Eight varieties of durum wheat - PDW 233, MACS-9, HI-8498, A-9-30-1, Raj 911, Raj 1555 having good quality characteristics and Bijaga yellow, NIDW-15 having poor quality characteristics have been characterized for their gluten components which govern their dough properties. The protein content in these varieties varied from 11.1% to 13.8% and the beta-carotene content from 4.1 to 5.85 ppm with maximum in PDW-233 and minimum in A-9-30-1. A 45 kD polypeptide was present only in the good quality durum varieties . PCR amplification of the genomic DNA from the selected varieties using LMW glutenin gene specific primers, however, showed no polymorphism between the good and poor quality varieties under study.
