the 1rs chromosome segment derived from petkus rye carries genes for resistance to three wheat rust diseases, namely lr26 for resistance to leaf rust (caused by puccinia triticina), yr9 for resistance to stripe rust (p.striiformis f. sp. tritici) and sr31 for resistance to stem rust (p. graminis f. sp. tritici). since sec-1 is tightly linked with the three rust resis-tance genes electrophoresis...

Gluten proteins from wheat, rye, barley and, in rare cases, oats, are responsible for triggering hypersensitivity reactions such as celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity and wheat allergy. Well-defined reference materials (RM) are essential for clinical studies, diagnostics, elucidation of disease mechanisms and food analyses to ensure the safety of gluten-free foods. Various RM are cur...

Hexaploid triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack) is rarely used for human consumption because of its poor bread-making quality. To create the genetic potential for bread-making quality similar to that of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L), rye (Secale cereale L.) chromosome 1R in triticale cv. Presto was cytogenetically engineered to remove secalin loci Sec-1 and Sec-3, and to introduce wheat stor...

Celiac disease (CD) is an inflammatory disorder of the small intestine. Gluten peptides are supposed to be responsible for reaction, best-researched which so-called ‘33-mer’. Analogous in secalins (rye) and hordeins (barley) have been described. This study presents degradation gliadins, glutenins, purified from respective flours using a prolyl endopeptidase Basidiomycete Flammulina velutipes (F...

The aim of this study was to identify the genetic changes in rye seeds induced by natural aging during long-term storage and successive regeneration cycles under gene bank conditions. Genomic DNA from four rye samples (cv. Dańkowskie Złote), varying in their initial viability and having gone through one or three reproduction cycles, were analysed using specific PCR targeting of a secalin locus,...

To date, no published data exists on distances and speeds traveled by rugby or basketball players during game play. The purpose of this study was to provide quantitative information of selected characteristics of wheelchair basketball and rugby game play. A miniaturized data logger was used to collect the distance traveled, average velocity, activity time, and number of starts and stops during ...
