CABRERA ARREDONDO, Graciela et al. Industrial quality of Itapúa 80, Itapúa 85 and Canindé 21 wheat varieties. Investig. Agrar. [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.2, pp.95-100. ISSN 2305-0683.  https://doi.org/10.18004/investig.agrar.2016.diciembre.95-100.

The objective of the National Wheat Program, IPTA / CAPECO / INBIO is to identify new varieties with good agronomic characteristics, tolerance and / or resistance to disease and good industrial quality for the country´s different production areas. Three new varieties, ITAPUA 80, ITAPUA 85 and Canindé 21, released during 2013/15, were evaluated for their industrial quality through chemical and physical analysis including rheological properties of dough. Regarding their physical characteristics, the three varieties are within the ranges accepted by the industry, with hectoliter weight (PH) values between 76 and 79 kg / hl and Thousand Kernel Weight (TKW) values between 29.85 and 33.85 gs. Industrial quality was measured by protein assay, gluten quantity and quality, Falling Number index value and Alveography. The analyzes showed the excellent bakery quality of all three varieties, which were all deemed suitable for the industry both nationally and internationally. Among the three varieties, Canindé 21 was considered as the one with the best gluten for its properties of kneading resistance strength, which made it eligible to be supplied to the industry at premium prices.
