Effect of wheat bug (Eurygaster integriceps) damage on quality of a wheat variety grown in Turkey
1998
Karababa, E. | Ozan, A.N.
Wheat bug (Eurygaster integriceps) damaged samples of a bread wheat variety (Ankara 093/44) were investigated. The damaged kernels were separated and added back to the sound wheat in different proportions (1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 9% and 15%). These damaged samples were compared with undamaged sample (Control). A significant reduction in physical properties of wheat and protein quality parameters such as sedimentation value, gluten content, farinograph peak time, stability time and mixing tolerance index; alveograph P, L and W values of damaged flour samples were observed due to the increasing damaged kernel proportions. Wheat samples which have more than 5% bug damaged kernels showed significantly low-quality properties. The highly bug-damaged kernel samples were not available for making good-quality bread.
