Eugene Metakovsky Intimate Facts about Wheat Grain Storage Proteins, Gliadins and Glutenins

Annotation

Bread and other products made of wheat dough are the basis of nutrition for a significant part of the world's population. The international wheat science community have long been concentrated on the study of complex processes leading from wheat grain to a loaf of bread. A huge amount of data has been accumulated during this struggle for improving bread quality. This book details actual successes and problems of wheat storage-protein genetics, and discusses discrepancies, doubts and confusions of some recent experimental data. As such, it will be beneficial not only for advanced students interested in plant genetics, but also for wheat scientists and breeders.
