Soil Sulfur and Nitrogen Affect Wheat Flour Mixing Characteristics and Protein Features in Flour and Dough

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Sulfur and nitrogen affect wheat yield and the protein content and quality. Hard red spring wheat (Albany cultivar) grown under six different soil nitrate application levels (0, 60, 120, 180, 240, and 300 lbs/acre) and two sulfur levels (0 or 20 lbs/acre) was used.
