Genetic variation and environmental stability of grain mineral nutrient concentrations in Triticum dicoccoides under five environments (2009, unknown): “Conversely, a growing number of reports indicate that wild and primitive wheat, such as Triticum monococum (einkorn wheat), Triticum dicoccon (emmer wheat) and Triticum dicoccoides (wild emmer wheat) are promising genetic resources for improving gain Zn and Fe concentrations (Cakmak et al. 1999, 200”
Iron and zinc grain density in common wheat grown in Central Asia (2007, result): “Considering independently spring and winter wheat, our findings support other findings, that it is possible to combine high-iron and high-zinc traits during breeding (Monasterio and Graham 2000; Cakmak et al. 2004).”
New hypotheses for the health-protective mechanisms of whole-grain cereals: what is beyond fibre? (2010, unknown): “Insoluble fibre (lignin included): 32·4–41·6 g/100 g – 557) Soluble fibre: 1·3–5·8 g/100 g((482,485,488,493,552,555)) Cellulose: 6·5–9·9 g/100 g – 561) Hemicellulose: 20·8–33·0 g/100 g – 561) Lignins: 2·2–9 g/100 g – 562) Fructans: 0·6–4·0 g/100 g((485,487,551)) Raffinose: 1·08–1·32 g/100 g((482,485”
Impacts of breeding on international collaborative wheat improvement (2006, background): “To combat human health problems associated with micronutrient deficiency among the world’s poorest people, genotypes with high levels of iron and zinc in the grain have been identified, through support from the Gates Foundation (Ortiz-Monasterio & Graham 2000).”
Biofortification strategies to increase grain zinc and iron concentrations in wheat (2014, unknown): “Researchers therefore focused on a more in-depth evaluation of wheat landraces (Monasterio and Graham, 2000) and, then, the secondary gene pool, i.”
Biofortification: Progress toward a more nourishing future (2013, background): “Initial research indicated that selection of lines with diverse vitamin and mineral profiles could be exploited for genetic improvement (Dwivedi et al., 2012; Gregorio, 2002; Ashok Kumar et al., 2012; Velu et al., 2012; Gomez-Becerra et al., 2010; Maziya-Dixon et al., 2000; Talukder et al., 2010; Ji”
Biofortification of crops for reducing malnutrition (2012, background): “In wheat, Ortiz-Monasterio and Graham (2000) found a four-or fivefold variation between the lowest and the highest iron and zinc concentrations in grains among several hundred accessions.”
Synthetic Hexaploids: Harnessing Species of the Primary Gene Pool for Wheat Improvement (2013, background): “The search for genetic resources that accumulate high levels of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) led to in-depth evaluation of wheat landraces (Monasterio and Graham 2000), tetraploid and diploid progenitors of hexaploid wheat for their enhanced micronutrient status (Cakmak et al. 1999; Genc and McDonald…”
