Quality of triticale cultivars suitable for growing and bread-making in northern conditions

HMW glutenin subunit composition, which was used to predict the baking quality, was determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate- polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Seven different alleles were revealed in the set of 12 triticale cultivars. The best cultivars had HMW glutenin subunits 2∗ encoded by the Glu-A1 locus, 7+26 and 7+19 encoded by the Glu-B1 locus.
