Abstract
A near-isogenic line (NIL) of the Indian wheat variety HD2733, carrying an introgressed Lr24/Sr24 genomic region was used for studying the effect of this introgression on quality traits. Data on the grain yield and 21 quality traits were recorded in this NIL and its recurrent parent (RP), both of which were grown in a randomized block design for two consecutive years. The statistical analysis revealed that grain yield was on par between the NIL and the RP. The NIL and its RP were both hard grained but the NIL showed a grain hardness index reduced by 9.7%. However, quality traits such as grain weight, protein content, sedimentation value, gluten traits, and solvent retention capacity were significantly higher in the NIL. The NIL also showed an increase in dough stability, a lower degree of softening and a higher farinograph quality number. These results indicated that the NIL could be utilized for hard grain, high protein and strong gluten-based products. An overall improvement in the quality of the NIL over its recurrent parent and without any yield penalty suggests that the Lr24/Sr24 genomic region could be gainfully utilized in wheat breeding for improving the industrial quality of wheat without jeopardising grain yield. The authors suggest that the improved quality of the NIL may be due to the genomic segment carried along with the Lr24/Sr24 genes.
