Abstract
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeders world-wide have used rye (Secale cereale L.) as a source of genes for agronomic improvement. The 1BL/1RS wheat-rye chromosomal translocation derived from the Russian cultivars ‘Kavkaz’ and ‘Aurora’ has been among the most common means of accessing useful rye genes. Unfortunately, deleterious wheat quality effects are often associated with the presence of 1RS. The identification of genetic backgrounds capable of alleviating the deleterious effects of 1RS is crucial for its continued exploitation. End-use quality parameters and flour protein composition, as measured by size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (SE-HPLC) of 373 wheat lines, derived from seven 1BL/1RS breeding populations, were analyzed. In all populations, significant quality defects were detected in 1BL/1RS lines compared to non-1RS sister lines. The detrimental quality effects resulted from alteration of the ratio of flour protein composition, especially, decreased glutenin concentrations, and increased salt-water soluble protein concentrations. The end-use quality of 1BL/1RS lines, however, was highly dependent on genetic backgrounds. The potential exists for improvement in quality through crosses between 1RS lines with high glutenin, or low salt-water soluble protein concentrations, and non-1RS lines with strong dough properties.
