This invention relates generally to certain improved white wheat varieties, and grain products comprising said improved white wheat varieties. In certain embodiments, wheat varieties are provided that exhibit advantageous traits of white coloration, high gluten strength, and/or reduced bitterness. In further embodiments, the invention is directed toward identity-preserved milled grain products such as wheat flour manufactured substantially only from certain white wheat varieties, identity-preserved grain intermediate products such as milled bran flours manufactured substantially only from certain white wheat varieties, and to methods of preparation of each. In certain embodiments, such milled identity-preserved grain products require less sugar, less gluten, and/or reduced refining and bleaching during their use, thereby decreasing the cost of food production and providing certain advantageous characteristics. |
