Milling Recovery

Lentil's produce pods usually containing two lens-shaped seeds. The seeds go through a number of processing steps to ready them for market known as milling. The milling recovery is the percentage of total milled seed recovered from the milling process and includes both split seeds and footballs (whole seeds having cotyledons attachaed). Milling efficiency is one indicator of Lentil quality along with colour, size and condition of split seeds or footballs (Lentil Production Manual, n.d.).

Milling Recovery was measured in percentage.Briefly, 30 g of uniformly dried seed samples were tempered overnight to 12.5% moisture and then the tempered seeds were dehulled with a grain testing mill (TM05, Satake Engineering Co., Hiroshima, Japan) fitted with a 36-mesh abrasive wheel rotating at 1100 rpm for 38 s (Wang, 2005). After dehulling, milled seed samples were passed through a series of slotted and round sieves to separate them into football and split fractions. All fractions were weighed, and the milling recovery was determined via the following formula: (Wmilled/Wsample) x 100 where Wmilled is the total weight of milled seeds (the weight of dehulled whole seeds plus the weight of dehulled split seeds in g), and Wsample is the weight of the seed sample. -Expert from (Subedi et al., 2018) Subedi, M., K.

Plant Genome 11:170092. doi:10.3835/plantgenome2017.10.0092 Replicates were then averaged per germplasm within a single site-year. The chart shows the traditional box plot with the kernel density estimation flanking it. Thus values in a wider section of the plot represent higher probability that members of the sampled germplasm collection will show that phenotype.
