The frequency and mechanisms of four modes of alpha-amylase enzyme accumulation in U.K. wheat, retained pericarp alpha-amylase activity (RPAA), pre-maturity alpha-amylase activity (PMAA), prematurity sprouting (PrMS) and post-maturity-sprouting (PoMS), were investigated in field and laboratory experiments. Of 56 cultivar site year combinations four model cultivars grown at up to Four sites From 1994-1997, enzyme activity was detected in 32 cases, in 23 cases sufficient to reduce Hagberg falling number (the usual industry measure of alpha-amylase) below the commercial criterion (250 s). The frequency of occurrence of different modes of enzyme accumulation was in the order PoMS > PMAA > PrMS > RPAA. Both PMAA and PrMS were more common than expected and the most usual pattern was for alpha-amylase to accumulate by several modes. Although green grains are rejected as impurities, study of grain colour in relation to pericarp alpha-amylase activity showed that the enzyme could persist in non-green grains in levels sufficient to affect the Hagberg value. Two Factors thought to promote PMAA. grain drying rate and transient changes in temperature in early development, were studied in the field and controlled environment cabinets. No significant difference uas found in grain drying rare between samples where PMAA was or was not identified. However, out of 19 transfers from a cool (16/10 degreesC) to a warm (26/20 degreesC) temperature regime, six led to significant increases in PMAA. No transfers after 45% grain moisture increased PMAA. PrMS occurred as early as 67% grain moisture and susceptibility usually increased with stage of development being greatest in the grain dough stage. PrMS susceptibility varied with cultivar (in the same order as PoMS sensitivity) and M as affected by environmental factors. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
