Evaluation of alpha-amylase activity and falling number for soft white and soft red wheat varieties adapted to Michigan
… is an important component of PHS and the falling number (FN) test is used by industry to identify sprouted wheat that is unacceptable for various food products. The objectives of this study were to evaluate wheat cultivars adapted to Michigan for the activity of α-amylase and FN values …

Evaluating Methods of Screening for Pre-Harvest Sprouting in Soft Red Winter Wheat and the Effect of Delayed Harvest on Flour Properties
… cultivars and to assess the relationship between falling number and flour quality after grain weathering. Employing a weighted germination index (WGI), a large range in dormancy was observed across SRWW cultivars and seed production. Artificial weathering tests confirmed the use of WGI as a tool …

Optimising durum wheat yield and quality
… Quality parameters include protein content and falling number of grain and flour, and flour and pasta colour. In this study, colour of grain, flour and pasta was quantified using the CIELAB colour space. High quality durum grain and flour was defined as that with high (>11.5%) protein content, …

An Investigation of Medieval Hospitals in England, Scotland and Wales, 1066-1560
… the changes in the status of founders, and the number, type and gender of staff and inmates during that time frame. Periods of growth and decline in hospitals were apparent, the most notable being the falling number of hospital foundations across most of Britain in the late 13 th century and the …

Agronomic, quality, and genetic analysis of the Rht18 semi-dwarfing gene in a Canadian Western Red Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) background
… spikes per unit area, protein percentage, and Falling Number, as well as a minor reduction in yield, test weight, and thousand kernel weight in the Rht18-carrying NILs. There was also reduced coleoptile length but no reduction in emergence compared to NILs that did not carry the gene. Compared …

Genetic control and prediction of milling and baking quality for UK wheat breeding
… such as grain specific weight and Hagberg falling number, for which little improvement has been made in recent decades of breeding. However, most QTL identified here could only explain a small proportion of the heritability of most complex quality traits. Genomic selection was shown to be …

Environmental Factors Affecting Pre-Maturity <i>Alpha</i>-Amylase Activity in Winter Wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i>)
… sprouting is one of four causes of low Hagberg falling number (HFN) in UK winter wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i>), reducing the quality and value of milled flour. Other causes include the retention of pericarp <i>alpha</i>-amylase activity (RPAA), pre-maturity sprouting (PrMS) and post-maturity …

Homologe intrauterine Insemination (IUI) im stimulierten Zyklus : Bedeutung von Spermiogrammparametern in Nativ-Spermiogrammen und nach Ejakulat-Aufbereitungen
… of the other utilized preparation methods the falling number of the present study is not sufficent, so that therefor further studies have to be put into practice. For the analysed parameters before and after preparation the following thresholds could be established.Thresholds for spermiogram …
