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...

the importance of dietary fiber in normal and therapeutic diets has been acknowledged by numerous authors in recent years. dietary fiber has different physiological effects on human health. the recommended daily intake of dietary fiber is about 30 g, but less than this is often consumed. wheat bran is an excellent source of dietary fiber and is used to fortify foods. the nutritional benefits of...

in order to evaluation the different sowing date and different harvest time in intercropping of maize and legume plants on maize forage quality, a randomized complete block with three replications conducted in research field of university of sari agricultural sciences and natural resources in 2011. treatments were included three legume plants (soybean, fenugreek and cowpea) at two sowing time (...

The many factors that determine the price and suitability for processing of cereal grain can be divided into two groups: seasonal factors and inherited factors. Seasonal factors are largely determined by growing, harvesting, and storage conditions. These aspects of quality are readily tested and include moisture content, test weight, soundness of the grain, and the presence of contaminants. On ...

Three sets of hexaploid introgressive triticale lines, with Triticum monococcum ssp. monococcum (cultivated einkorn wheat) genes and a bread wheat chromosome 1D substituted for chromosome 1A, and one set of secondary triticale lines were evaluated for grain and flour physicochemical and dough rheological characteristics in two generations (F7 and F8). Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) and fl...

Wheat yield and quality parameters are spatially variable because of inherent spatial variability of factors affecting crop at a field scale. The following semolina quality parameters were analyzed in 100 georeferenced locations, in a 12-ha durum wheat field in southern Italy: protein content (PC, %), dough strength (W = Jx10 ) and tenacity/extensibility ratio (P/L). The study identified few ho...

Limited water resources restrict winter wheat grain yield and quality in the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain of North China, and establishing optimal planting patterns according to crop water requirements is the key factor for achieving rational water use. In this paper, 4 planting patterns were applied, namely, uniform row (30 cm; traditional pattern), wide (40 cm)-narrow (20 cm) row, furrow (double line...
