Synopsis

Improve Wheat Quality Through Science and Breeding
This foundational study explains how wheat quality for bread making can be influenced by plant science. It surveys factors like kernel development, seed size, nitrogen content, and how these traits are inherited. The work presents experiments and results that help readers understand what breeders face when aiming to raise both quality and yield.

Two concise sections summarize methods and findings, showing how different growing conditions, seed weights, and nitrogen content affect the grain. The emphasis is on practical insights from controlled experiments and how they might guide future breeding strategies.

• How kernel development and composition change during growth


• How seed weight and specific gravity relate to protein content


• How light versus heavy seed affects nitrogen and yield per acre


• How these factors may translate into better bread-making wheat

Ideal for readers of agricultural science and plant breeding who want a clear, data-driven view of quality traits in wheat and their practical implications for breeding programs.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
