Multi-instrumental Approaches to Determine End-use Quality in Wheat
… of wheat flour during processing. Wheat end-use quality has become the main driver of the wheat market. Hard white wheat (HWW) is the newest class of U.S. wheat. It has been developed for the dual purpose of making breads and noodles. There is a need to identify reliable quality tests …

Genomic Selection, Quantitative Trait Loci and Genome-Wide Association Mapping for Spring Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Improvement
Molecular breeding involves the use of molecular markers to identify and characterize genes that control quantitative traits. Two of the most commonly used methods to dissect complex traits in plants are linkage analysis and association mapping. These methods are used to identify markers associated …

Evaluation of Spring Wheat Genotypes for Nutritional and Bread-making Quality
… gas has helped to make it the most widely used cereal ingredient for bread and other baked food products. In addition to superior bake quality, recent awareness on chemo-preventive benefits of wheat has encouraged breeders to develop cultivars with high phenolic compound levels that can …

Ozonation Systems as a Non-Chemical Alternative for Stored Grain Protection
<p>The use of ozone as a non-chemical alternative in stored grain protection was studied by conducting scale-up demonstrations using a fixed bed ozonation system and developing a semi-continuous counterflow and a continuous flow ozonation treatment system. The objectives of this research were to …

Understanding the genetic and physiological control of pre-harvest sprouting and pre-maturity amylase in UK wheat
… defects in wheat grains that reduce their end-use quality. PHS is the precocious germination of grains before harvest while PMA is the accumulation of α-amylase in grains. Both traits are quantitative in their expression and are strongly influenced by the environment. In this project, I …

Flour quality and dough stickiness of soft red winter wheat lines with and without 1B/1R translocations
… Farmers must produce wheat with good yield and quality to meet the high demands for wheat flour. To reduce disease and increase wheat yield, cultivars have been developed by replacing the short arm of chromosome 1B of wheat with the short arm of the 1R chromosome from rye (Secale cereale L.). …

Investigation of winter wheat sowing date management and genetic architecture of malting quality in winter barley and milling/baking performance in soft red winter wheat
… and the development cultivars that meet the quality requirements of higher value end-use markets is important to increase production and profitability of winter annual grains and the double crop rotation in the Eastern U.S. In Chapter I, fifteen commercially relevant winter wheat genotypes …

Impact of Low-Amylose, Waxy Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) Flour Blends on Functional Tortilla Characteristics
… of wheat flour starch components affecting end-use quality in food products is not well understood. However, the breeding of waxy wheat lines having low levels of amylose starch has provided new possibilities to characterize the impact of starch on end-use food quality and functionality. The …
