Study on Selection of Wheat Varieties for Noodle Production in Hebei Province and Factors Affecting the Processing Quality

[Objectives]To screen out the specific wheat varieties for noodle production in Hebei Province and analyze the factors affecting the processing quality of noodle.[Methods]The quality characteristics of grains,flour and noodle of major medium gluten wheat varieties in Hebei Province were detected and analyzed.[Results]The sensory score of noodle is significantly positively correlated with wet gluten content of medium gluten wheat flour,and extensile length,cohesiveness,resilience,elasticity,gumminess,chewiness and extensile distance of TPA of noodle,and is significantly negatively correlated with softening degree.TPA of noodle can indirectly reflect sensory quality of noodle.[Conclusions]Han 7086,Xingmai 4,Liangxing 66,Shiyou 17,Heng 5229 and Liangxing 99 are suitable for producing high-quality noodle,and they can be used as noodle-specific varieties for promoting in Hebei Province.

Cloning and Diversity Analysis of TaHKT2;2 in Hexaploid Wheat

In order to study the roles of members of HKT gene fanfily in wheat, TaHKT2 ; 2 was isolated by using homologous cloning strategy and screening genomic BAC library. TaHKT2; 2 genes were mapped on chromosomes 7A, 7B and 7D, named as TaHKT2; 2-7A, TaHKT2; 2-7B, and TaHKT2; 2-7D, respectively. TaHKT2 ; 2 and TaHKT2 ; 1 had the same genetic structure, composed of three exons and two introns, and formed a cluster with TaHKT2 ; 1 on the phylogenetic tree of plant HKT transporters. The coding sequences of TaHKT2 ; 2-7A, TaHKT2 ; 2-7B, and TaHKT2 ; 2-7D were 1 602, 1 602 and 1 596 bp long, respectively, but TaHKT2 ;2-7D cDNA sequence was not isolated by RT-PCR in eight wheat varieties. The natural diversity of TaHKT2 ;2 genes was analyzed by cloning and sequencing from 12 wheat varieties. The results showed that TaHKT2;2-7A was found to be more diverse than TaHKT2; 2-7B and TaHKT2; 2-7D. Only a few bases changed in the alleles of TaHKT2 ; 2 genes in wheat. No amino-acid natural variation lay in the P-loops of deduced protein sequences of all alleles of TaHKT2 ; 2 in 12 wheat varieties. The identity of coding sequences was nmch higher than that of 5＇ flanking regions of TaHKT2 ; 2 genes. TaHKT2 ; 2 nfight be selected over the comse of wheat domestication and belonged to domestication gene.

Low-temperature selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH_(3) based on MnO_(x)-CeO_(x)/ACFN

MnO_(x)-CeO_(x)/ACFN were prepared by the impregnation method and used as catalyst for selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH_(3) at 80℃-150℃.The catalyst was characterized by N_(2)-BET,scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR).The fraction of the mesopore and the oxygen functional groups on the surface of activated carbon fiber(ACF)increased after the treatment with nitric acid,which was favorable to improve the catalytic activities of MnO_(x)-CeO_(x)/ACFN.The experimental results show that the conversion of NO is nearly 100%in the range 100℃-150℃under the optimal preparation conditions of MnO_(x)-CeO_(x)/ACFN.In addition,the effects of a series of performance parameters,including initial NH3 concentration,NO concentration and O_(2) concentration,on the conversion of NO were studied.
