Problems and possibilities of studying malting quality in barley using molecular genetic approaches by N. V. Trubacheeva, L. A. Pershina

“…The main parameters of malting quality (artificially germinated and dried barley grains) are malt extract, diastatic power, Kolbach index, viscosity, grain protein, wort β-glucan, free amino nitrogen, and soluble protein content. Most of these components are under the control of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and are affected by environmental conditions, which complicates their study and precise localization. …”
