Abstract

Wheat is very vital food eaten by around two billion people (36% of the world population). The wheat grain consists of carbohydrates, proteins, starch, fats, vitamins and minerals. The present study was conducted to estimate the total proteins, amino acids, total sugars and amylose contents from wheat cultivars of Balochistan. The samples of wheat under study were Pir-Sabak, NAR-421, Rasco, Sariab-92, Shahkar, Tijaban, Umeed, Zardana, Zarghoon, Zarlashta. The study showed that NAR-421, Rasco, Umeed and Sariab had higher proteins and free amino acids contents, so they are nutritionally best source of proteins. Whereas Zardana, Zarghoon, Rasco, Umeed and NAR-421 had higher contents of total sugars as well as amylose.
