The influence of gamma radiation of wheat grain before sowing on some changes in the chemical and technological properties of the first generation of grain was investigated. Gamma radiation doses 0.05 kGy and 0.1 kGy caused statistically significant decrease in the falling number value as well as increase in crude protein content and SDS sedimentation index determined in grain. Also statistically significant increase of ash content in flour was noted. On the other hand wet gluten content and deliquesce as well as dough farinograph and extensigraph properties and baking quality were not significantly changed. However, bread baked from 0.1 kGy irradiated wheat grain received the highest score of loaf freshness. Gamma radiation of wheat seeds within the dose range used did not effected the first generation of wheat grain quality group estimated as E – elite wheat with very good baking quality.
