A PCR-based method for discriminating between high molecular weight glutenin subunits Bx7 and Bx7* in Triticum aestivum L [PDF]
The correct assignment of high molecular weight glutenin subunit variants is a key task in wheat breeding. However, the traditional analysis by protein electrophoresis is sometimes difficult and not very precise.

Wheat glutenin subunits and dough elasticity: findings of the EUROWHEAT project [PDF]
Detailed studies of wheat glutenin subunits have provided novel details of their molecular structures and interactions which allow the development of a model to explain their role in determining the visco-elastic properties of gluten and dough.

Small angle neutron scattering contrast variation reveals heterogeneities of interactions in protein gels [PDF]
The structure of model gluten protein gels prepared in ethanol/water is investigated by small angle X-ray (SAXS) and neutrons (SANS) scattering. We show that gluten gels display radically different SAXS and SANS profiles when the solvent is (at least ...

Variations in yield and gluten proteins in durum wheat varieties under late-season foliar versus soil application of nitrogen fertilizer in a northern Mediterranean environment [PDF]
BACKGROUND: With the increasing demand for high-quality foodstuffs and concern for environmental sustainability, late-season nitrogen (N) foliar fertilization of common wheat is now an important and widespread practice.

Gluten Immunogenic Peptides as Standard for the Evaluation of Potential Harmful Prolamin Content in Food and Human Specimen [PDF]
Gluten is a complex mixture of storage proteins in cereals like wheat, barley, and rye. Prolamins are the main components of gluten. Their high content in proline and glutamine makes them water-insoluble and difficult to digest in the gastrointestinal ...

Iron and zinc grain density in common wheat grown in Central Asia [PDF]
Sixty-six spring and winter common wheat genotypes from Central Asian breeding programs were evaluated for grain concentrations of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). Iron showed large variation among genotypes, ranging from 25 mg kg1 to 56 mg kg1 (mean 38 mg kg1).

Pasta-making properties of the new durum wheat variety biensur suitable for the northern mediterranean environment [PDF]
Industrial pasta is commonly made from mixtures of semolina from different durum wheat varieties, and there is a very low market presence of mono-varietal pasta from local, short supply chains. In this work, dough rheological properties and pasta quality

ABSTRACT Background There is an increasing interest in healthier, nutrient‐rich foods so alternative grains produced in smaller quantities—including spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.)—have once again become the focus of consumers. At the same time, the scientific proof of these claims is incomplete.

How to Reduce Wheat Allergens and FODMAPs in Foods: A Critical Review of Patents
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Supported by scientific evidence, this critical review of the patent literature examined methods to reduce wheat allergens and FODMAPs in foods, which may trigger digestive disorders and other health problems. The following topics were covered: proteolytic enzymes, proteolytic bacteria and yeasts, separation, plant ...
