Possible association between grain protein content and yield as influenced by harvest index and biological yield in selected hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crosses

Creator:

Costa, José María

Abstract:

Grain yield and grain protein are often negatively associated in wheat. When yield increases and grain protein decreases, there can be an adverse effect on the milling and baking quality if the desired end product is bread flour. It has been suggested that this inverse association is the result of...

Possible association of grain protein content, harvest index and biological yield in winter wheat populations

Creator:

Costa, Jose Maria

Abstract:

A negative relation between grain protein content and grain yield is frequently observed in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) i.e. as grain yield increases, grain protein decreases. It has been suggested that the inverse relation between grain yield and protein is in part the result of developing high yielding...
