With about 17 million hectares under culti vati on, the world annual grain yield exceeds 35 million tons with wide variati on caused mainly by drought and heat stresses. Although the intense breeding acti vity conducted over the last century had led to the constant release of leading culti vars, durum grain yield per hectare is lower than bread wheat. The ability of durum breeders to use existi ng geneti c variati on and to identi fy agronomically important genes will open new approaches for improving quanti ty and quality of durum wheat. The recent advances and integrati on of molecular markers, plant genomics and biotechnology with classical breeding methodology has provided the basis for molecular durum breeding. Cereal genomics and technologies advances for genome-wide analysis are contributi ng to the accelerati on of gene discovery and implementati on in practi cal durum breeding programs. The objecti ve of this arti cle is to briefl y review historical development of durum breeding and factors infl uencing the applicati ons of molecular plant breeding in durum improvement programs.

  • Review Paper the Role of Genetic, Agronomic and Environmental
    1 Review Paper 2 The Role of Genetic, Agronomic and Environmental Factors on Grain Protein Content of 3 Tetraploid Wheat (Triticum turgidum L.) 4 5 6 Abstract 7 For commercial production of tetraploid wheat, grain protein content is considered very 8 important. As the grain received great market attention due to protein premium price paid for 9 farmers, mainly above 13% that will give about 12% of protein in the milled semolina. However, 10 this review paper stated that grain protein content of tetraploid wheat is sensitive to environmental 11 conditions pertaining before and during grain filling, crop genetics and cultural practices. This 12 and associated problems universally calls agronomic based alternative solution to ameliorate 13 protein concentration in durum wheat grain. This could be modified through manipulating seeding 14 rates, selection crop varieties, adjusting nitrogen amount and fertilization time and sowing date. 15 The decision of time of nitrogen application however should be made based on the interest of the 16 farmers. If the interest gears towards grain yield, apply nitrogen early in the season and apply the 17 fertilizer later i.e. heading for better protein concentration. 18 Keywords: seeding rate, tillage, nitrogen application, temperature, Genotype, Protein 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 1. Introduction 31 The tetraploid or “durum wheat” (Triticum turgidum L.) is the second most important Triticum 32 species being cultivated throughout the world next to bread wheat for human consumption and 33 commercial production as well (Peńa et al., 2002). The commercial value and quality of durum 34 wheat for pasta and macaroni manufacturing is directly related with its grain protein and gluten 35 content.

  • RCED-95-28 Wheat Pricing: Information on Transition to New
    United States General Accounting Office GAO Report to Congressional Requesters December 1994 WHEAT PRICING Information on Transition to New Tests for Protein GAO/RCED-95-28 United States General Accounting Office GAO Washington, D.C. 20548 Resources, Community, and Economic Development Division B-258389 December 8, 1994 Congressional Requesters Protein levels in wheat are an important factor in determining hard red spring (HRS) wheat prices, particularly for HRS wheat grown in Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Higher protein commands higher prices in the market. Therefore, the accuracy and reliability of protein testing is of primary importance to these areas and to those who buy and sell high-protein wheat. In 1993, concerns were raised that a new technology for estimating the protein levels of wheat—the Near Infrared Transmittance (NIRT) technology—was producing estimates that were lower than those provided by an older technology. This new technology was introduced by the Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS)—an agency in the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) that provides official inspections of grain. Inspections by laboratories other than those supervised by FGIS are known as unofficial inspections. While official inspections must meet FGIS’ standards and are used for both domestic and export sales, they are generally required for export sales. In contrast, unofficial inspections are not subject to FGIS’ standards. Unofficial inspectors can range from “in-house” graders at grain elevators and processing plants to third-party inspection agencies. Because of the above concerns, you asked us to (1) describe the pricing situation for wheat in 1993, (2) evaluate FGIS’ introduction of the NIRT technology, (3) analyze the economic impact of the NIRT technology on segments of the industry, and (4) describe recent efforts to standardize unofficial protein testing of wheat.

  • Enhancing the Quality of U.S. Grain for International Trade
    Enhancing the Quality of U.S. Grain for International Trade February 1989 NTIS order #PB89-187199 ——— Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Enhancing the Quality of U.S. Grain for International Trade, OTA-F-399 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, February 1989). Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 88-600592 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402-9325 (order form can be found in the back of this report) American agriculture, long the sector of the economy considered the most productive and competitive in the world, began to show signs of declining interna- tional competitiveness in the early 1980s. Many reasons have been given for this, including the problems of the quality of U.S. grain. The quality issue is receiving renewed attention in the current world buyers’ market for grain, Some are con- cerned that as the influence of important economic variables such as the strength of the dollar and the extent of agricultural price support cause U.S. exports to be- come more price-competitive, opportunities to increase exports may be hampered by buyers’ qualms about U.S. grain quality. Complaints of overseas buyers about low-quality U.S. grain receive widespread attention. Buyers protest that they receive dirty, molded, or infested grain, or that characteristics contracted for, such as a certain protein level, were not met. Ex- porters argue that foreign buyers are using quality complaints to bargain for lower prices. Farmers and many Members of Congress point to loss of market share to prove the importance of quality.
