Abiotic Stress and Wheat Grain Quality: A Comprehensive Review

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

Wheat is a major cereal crop and is grown in a wide range of agroecologies across the world. Abiotic stresses such as heat stress (HS), drought, waterlogging (WL), salinity, ultraviolet radiation B (UVR-B), ozone (O3), mineral deficiency (MD), and heavy metal toxicity (HMT) are the major constraints to wheat cultivation in its present form or in the future amplified version under changing global climate. These stresses alone or in combined form can pose a serious intimidation on the grain quality and crop production. Maintaining wheat grain quality (WGQ) under stressful conditions is decisive for end-use functional properties. This review is presented with investigations and the existing understanding of the impact of these stresses on WGQ parameters such as starch granule (SG) size and composition, protein content (PC), glutenin (Gt)/gliadin (Gl) ratio, insoluble protein polymers, and free amino acid (AA) content. In the end, the efficacy of crop models (CM) for prediction of adverse impact of these stresses on WGQ is discussed in brief. Altogether, this review could facilitate in escalating our predictive capability to design better adaptation strategies according to climate changes.
