillus casei ssp. rhamnosus LBRC11 (isolated from home-made cheese) - to grow in flour/water environment and to accumulate high concentrations of viable cells was exa...

BACKGROUND The intake of dietary fibre has been shown to reduce the risk of developing diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of commercial rye whole-meal bread containing whole kernels and white wheat bread on the rate of gastric emptying and postprandial glucose response in healthy subjects. METHODS Ten healthy subjects took part in a blinded crossover trial. Bl...
