Variation in Malting Quality and Heat Resistance in the Malting Barley Variety "Alexis"

Birthe Møller, Jose Luis Molina-Cano and Lars Munck

Abstract

J. Inst. Brew. 108(3), 294–302, 2002 In earlier studies concerning vigour, where subsamples are heattreated before germination there was found heat-sensitive as well as heat-resistant barley samples. The vigour model developed by Ellis and Roberts and further developed at Carlsberg, could only describe the heat-sensitive barleys. Seventeen samples of the “Alexis” variety grown widely in Europe were collected from the EBC trials in 1994 in order to see if heat resistance in barley was influenced by different growing conditions. We found both heat-sensitive samples following the vigour model as well as pronounced heat-resistant samples, but these were not divided according to growing conditions. The germination curves dependent on heat treatment and germination time were evaluated by Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Heat-resistant barley samples could be differentiated from heat-sensitive samples already after ½ h of heat treatment at 68°C (12% moisture) and after 3 days of germination. The barley samples were analysed with regard to malting quality. The PCA evaluation of the data divided the samples according to growing location, mainly due to differences in protein and -glucan. However, the malting analyses could not describe the differences in heat resistance and sensitivity of the barleys. The biochemical background of the heat resistance found is discussed on the basis of literature. Our findings should give an experimental basis for exploiting a biochemical principle for heat resistance, which is formed during grain filling and consumed during storage and germination. Key words: Heat resistance, malting barley quality, principal component analysis, vigour. Load full article, 9 pages, 278 Kb, PDF file
