Method ISTA SDS-PAGE was used for separation, detection and evaluation of high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW) in the different wheat species. The relation has been studied between the HMW glutenin subunit alleles and the bread-making quality of 25 world wheat cultivars and 21 regional varieties common wheat varieties (Triticum aestivum L.), 17 winter spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.), 3 durum wheat cultivars (Triticum durum DESF.), 9 cultivars of Triticum turgidum L. and 5 cultivars of Triticum polonicum L. The highest frequency of occurrence of HMW glutenin subunits 2*, 13 + 16 and 5 + 10 were found in world wheat cultivars. In Slovak wheat varieties were analysed subunits 0, 7 + 9 and 5 + 10, 2 + 12. The HMW subunits 0, 7 + 8 with Glu-score 4 were determined in Triticum durum DESF. Three electrophoretical profile groups of different HMW glutenin subunits were found in Triticum turgidum L. and Triticum polonicum L. and six electrophoretical profile groups were determined in Triticum spelta L. The verified correlations between bread-making quality and specific HMW subunits of glutenin can be utilised by wheat breeders using SDS-PAGE of proteins as a screening test for the prediction of bread-making quality of wheat.

The relation between high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutenin subunits and bread-making quality could enable selection for improved bread-making quality in early stages of breeding process. The composition of HMW glutenin subunits was investigated in F<sub>2</sub> and F<sub>7</sub> progenies derived from the cross between winter wheat varieties Sulamit and Clever. The presence of Glu-A1 (AxNull and Ax1), Glu-B1 (Bx6+By8 and Bx 17+By18) and Glu-D1 alleles (x 5+Dy10 and Dx 2+Dy12) was monitored using a PCR based assay. Segregation of alleles corresponded with the theoretically assumed 1:2:1 Mendelian ratio in F<sub>2</sub> generation, however, the values of &chi;<sup>2</sup>-test in F<sub>7</sub> generation indicated a strong affection of allelic frequencies by the breeding process. Significant variation was also observed in Glu-1 score frequency between F<sub>2</sub> and F<sub>7</sub> generation. These changes were probably caused by deliberate phenotypic selection for important agronomical traits. SDS and Zeleny sedimentation tests, mixographic parameter breakdown and HMW glutenin composition were analyzed in F<sub>7</sub> to reveal the effects of different combinations of HMW glutenin alleles on the bread-making quality characters. The results showed statistically significant differences in the contribution of HMW glutenin alleles. In general, the alleles Ax1, Bx17+By18 and Dx5+Dy 10 can be considered as markers of good baking quality. The data presented in this paper suggest that heterozygous constitution may also have a positive effect on bread-making quality.

It is well known that the composition of high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutenin subunits impacts the bread making quality. The HMW subunits 1Dx5-1Dyl0 are typically associated with high dough strength and good bread making quality contrary to 1Dx2-lDyl2 subunits. Bread wheat cultivars from Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in Novi Sad have been screened for the alleles present at Glu-Dl locus using traditional SDS PAG electrophoresis method and a new PCR based approach. The Glu-Dl locus was screened for two main x-type alleles which code for HMW glutenins 2 and 5, and two main y-type alleles which code for HMW glutenin subunits 10 and 12. Among the analyzed cultivars 55.6% expressed the presence of 1Dx5 and 1Dy10 alleles at the Glu-Dl locus. These results confirmed that by using marker-assisted selection (MAS) it is possible to identify genotypes with alleles for good bread making quality which could be successfully used in wheat breeding programs.

Bread-making quality is one of the most important targets in the genetic improvement of wheat. Although extensive analyses of quality traits such as farinography, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) sedimentation, alveography, and baking are made in breeding programs, these analyses require high amounts of seeds which are obtained only in late generations. In this experiment the statistical correlations between the high molecular weight subunit of glutenin and bread-making quality measured by alveograph, farinograph and SDS sedimentation were evaluated. Seventeen wheat genotypes were grown under the same conditions, each producing about 1 kg of seeds for the evaluations. The high molecular weight (HMW) glutenin subunits were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Statistical correlations were highly significant between HMW glutenin subunits and alveograph and SDS sedimentation. These results indicate the possibility of manipulating major genes for wheat seed quality by coupling traditional breeding with non-destructive single seed analysis. Only half seed is necessary to perform the SDS-PAGE analysis. Therefore, the other half seed can be planted to generate the progeny. Seed yield and SDS sedimentation were statistically correlated, indicating the possibility of simultaneous selection for both traits

Fertilizer Rates

The effects of weather and nitrogen application rate on bread volume, protein concentration and gluten strength were investigated in spring and winter wheats in Sweden during 1990–96. The investigation was carried out in wheats containing the high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutenin subunit combinations 2+12 or 5+10.The results showed that a warm (c. 20°C mean dry temperature) and dry grain-filling period, as during 1994 and 1995, led to high gluten strength. As a relatively gentle dough mixing is normally applied in Sweden when baking bread, excessively high gluten strength results in low bread volumes. Wheat cultivars containing HMW glutenin subunits 5+10 generally had higher gluten strength than those containing subunits 2+12. However, not all the cultivars containing subunits 5+10 showed overstrong gluten properties, whereas some cultivars containing subunits 2+12 were overstrong during 1994 and 1995. Different cultivars produced the highest gluten strength in different years. Generally, cultivars containing HMW subunits 2+12 gave higher bread volumes than those containing subunits 5+10. This is probably due to the Swedish baking method, where the dough is given a relatively gentle mixing for a fixed period of time.Increased fertilizer rates led to increased protein concentration and decreased gluten strength. However, during certain years, for example 1994, the gluten strength was only decreased slightly by increased fertilizer rates, particularly in cultivars containing HMW glutenin subunits 5+10.

A collection of 120 Ethiopian tetraploid wheat accessions was analysed for high-molecular weight (HMW) glutenin subunit, low-molecular weight (LMW) glutenin subunit and omega gliadin composition by SDS–PAGE. For the HMW glutenin subunits, a new allelic variant, 2****, was detected which has not been previously described at the Glu-A1 locus. A high proportion of Glu-A1x banding pattern was observed in durum wheat. For the Glu-B1 locus four different banding patterns were detected. Among those HMW glutenin subunits, 7+8 were the most common, while subunits 14+15 and 6+8 were found to be rare. A high degree of variation was evident for the LMW glutenin subunits and D-zone omega gliadins. The association of the composition of the gluten with quality has been discussed. This wide variation can be used in improving the quality of wheat and to widen its genetic base.
