Gliadins are the most abundant component of the seed storage proteins in cereals and, in combination with glutenins, are important for the bread-making quality of wheat. They are divided into four subfamilies, the α-, β-, γ-, and ω-gliadins, depending on their electrophoresis pattern, chromosomal location, and DNA and protein structures. Using a PCR-based strategy we isolated and sequenced an ω-gliadin sequence. We also determined the chromosomal subarm location of this sequence using wheat aneuploids and deletion lines. The gene is 1858 bp long and contains a coding sequence 1248 bp in length. Like all other gliadin gene families characterized in cereals, the ω-gliadin gene described here had characteristic features including two repeated sequences 300 bp upstream of the start codon. At the DNA level, the gene had a high degree of similarity to the ω-secalin and C-hordein genes of rye and barley, but exhibited much less homology to the α- and β-gliadin gene families. In terms of the deduced amino acid sequence, this gene has about 80 and 70% similarity to the ω-secalin and C-hordein genes, respectively, and possesses all the features reported for other gliadin gene families. The ω-gliadin gene has about 30 repeats of the core consensus sequences PQQPX and XQQPQQX, twice as many as other gliadin gene families. Southern blotting and PCR analysis with aneuploid and deletion lines for the short arm of chromosome 1A showed that the ω-gliadin was located on the distal 25% of the short arm of chromosome 1A. By comparison of PCR and A-PAGE profiles for deletion stocks, its genomic location must be at a different locus from gli-A1a in 'Chinese Spring'.Key words: glutenin, omega gliadin, storage protein, Triticum aestivum, secalin.

The aim of this investigation was to incorporate mustard flour into bread in order to improve its quality. For this purpose, wheat flour 650 type for bread making was replaced with mustard seed flour at the level of 5, 7 and 10%. Bread quality through physico-chemical and sensory characteristics was analyzed and compared to those of bread without mustard flour. The protein content of mustard flour bread increased with 5.03% as a result of mustard flour incorporation, coupled with an increase in ash content. Sensory evaluation results revealed that the sample containing 7% mustard flour scored highest in most of the attributes including overall acceptability. The study reveals that incorporation of 7% mustard flour gave desirable results in terms of phisyco-chemical and sensory caracteristics of mustard flour fortified bread.

Bread-making quality is a crucial trait for wheat and triticale breeding. Several genes significantly influence these characteristics, including glutenin genes and the wheat bread-making (wbm) gene. World wheat collection screening showed that only a few percent of cultivars carry the valuable wbm variant, providing a useful source for wheat breeding. In contrast, no such analysis has been performed for triticale (wheat (AABB genome) × rye (RR) amphidiploid) collections. Despite the importance of the wbm gene, information about its origin and genomic organization is lacking. Here, using modern genomic resources available for wheat and its relatives, as well as PCR screening, we aimed to examine the evolution of the wbm gene and its appearance in the triticale genotype collection. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the wheat Chinese Spring genome does not have the wbm gene but instead possesses the orthologous gene, called wbm-like located on chromosome 7A. The analysis of upstream and downstream regions revealed the insertion of LINE1 (Long Interspersed Nuclear Elements) retrotransposons and Mutator DNA transposon in close vicinity to wbm-like. Comparative analysis of the wbm-like region in wheat genotypes and closely related species showed low similarity between the wbm locus and other sequences, suggesting that wbm originated via introgression from unknown species. PCR markers were developed to distinguish wbm and wbm-like sequences, and triticale collection was screened resulting in the detection of three genotypes carrying wbm-specific introgression, providing a useful source for triticale breeding programs.

The aim of this work was to compare the nutritional characteristics of wheat bread with the bread produced of wheat flour supplemented with quinoa and buckwheat seeds. Bread making properties of these blends were analyzed in order to investigate their ability to make moulded bread. Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Will.) and buckwheat seeds were grown in the vicinity of Belgrade, Serbia. The addition of pseudocereal seeds (at levels of 30% and 40%) and a selected technological process, which included hydrothermal preparation of supplements, resulted with a valuable effect on nutritive value of breads. In comparison with the wheat bread that was used as control sample, the protein increase of 2% and the increase of crude fiber content at around 0.5% in 30% supplemented breads were registered. Furthermore, the incorporation of both seeds mixture at the level of 40%, increased the content of protein for 2.5% and fiber content for 0.4%. In regard to the starch, fat, and ash contents there were no major differences. The investigated breads were nutritionally superior to the wheat bread. Chemical composition of the selected seeds was also investigated. The results showed that the blends containing either 30% or 40% of selected seeds expressed high potential for the production of molded breads, as new baking products with enhanced nutritional composition. The applied technological procedure was modified in such way that for all blended combination of supplements it changed rheological properties of dough. Furthermore, it resulted in a good volume of breads with excellent sensory properties of aroma-odor and taste.

AbstractThe effect of brewers’ spent grain addition on the thermo-mechanical properties of white and wholemeal wheat flour was investigated. The possibility to improve bread quality and antioxidant properties by using the sourdough fermentation was also considered. Increasing the level of brewers’ spent grain caused the increase of water absorption from 58.1 to 65.2% and from 63.8 to 73.6% in case of white and wholemeal flour, respectively. Similarly, the dough development time increased from 1.27 to 6.18 min, and from 3.37 to 5.42 min. Starch gelatinization significantly increased (p<0.05), while the stability of starch gel, starch retrogradation, and cooking setback significantly decreased (p<0.05) with the level of brewers’ spent grain. The specific volume of the wheat bread significantly decreased (p<0.05) and crumb hardness increased (p<0.05) by incorporation of brewers’ spent grain. Sourdough addition improved bread characteristics and the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of the bread with brewers’ spent grain.
