Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of low to moderate temperatures on gluten functionality and gluten protein composition. Four spring wheat cultivars were grown in climate chambers with three temperature regimes (day/night temperatures of 13/10, 18/15 and 23/20 °C) during grain filling.
Results: The temperature strongly influenced grain weight and protein content.
Article Synopsis
- The quality of wheat for breadmaking is crucial for the milling and baking industry and is influenced by both genetics and environmental conditions, including fertilizer application.* -
- This study focused on how different levels of nitrogen and sulfur fertilizers impact protein fractions in wheat, using techniques like 2D-electrophoresis and multivariate analysis.* -
- Results revealed that sulfur fertilization significantly altered protein abundance, especially highlighting that sulfur deficiency during growth dramatically affects protein composition, aiding in the development of wheat varieties with desired traits.*
