Abstract
Gluten protein makes 75–80% of the wheat protein and is of utmost importance because of its unique visco-elastic properties which have significant role in development of various food products especially the baked ones. The quality of gluten protein is determined by its subunit (glutenin and gliadin) number and composition. To determine the effect of amino acid tryptophan on gluten strength and other quality parameters, a set of 34 bread wheat genotypes consisting of 19 lines and 15 checks were estimated in the present study. As per the results obtained in this study, tryptophan, although present in low amounts in gluten, accorded positively with gluten strength. The study also highlights the relation between wheat grain protein, gluten strength and tryptophan content.
