Alteration in amino acid contents in different genotypes of bread wheat at different developmental stages
Murat Ardic
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine changes of amino acid levels in thirteen bread wheat genotypes during growth stages of wheat (tillering, flowering, maturity stages and seeds) in growing periods of 2018-2019. Results suggest that important variations and differences occurred among bread wheat genotypes and their growing stages. The amino acid content was found as higher in tillering and flowering, lower in maturity stage. Once changes in amino acid levels increase/ decrease depending upon biochemical activities and crop growth stages, genotypic capacity and features significantly control of amino acid levels in bread wheat. Amino acid levels are higher until the flowering period than during the maturation period indicates that amino acids are of vital importance in plant development. Especially amino acids responsible for growth and development are very important in bread wheat. In addition, differences between genotypes and plant growth stages indicate that amino acids are highly affected by the genotype x environment interaction.
