Abstract

17 var. of Indian aestivum wheats were evaluated. The range of values for some important quality attributes of white flour (maida) were: milling yield, 60.5-72.6%; Kent-Jones colour grade, 5.1-7.9; total ash, 0.44-0.66%; protein (N x 5.7), 7.2-12.0%; wet gluten, 19.2-36.3%; diastatic activity, 133-351 units; damaged starch, 6.2-12.1%; sedimentation value, 19.0-37.3 ml; farinograph water absorption, 54.0-70.8%; and loaf vol., 400-585 ml. Variety Raj-827 gave the highest milling yield of 72.6%. Excellent bread as well as chapatti could be prepared from Raj-842 whereas D-134 and DGRP-LB gave good bread and excellent chapattis. Inspite of its excellent chapatti making quality, Kalyan Sona gave poor bread. K-68, WG-377, Raj-857 and Raj-821 also gave excellent chapattis. Farinograph water absorption for chapatti dough ranged between 46.1 and 57.0% and had no correlation with chapatti making quality of wheat var.
