Abstract
The HMW glutenin subunit and gliadin compositions of 57 German-grown varieties of wheat were determined by 1D- and 2D-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, respectively. A Glu-1 quality score was calculated for each variety based on previously observed associations between individual HMW glutenin subuints and SDS-sedimentation volume. The results indicated that approximately 30% of the variation in bread-making quality of the varieties was accounted for by variation in the Glu-1 quality score, and that this proportion was raised to 54 % if the presence or absence of chromosome 1BL.1RS was taken into account. It was also shown that allelic variation at the Gli-1 and Gli-2 loci had a relatively minor effect on quality; indeed, the only significant effect was associated with variation at Glu-1, and the influence of this locus was principally due to the deterimental effect of 1BL.1RS.
