Aim. To determine the formation of bound amino acids in grain of new wheat varieties and its biological value. Methods. Field, physical-chemical, computational, analysis. Results. The differences in amino acid composi- tion of new varieties and lines of wheat were analyzed. It was established that the highest content of essential amino acids was in the grain of the Kulundynka variety (5.18 %) or 2.5 times higher compared to the standard (2.99 %). Their content in the grain of soft wheat, obtained by the hybridization of Triticum aestivum L./Triti- cum spelta L., was 1.4–1.5 times higher compared to the control. The grain of the soft variety Kulundynka had the highest biological value as the score of essential amino acids was not defi cient and the remaining varieties were defi cient in 2–5 amino acids. Only methionine was defi cient in the grain of soft wheat lines (AAS = 64– 74 %). Conclusions. The content of amino acids in soft wheat grain depends considerably on weather condi- tions, selective-genetic origin of the variety and the line. Glutamic acid, proline, and leucine were found to be most abundant. Out of nine samples of soft wheat tested, only the seed of the Kulundynka variety had a non- defi cient amino acid score (91–298 %), and in the Pannonikus variety methionine was limited (49 %). The best balanced content of amino acids is present in the grain of non-spelt lines, obtained by hybridization of Triticum aestivum L. and Triticum spelta L., namely Р 7 and LPP 1314. The grain of these lines has a non-defi cient amino acid score, more methionine (AAS = 64–74 %), and supplies human daily requirement in the best way. The grain has a high index of complex estimation and metabolization coeffi cient for essential amino acids.

We analysed the crude protein content, amino acid content, amino acid composition of four forage and milling III. quality winter wheat varieties (Magor, Hunor, Róna and Kondor) from their samples from five following years (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007). We found that quantity of essential and non-essential amino acids rose with increase in crude protein content. On examination of protein amino acid composition in relation to crude protein content we found that the crude protein content increased the quantities of the non-essential amino acids also rose, while those of the essential amino acids decreased as the lysine, the limiting amino acid of wheat. We also established that, as crude protein content increased, the biological value of the protein decreased.

The article focuses on protein content and amino acid composition in different varieties of forage beans (Istok, Maria, Uzunovskie, Alfred), which are used in fodder of the farm poultry. Among them, there was studied a limiting factor - methionine, cysteine and lysine content. Portion of crude protein in the studied varieties of forage beans made between 24.7% (Alfred variety) - 27.9% (Maria variety), mean value made 26.3%. According to absolute portion of amino acids, Istok variety stands out among the rest. Amount of essential amino acids in crude protein is mean 44.32% with great instability of values: from 36.6 to 49.6%. The ratio of essential amino acids to nonessential amino acids (amino acid index) is an average of 0.53. Biological value of forage beans samples varied from 45.7% (Maria variety) to 52.8% (Istok variety), an average value made 49.9%. A comparative analysis of amino acid content of forage beans and eggs showed low biological value of forage beans due to the shortage of amino acids, particularly sulphur bearing ones: methionine and cysteine. Taking into account the fact that the better protein in the fodder meets the animals’ need in amino acids, the more of it is used to support vital functions of the organism, maximum fertility. In order to increase biological value of forage beans it is necessary to select varieties with greater content of essential amino acids, especially, limiting ones.

The results of the research on the assessment of the biological value of wheat after storage by the composition and ratio of amino acids are presented. It is shown that after 6.5 years of storage in elevator silos, the protein content in wheat met the requirements of the standard for class 3 wheat. The sum of all amino acids was from 11.5 to 13.1 g / 100 g, including essential amino acids — 4.0-4.5g/100g and non-essential — 7.8-8.7 g / 100 g. The proportion of essential amino acids was 33.7-35.3% of the total amino acid content. The calculation of the amino acid score demonstrated that the main amino acid limiting the nutritional value of wheat after storage is lysine with an amino acid score of 45-53%. The essential amino acids threonine, valine, isoleucine, and leucine are also classified as deficient, but with a higher value of the amino acid score, close to the complete protein.

The addition of essential amino acids to all-vegetable diets, so as to raise the biological value of their proteins to the level of animal-protein concentrates, has often been advocated in the past by animal nutritionists. This aim was frustrated in practice since it was impossible, until recently, to secure the necessary supplies at prices that would make such additions economical. Feeding stuffs with added amino acids are now being sold commercially. This is possible following the manufacture of synthetic DL-methionine and crude L-lysine monochloride.It seemed desirable, therefore, to carry out investigations into the potential value of these amino acids to the pig feeder. This paper deals with the effect on growth, food utilization and retention of nitrogen of adding small amounts of lysine and methionine to the diet. An attempt is made to correlate the amino acid composition of the pig's diet with its rate of growth, the energy supply being adequate.

SUMMARYAt the present time attempts are being made to improve the nutritional value of wheat by increasing the content of certain essential amino acids, particularly lysine, in the proteins of the grain. Rye grain has a considerably higher lysine content than that of wheat. Consequently in the present work studies were made of the amino acid contents of the grains of the wheat variety Holdfast, the rye variety King II, the Triticale derived from these parental varieties and the seven lines in which, in turn, each pair of chromosomes of King II are separately added to Holdfast.Rye chromosome I increased the lysine content of wheat by 8·7% and associated changes in the proportions of other amino acids suggest that this increase is meaningful. Rye chromosome I is in homoeologous group 5 and other reports have indicated a relationship between changed lysine content and another character determined by chromosomes of this group. Consequently there is a suggestion that group 5 chromosomes may be of particular significance in the determination of lysine content in wheat grains. Confirmation of this would lead to a more rational approach to breeding for higher lysine content.

Penaeus japonicus is an important marine shrimps resource in China. In order to evaluate the nutritional value, the contents of general nutritional compositions, amino acids and fatty acids in muscle were compared between wild and farmed P. japonicus. The contents of muscle moisture and crude protein, fat and ash in wild P. japonicus were 77.16%, 17.74%, 2.08% and 1.79%, and those in farmed P. japonicus were 78.02%, 17.26%, 2.04% and 1.63%, respectively. The essential amino acids (EAA) in wild and farmed P. japonicus were 23.25% and 22.43%, respectively. The amino acid score of essential amino acids were higher than 100 except Leu and Trp, so the protein of P. japonicus has a well-balanced amino acid composition. Wild P. japonicus has more unsaturated fatty acids (64.05%) than farmed group (60.34%). Higher n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), eicosapentainoic acids (EPA, 20:5 n-3), docosahexaenoic acids (DHA, 22:6 n-3) contents and lower C16:0, C20:0, C18:1, C18:2, C18:3 levels were detected in the wild group. Values of n-6/n-3 in muscle of farmed and wild P. japonicus were 0.30 and 0.23 respectively, which were both significantly lower than the maximum value (4.0) recommended by UK Department of Health (HMSO, 1994), while Values of the PUFA/SFA ratio of two groups were 0.60 and 0.74 higher than the minimum value (0.45) recommended by HMSO. Thus the muscle of farmed and wild P. japonicus are both healthy and safe, and the the muscle of wild P. japonicus is more beneficial to human health.
