Development of wheat—Hordeum chilense Chromosome 2Hch Introgression Lines Potentially Useful for Improving Grain Quality Traits
(MDPI, 2019)The chromosome 2Hch of Hordeum chilense. has the potential to improve seed carotenoid content in wheat as it carries a set of endosperm carotenoid-related genes. We have obtained structural changes in chromosome 2Hch in a ... -
Genetic improvement of grain quality traits for CIMMYT semi-dwarf spring bread wheat varieties developed during 1965–2015: 50 years of breeding
(Elsevier, 2017)The Global Wheat Program, now managed by the CGIAR consortium and led by CIMMYT, initiated wheat breeding about 70 years ago in Mexico. Currently, the key objectives are to develop wheat cultivars that have superior grain ... -
Impact of different on-farm management practices on bread wheat quality: a case study in the Yaqui Valley
(Wiley, 2023)BACKGROUND: Continuous development of new wheat varieties is necessary to satisfy the demands of farmers, industry, and consumers. The evaluation of candidate genotypes for commercial release under different on-farm ... -
Milling, processing and end-use quality traits of CIMMYT spring bread wheat germplasm under drought and heat stress
(Elsevier, 2018)The CIMMYT wheat breeding program aims to develop bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes that have superior grain yields, disease resistance and stress tolerance, along with appropriate quality to satisfy all ... -
On-farm assessment of yield and quality traits in durum wheat
(Wiley, 2023)BACKGROUND: Durum wheat is key source of calories and nutrients for many regions of the world. Demand for it is predicted to increase. Further efforts are therefore needed to develop new cultivars adapted to different ... -
Processing and bread-making quality profile of Spanish spelt wheat
(MDPI, 2023)Spelt wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ssp. spelta Thell.) is an ancient wheat that has been widely cultivated for hundreds of years. Recently, this species has been neglected in most of Europe; however, the desire for more ... -
Response to heat stress and glutenins allelic variation effects on quality traits in durum wheat
(Wiley, 2024)In the context of climate change, high temperature is one of the main abiotic stresses hampering durum wheat production. Through the characterization of an international panel of 271 genotypes, this study investigates the ... -
Use of rapid tests to predict quality traits of CIMMYT bread wheat genotypes grown under different environments
(Elsevier, 2016)At the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT), wheat quality improvement is an important goal of breeding. CIMMYT scientists develop germplasm, which is diverse for quality traits intended for use in ... -
Use of wheat genetic resources to develop biofortified wheat with enhanced grain zinc and iron concentrations and desirable processing quality
(Elsevier, 2014)As a major cereal crop worldwide, wheat contributes on average one-fifth of the calories in the human diet and is the main source of protein and nutrients for much of the world's population. Wheat varieties with improved ... -
Wx Gene in Hordeum chilense: Chromosomal Location and Characterisation of the Allelic Variation in the Two Main Ecotypes of the Species
(MDPI, 2019)Starch, as the main grain component, has great importance in wheat quality, with the ratio between the two formed polymers, amylose and amylopectin, determining the starch properties. Granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI), ...
