13TSB_N4L2CRD: High Fibre Wheat for Healthier White Bread

这个由工业界主导的项目的目的是增加一般人口对可溶性膳食纤维的摄入量，为白面包的消费者提供终身营养，其中许多是儿童。今天，几乎55%的面包都是纤维含量极低的白面包，这也是大多数人纤维摄入量低的部分原因。该项目将使用已经确定的高纤维小麦来开发适合英国条件的小麦品种，并具有良好的面包制作质量。参与该项目的植物育种公司KWS将与学术合作伙伴密切合作，使其成为可能，而M&S将调查由高可溶性纤维小麦制成的面包的质量和营养价值，并开发初步的市场机会。该项目涉及植物育种家、零售业、质量和遗传专家的独特组成，只有在TSB的财政支持下才能实现。

The aim of this industry led project is to increase the intake of soluble dietary fibre of the general population, providing Nutrition for Life to consumers of white bread, many of which are children. Today, almost 55% of all bread consumed is white bread with very little fibre content, and partly responsible for the low fibre intake by the majority of the population. This project will use already identified high fibre wheat to develop a wheat variety suitable for UK conditions with good bread making quality. KWS, the plant breeding company in the project, will work closely with academic partners to make this possible, while M&S will investigate the quality and nutritional value of bread made from high soluble fibre wheat, as well as exploit initial market opportunities. This project involving a unique composition of plant breeders, retail industry, quality and genetic experts will only be feasible with financial support from TSB.
