Previous size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (SEHPLC) studies of hard red spring (HRS) wheat proteins reported correlations of amounts of certain gliadin and glutenin fractions with general score, a quality descriptor based on loaf volume, mixing time, and other parameters. We now extended these studies to 12 hard red winter (HRW) wheats, each grown at six Midwestern locations. Gliadin and reduced glutenin fractions were isolated and fractionated by SE-HPLC. Amounts of fractions corresponding to specific molecular weight (MW) ranges, determined by integrating peaks from SE-HPLC elution profiles, were statistically correlated with various baking quality parameters. Amounts of one fraction rich in γ-gliadins correlated well with loaf volume; correlations were better than found previously for HRS wheats. Correlations adjusted for overall protein (partial correlations) were >0.5 for 10 of the 12 samples, and >0.84 for six samples when estimated among samples, among locations, among ... |
