Results Of Systematic Analyses For Protein And Lysine Composition Of Common Wheats (Triticum Aestivum L.) In The Usda World Collection, K. P. Vogel, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Protein and lysine contents of 12,613 common wheats of the USDA World Wheat Collection were determined in order to identify wheats that may be sources of genes for high protein and high lysine. Results indicate that significant genetic differences in protein and lysine content probably exist among world collection common wheats. Selection criteria have been developed for further evaluation of World Collection lines high in protein and lysine content.

Wheat Quality In W.A, J A. Parish

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Three separate quality classes or categories of wheat are now received by C.B.H. These are a soft biscuit wheat, a hard bread wheat and a mixed grain suitable as a filler wheat in bread-making and for making noodles.

In this article the basis of quality differences between these classes of wheat is described and some of the terms and concepts used in distinguishing between cultivars (varieties) and classes of wheat are discussed.

G73-24 Winter Wheat Varieties, Lenis Alton Nelson, R.H. Hammons, P. Stephen Baenziger

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide provides brief descriptions of selected winter wheat varieties released since 1984. The University of Nebraska Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources conducts wheat variety trials in all parts of Nebraska. Private companies enter their varieties or hybrids in the test voluntarily. Public entries are chosen by the agronomy staff at the University. The current copy of the annual Extension Circular, Nebraska Fall-Sown Small Grain Variety Tests, includes detailed yield, bushel weight, other performance data, and period of years data. Nebraska Cooperative Extension and the University's Agricultural Research Division jointly publish these circulars which are available from Extension offices …

G73-35 How To Plant Wheat, C. R. Fenster, G. A. Peterson

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Winter wheat needs a seedbed that is firm enough to provide good seed-soil contact and is moist enough to provide water for germination and seedling establishment. Winter wheat needs a seedbed that is firm enough to provide good seed-soil contact and is moist enough to provide water for germination and seedling establishment. Other Nebraska Experiment Station information is available on how to properly prepare the seedbed.
