Saharan wheats have been studied particularly from a botanical viewpoint. Genotypic identification, classification and genetic diversity studies to date were essentially based on the morphology of the spike and grain. For this, the allelic variation at the glutenin loci was studied in a set of Saharan bread and durum wheats from Algerian oases where this crop has been traditionally cultivated. The high molecular weight and low molecular weight glutenin subunit composition of 40 Saharan bread and 30 durum wheats was determined by SDS-PAGE. In Saharan bread wheats 32 alleles at the six glutenin loci were detected, which in combination resulted in 36 different patterns including 17 for HMW and 23 for LMW glutenin subunits. For the Saharan durum wheats, 29 different alleles were identified for the five glutenin loci studied. Altogether, 29 glutenin patterns were detected, including 13 for HMW-GS and 20 for LMW-GS. Three new alleles were found in Saharan wheats, two in durum wheat at the Glu-B1 and Glu-B3 loci, and one in bread wheat at the Glu-B1 locus. The mean indices of genetic variation at the six loci in bread wheat and at the five loci in durum wheat were 0.59 and 0.63, respectively, showing that Saharan wheats were more diverse. This information could be useful to select Saharan varieties with improved quality and also as a source of genes to develop new lines when breeding for quality.

Buckwheat is recognized as an important traditional crop and supports local economies in several regions around the world. Buckwheat is used, for example, as a cereal grain, noodle and bread. In addition, buckwheat is also used as a sprout or a young seedling. For these foods, sprouting is an important characteristic that affects food quality. For foods made from buckwheat flour, pre-harvest sprouting may decrease yield, which also leads to the deterioration of noodle quality. Breeding buckwheat that is resistant to pre-harvest sprouting is therefore required. Germination and subsequent growth are also important characteristics of the quality of sprouts. Although buckwheat sprouts are the focus because they contain many functional compounds, such as rutin, several problems have been noted, such as thin hypocotyls and husks remaining on sprouts. To date, several new varieties have been developed to resolve these quality issues. In this review, we summarize and introduce research on the breeding of buckwheat related to quality, sprouting and subsequent sprout growth.

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.

In this study, pre-gelatinized simple corn flour with microwave and three levels of Balangu Shirazi gum were used in producing gluten free bread. The substructure of two types of flour was evaluated using the electronic microscope. The properties of bread samples including moisture, specific volume, porosity, crust color, texture and overall acceptance were studied. The results of electronic microscope showed that the granular structure of corn flour was coherent. However, the granular structure of pre-gelatinized corn flour had more structural expansion and swell because of demolished heat. In addition, samples containing pre-gelatinized corn flour and 2% Balangu Shirazi gum had the highest humidity in the first (22.5%) and third (19.4%) day. The highest porosity (23.3% and 23.5%) and specific volume (4.9 and 5.1 cm3 /g) and the minimal texture firmness were observed within 1 day after manufacturing (4.8 & 4.9 Newton) in samples containing pregelatinized corn flour and two levels of Balangu Shirazi gum (1% and 2%). Moreover, the results showed that increased L* colorful component (52% increase) caused by using the pre-gelatinized corn flour and raising the consumption level of gum. The presence of gum didn’t have a significant impact on two colorful components such as a* and b*. The use of pregelatinized corn flour resulted in decreasing b* colorful component. Also, sensory evaluations gave the highest score of overall acceptance to samples containing pre-gelatinized corn flour and two levels of Balangu Shirazi gum (1% and 2%).

The composition of high molecular weight (HMW-GS) and low molecular weight (LMW-GS) glutenin subunits was examined in a collection of 86 Czech registered winter wheat varieties. These proteins were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. An inter-varietal polymorphism of the HMW and LMW glutenin subunits was detected. Twenty-one different patterns for HMW were identified, and eighteen for the LMW-glutenins. The different alleles encoded at the six glutenin loci were determined. Three, six, and four alleles were observed, respectively at the <I>Glu-A1, Glu-</I>B1, and <I>Glu-D1 </I>loci (encoding high HMW-GS). Three, eight, and three alleles of LMW-GS were found, respectively, at the <I>Glu-A3, Glu- B3</I>, and <I>Glu-D3 </I>loci. The evaluated varieties were split into four categories of baking quality, and these variety groups were analyzed for the presence of different HMW-GS and LMW-GS alleles. While the alleles <I>Glu-B1c </I>(7+9), and <I>Glu-D1d </I>(5+10) were detected exclusively in bread wheat varieties, the alleles <I>Glu-B1d </I>(6+8), <I>Glu-D1a </I>(2+12), and <I>Glu-A3e/f </I>only occurred in those varieties that are not suitable for bread-making. &nbsp;
