QTL mapping for adult-plant resistance to powdery mildew in bread wheat
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2006)
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, is a major wheat disease in China. Use of adult-plant resistance is an effective method to develop wheat cultivars with durable resistance to powdery mildew. In ...

Distribution of grain hardness and puroindoline alleles in landraces, historical and current wheats in Shandong province
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2007)
Studies on the grain hardness and puroindolines alleles in wheat cultivars released in different historical periods, are helpful for breeding wheat cultivar with optimal endosperm texture. In the present study, 523 accessions ...
Article
Development of a fingerprinting database and assembling an SSR reference kit for genetic diversity analysis of wheat
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2006)
Understanding of the current and expanded genetic diversity is very important for raising the yield of wheat. Genetic diversity based on molecular markers has been studied in plants for over thirty decades. SSR is the ...

Relationship between soft wheat quality traits and cookie quality parameters
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2005)
Development of soft wheat cultivars is a major breeding objective in the Yangtze and Southwestern winter wheat regions. However, the evaluation method and selection parameters for cookie quality is not available in China, ...

Effect of 1BL/1RS translocation on grain quality and noodle quality in bread wheat
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2004)
Totally, 152 wheat cultivars from China, Australia, and USA, were used as to identify the presence of 1BL/1RS translocation, and for the composition of IIMW and LMW glutenin subunits. Seventy-eight cultivars were grown at ...

Mapping QTLs for polyphenol oxidase activity in a DH population from common wheat
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2005)
The polyphenol oxidase ( PPO) activity is a major factor to cause an undesirable brown discoloration of wheat based end products during processing or storage. A double haploid (DH) population with 71 lines derived from ...
Article
Measurement of wheat hardness by near infrared transmittance spectroscopy
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2004)
583 samples of wheat cultivars from major wheat production area collected in 2001 and 2002 seasons were used to measure kernel hardness by near infrared transmittance (NIT) spectroscopy. Two algorithms, i.e. partial least ...
Article
Effect of water addition on northern style Chinese steamed bread processing quality
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2005)
The amount of water addition used in making Chinese steamed bread (CSB) plays an important role in determination of CSB quality. Six flours differing in gluten strength and five water addition (WA) levels ranging from 70 ...
Article
Effect of HMW and LMW glutenin subunits and presence of 1BL/1RS translocation on quality traits in spring wheat
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2005)
The composition of high molecular weight glutenin subunits ( HMW2GS) and low molecular weight glutenin subunits (LMW2GS) , and the presence or absence of 1BLΠ1RS translocation play an important role in determination of ...
Article
Flour particle size distribution in Chinese winter wheat and measurement by near infrared spectroscopy
(Institute of Crop Sciences, 2005)
Flour particle size is an important quality parameter which has a significant effect on food processing. The objective of this study is to investigate the distribution of flour particle size in Chinese winter wheat cultivars ...
