Effects of an increase in alpha-amylase and endoproteinase activities during germination on deterioration in the breadmaking quality of hard wheat were examined using 3 varieties with different gluten strengths: VictoriaINTA, Harunoakebono and Leader. Deterioration in the breadmaking quality of flour from wheat damaged by germination differed in relation to the gluten strength of each variety. VictoriaINTA, which has extra-strong gluten, was more tolerant to germination damage than the other varieties which contain strong gluten. The decrease in specific loaf vol. resulted from softening of the dough; this was observed as a decrease in mixing peak time and breaking force of the dough. alpha-Amylase and endoproteinase activities of the flours did not influence breadmaking quality, although a high correlation was found between endoproteinase activity of whole wheat flour and breadmaking quality. The main reason that use of flour from wheat damaged during germination decreases breadmaking quality is thought to be the presence of endoproteinase in the wheat grain, which causes partial gluten decomposition. Accordingly, it is suggested that the endoproteinase activity of whole wheat flour should be examined at harvest in order to estimate breadmaking quality.
