Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention provides wheat grain comprising (1,3;1,4)- -D-glucan (BG). The wheat grain is characterised by one or more of the following features; a BG content of at least 3% (w/w); the BG of the grain has a DP3/DP4 ratio between about 1.0 and about 2.0 or between about 1.0 and 2.3; and the BG is partially water soluble such that between 8.0% and about 25% or between about 10% and about 25% of the BG of the grain is water soluble. The present invention also provides uses of this grain. L'invention concerne un grain de blé qui contient des (1,3 ; 1,4)- -D-glucanes (BG). Le grain de blé est caractérisé en ce qu'il présente une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes : la teneur en BG est d'au moins 3 % (m/m) ; les BG du grain possèdent un rapport DP3/DP4 compris entre 1,0 et 2,0 environ ou entre 1,0 et 2,3 environ ; et les BG sont partiellement solubles dans l'eau de manière à ce qu'entre 8 et 25 % environ ou entre 10 et 25 % environ des BG du grain soient solubles dans l'eau. L'invention se rapporte également à des utilisations de ce grain.
