Wheat production in the Pacific Northwest consists
mainly of the soft white wheat market class. Over 80% of
this wheat is exported. In recent years there has been an
increase in soft white wheat production (due in a large part
to improvements in the yielding capabilities of the
genotypes grown...
Breadmaking quality is an important criterion in breeding and development of hard wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars. Improvements in N management are needed to produce superior quality grain and satisfy market demands for protein content. Field experiments with three hard red and two hard white spring wheat cultivars were conducted...
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...
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...
The lack of information regarding the inheritance of the duration and rate of
grain filling, and the possible relationship between grain fill and grain protein
content in wheat prompted this study.
Early maturing Chinese cultivars, 'AI Feng 2' and 'CB 83-52', and late
maturing cultivars adapted to Oregon, 'Stephens' and...
To remain competitive in the international marketplace,
soft white wheat cultivars grown in the Pacific Northwest
must have consistent and predictable flour properties
including kernel texture. As a consequence, there is a need
to develop wheat cultivars for specific end uses. Wheat
cultivars with very soft kernels are used largely...

Recommendations in this fertilizer guide apply to tillage fallow-winter wheat and chemical fallow-winter wheat cropping systems. This guide is one of a set of publications that address the nutritional requirements of nonirrigated cereal crops in north-central and eastern Oregon.
Recommendations for nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, chloride, and zinc are covered...
