Kernel morphology and texture influence the value of wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.). The objectives this study were to determine associations between kernel traits molecular markers identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting in a soft × hard white cross. Seventy eight F 2:5 ‐derived recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from cross NY6432‐18 (NY18) ‘Clark's Cream’ (CC) developed by single seed descent. was measured near infrared reflectance (NIR) on RIL grain samples six environments.

ABSTRACT Important rice grain quality characteristics such as percentage of chalky kernels are affected by both high and low night temperatures different day day/night temperature combinations. High nighttime have also been suspected reducing milling including head yields. Experiments to confirm or refute this not reported. A controlled climate experiment was conducted. Conditions in the chambers were identical except between 2400 0500 hours (midnight 5 am). For those times, two treatments...

ABSTRACT Rice bran contains phytochemicals such as E vitamers (i.e., tocopherols and tocotrienols) the γoryzanol fraction that reportedly may have positive effects on human health. Brown rice, rice bran, extracts are therefore attractive candidates for use in development of functional foods. The objectives this project were to quantify genetics versus environment tocopherol, tocotrienol, γ‐oryzanol contents Southern U.S. determine associations between levels these phytochemicals. Seven...

ABSTRACT Amylose content is a parameter that correlates with the cooking behavior of rice. It measured at earliest possible stages rice improvement programs to enable breeders build foundations appropriate grain quality during cultivar development. usually quantified by absorbance amylose‐iodine complex. The International Network for Quality Rice (INQR) conducted survey determine ways amylose measured, reproducibility between laboratories, and sources variation. Each laboratory set 17...

ABSTRACT The aroma of rice plays a role in its consumer acceptability. popcorn‐like smell aromatic stemming primarily from 2‐ acetyl‐1‐pyrroline (2‐AP) content is considered desirable by many consumers. Conversely, hexanal has been correlated with off odors that develop lipid oxidation. A rapid method for 2‐AP and quantification suitable use breeding programs, large‐scale research efforts, quality assurance programs needed. While developing such method, sample preparation (degree milling,...

Solid phase microextraction (SPME) is used to collect and concentrate the compounds in headspace of rice. This research describes optimization parameters temperature, moisture, sampling time. Optimization was based upon recovered levels 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2-AP), popcorn aroma aromatic The method uses a temperature 80 degrees C adds 100 microL water 0.75 g sample rice preheated for 25 min, carboxen/DVB/PDMS SPME fiber exposed 15 subsequent GC-MS analysis took 35 min. Samples can be...

Interclass hybridization between soft and hard wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) results in new genetic combinations of potential value. We investigated whether interclass could improve end‐use quality both classes. Our objectives were to analyze traits a population recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from cross the good white NY6432‐18 (NY18), Clark's Cream (CC), identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for those traits, use linkage analysis determine which parent was contributing favorable...

Abstract Rice ( Oryza sativa L.) bran contains valuable nutritional constituents, which include lipids with health benefits. A germplasm collection consisting of 204 genetically diverse rice accessions was grown under field conditions and evaluated for total oil content fatty acid (FA) composition. Genotype effects were highly statistically significant lipid FA profile P <0.001). Environment (year) significantly affected <0.05), as well stearic, oleic, linoleic, linolenic acids (all...

It is internationally accepted that malnutrition and chronic diseases in developing countries are key limitations to achieving the Millennium Development Goals. In many countries, rice primary source of nutrition. those major forms Fe-induced anaemia, Zn deficiency Vitamin A deficiency, whereas disease challenges Type II diabetes, cardiovascular some cancers.
