Purpose – to elucidate the genetic potential of the diversity of cereals and grain legumes in terms of grain quality traits
popup.description2
The study object was field crop accessions from the collection of the NCPGRU. The purpose of the study was to reveal the potential of genetic diversity of cereals and grain legumes by grain quality parameters. Methods: general scientific and specific (laboratory assessments, statistical analyses). During the project implementation, soybean, chickpea, common bean, pea, and lentil accessions were selected as sources of high protein content; corn and wheat accessions, including wild wheat species, specifically T. dicoccoides, T. timofeevii, T. persicum, T. polonicum, T. dicoccum, T. aethiopicum, and T. dicoccum with increased contents of unsaturated fatty acids in oil, were identified; rye accessions with consistently high falling numbers were detected; winter-hardy winter common wheat accessions and common wheat accessions with good bread-making scores were selected by protein markers; databases of electrophoretic patterns of storage proteins inherent in representatives of Aegilops species and winter triticale (× Triticosecale) were formed; references of high, medium and low starch content in rye grain were identified; and a scale for evaluating rye accessions for starch content in grain was developed. Description of storage protein patterns and individual biochemical traits contributes to the reliable identification of gene pool accessions. The relevance and priority of this research are determined by solving the problem of expanding and improving assortments of cereals and grain legumes for bread-making, pasta and other food industry sectors. The results allowed optimizing collection compositions, avoiding unnecessary duplication, contribute to the reliable identification of gene pool accessions and more complete use of the genetic potential of the cereal and grain legume collections diversity by grain quality characteristics.
