An investigation into the variability of extract viscosity of wheat-relationship with the content of non-starch-polysaccharide fractions and metabolisable energy for broiler chickens.

Abstract excerpt

The in vitro extract-viscosity and the content of non-starch-polysaccharides were investigated in 34 defined wheat varieties grown at 5 locations each. Both, wheat genotype as well as growing location clearly influenced the viscosity of soluble extract from wheat. Furthermore, the content of non-starch-polysaccharides (soluble/total) and pentosans (soluble/total) were determined in 13 wheat varieties each grown...
