there is limited knowledge about physiological and biochemical functions of bread wheat and durum wheat genotypes in response to drought stress. to study differences of drought-sensitive bread and durum wheat genotypes to drought stress, this study was conducted under two different irrigation regimes (well-watered and water-stressed treatments) under glasshouse conditions. the experiment was co...

take-all disease of wheat (gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici) (ggt) is one of the most destructive root diseases in the world. it has not been introduced resistant genotype against this disease. in this study, 416 genotype of bread wheat, received from different location of iran and other countries, were evaluated to take-all (t-41 isolate) in greenhouse conditions. root dry weight, shoot dr...

BACKGROUND Previous studies indicate that elevated amylose content in products from rice, corn, and barley induce lower postprandial glycaemic responses and higher levels of resistant starch (RS). Consumption of slowly digestible carbohydrates and RS has been associated with health benefits such as decreased risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the postprandial g...

Plants, being sessile in nature, have developed mechanisms to cope with high salt concentrations in the soil. In this study, the effects of NaCl (50-200 mM) on expression of high-affinity potassium transporters (HKTs), antioxidant enzymes and their isozyme profiles were investigated in two contrasting bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes viz., HD2329 (salt-sensitive) and Kharchia65 (sal...

BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies associate consumption of whole grain foods, including breads, with reduced cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk; however, few studies have compared wheat whole grains with wheat refined grains. METHODS This study investigated effects of 6-week consumption of whole grain wheat sourdough bread in comparison to white bread on fasting serum lipids in normoglycemic/...

INTRODUCTION This study was undertaken with the objectives of formulating composite bread by utilising finger millet flour and foxtail millet flour and further to evaluate these breads for sensory, nutritional qualities, and glycemic response. METHODS Two genotypes of finger millet VL-146 and PRM-601 and one local cultivar of foxtail millet were studied. The finger millet flour (FMF) and foxt...
