Arkansas Wheat Performance Tests 2022-2023, J. F. Carlin, R. B. Mulloy, R. D. Bond

Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series

Wheat variety performance tests are conducted each year in Arkansas by the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture’s Arkansas Crop Variety Improvement Program.

The tests provide information to companies developing cultivars and marketing seed within the state and aid the Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service in formulating variety recommendations for small-grain producers. The tests were conducted at the Northeast Research and Extension Center at Keiser, the Vegetable Substation near Kibler, the Lon Mann Cotton Research Station near Marianna, the Pine Tree Research Station near Colt, and the Rohwer Research Station near Rohwer. Specific location and cultural practice information accompany each …

Determination Of Soybean And Wheat Allergens In Food By Dual Real-Time Fluorescence Pcr, Jin Ping, Ding Hong-Liu, Zhang Min, Jin Xiao-Hong

Food and Machinery

Objective: A multiplex fluorescence PCR method based on TaqMan probe was developed for simultaneous detection of soybean and wheat allergens in food. Methods: TaqMan probe dual PCR was designed and established based on wheat gliadin gene and soybean lectin gene, respectively. The soybean Lectin gene was detected with FAM marker, and the wheat gliadin gene was detected with HEX marker. Moreover, the eukaryotic 18S rRNA was used as internal reference gene to ensure the effectiveness of the detection system. Results: The multiplex fluorescence PCR method for detection of soybean and wheat allergens created in this …

Rapid Detection Of Alternaria Monomethyl Ether In Wheat By High Performance Liquid Chromatography, Xu Qun-Ying, Zhai Yu-Heng

Food and Machinery

In this study, a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the efficient detection of alternariolmethyl ether (AME) in wheat was developed. The sample was extracted with acetonitrile/ methanol/ water (volume ratio 45/10/45), shaken at 30 ℃ for 30 minutes, and purified by Bond Elut Plexa solid-phase extraction cartridge. Then the sample was detected with a Variable wavelength detector. In this method, the limit of detection (LOD) of AME was 2.52 μg/kg, and the limit of quantification (LOQ) was 8.40 μg/kg, and the linear range was 0.25~2.00 μg/mL. The concentration of AME recovery was 80.1%~88.3%, the intra-day precision and inter-day precision …

Reducing The Potential For Acrylamide Formation In Wheat Products, Amy Hauver, P. Stephen Baenziger, Mary J. Guttieri

UCARE Research Products

Acrylamide, a chemical formed from free asparagine and reducing sugars during high-temperature cooking via the Maillard reaction (i.e. frying or baking) of high starch foods is deemed ‘probably carcinogenic to humans’ based on its affect in mice. In April of 2002, a group of Swedish researchers reported findings that presented evidence that heat-treated, starch-rich foods contained high levels of acrylamide, later linking the production of acrylamide to the Maillard reaction. A number of other studies have been done to link dietary intake of acrylamide to human cancers and other health effects, although many have had inconclusive results. Nevertheless, the World …

Evaluation On Leaf Proline Amount In Three Bread Wheat Cultivars In Presence Of Two Fertilizers Containing Amino Acids In Drought Stress, Amin Mousavi Khaneghah Mr

Amin Mousavi Khaneghah

To study leaf proline amount in presence of two fertilizers containing amino acids in drought stress on three bread wheat cultivars, a research was conducted in Ardabil IAU Research Center in 2012. To achieve this, factorial experimental design based on completely randomized block design was used. Factor A in six conditions (normal, aminol forte and fosnutren, drought, drought + aminol forte, drought + fosnutren) and factor B included three wheat genotypes (Kuhdasht, Cross Sabalan and Chmran). Results showed that there is a significant difference between The solutions on leave proline at 1 percent. Also, there was a significant difference between …

Use Of Annual And Perennial Triticeae Species For Wheat Improvement, A. Mujeeb-Kazi

Herbarium Publications

Constraints due to global biotic and abiotic stress continue to exist in wheat germ plasm. Novel genetic diversity resides in several annual/perennial Triticeae species that can be introgressed into wheat through intergeneric hybridization, of which Thinopyrum curvifolium is the principle source as it addresses the emphasis here for achieving wheat derivatives resistant to Helminthosporium leaf blight (Cochliobolus sativus). Some additional sources like Th. elongatum (2n=2x= 14) and Secale cereale are also mentioned. The interspecific hybridization strategy offers alien genetic introgression opportunities, for which the closely related Triticum species have a priority. Of these sources, the D genome T. tauschii (Aegilops …

Wheat Payments And Protein Content, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia

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

In recent years there has been increasing support from within the Australian wheat industry for the principal of wheat growers recieving payment for their grain according to market value.

Individual loads are now tested for quality characteristics such as hectolitre weight, unmillable material and moisture content.

At present, technology is not sufficiently advanced to enable rapid and accurate analysis of individual loads for all important quality factors.

A more practical system of quality assessment would be one based on allowances for various basic measures (such as hectolitre weight, unmillable material and moisture content), variety (to allow for genetic differences in …

Insignia Lowers Wheat Quality, J A. Parish, H. M. Fisher

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

Farmers in Western Australia have been advised not to plant Insignia wheat because it has poor grain quality. Many farmers want to know why Insignia is considered poor quality and what harm it could do. This article answers these questions and suggests alternative, better quality wheats for all present situations.

The Biology And Ecology Of Trogoderma Glabrum (Herbst) In Stored Grains, Benjamin H. Kantack, Robert Staples

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

These investigations were undertaken to determine the distribution and importance of Trogoderma glabrum (Herbst) in stored grain in Nebraska, the ecological factors favoring population increase in stored wheat, corn, and sorghum, and the role T. glabrum might play in disseminating internally the Aspergillus molds commonly encountered in stored grain.
