Özet:

 

This study was carried out with the aim of determining the effects of wheatgrass lengths on antioxidant activity and total  phenolic content of wheatgrass belonging to different cultivars  Triticum spp.  in laboratory conditions in 2017. When the wheat  seedlings grown in plastic containers under soilless conditions reached three levels of wheatgrass length  5-6, 8-9, and 11-12 cm ,  the seedlings were cut from the root collar and dried in an oven. As a result of analysis of the dried material, it was found that the cut  lengths of wheatgrass significantly  P < 0.01  affected antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of wheatgrass. Ten wheat cultivars  belonging to Triticum monococcum L., T. durum L., and T. aestivum L. were used. Wheatgrass was cut at three lengths  5-6, 8-9, and  11-12 cm . It was found that the wheatgrass lengths had a significant  P < 0.01  effect on antioxidant and total phenolic content of  wheatgrass. In addition, in terms of these traits, the most suitable wheatgrass length for cutting changed depending on the wheat species  and also cultivars. The highest  P < 0.01  antioxidant activity and total phenolic content  TPC  were also determined at three wheatgrass  lengths in cultivar Sarıbaşak. The average values obtained from Sarıbaşak wheatgrass were 31.0% for DPPH-free radical scavenging  activity and 51.6 mg GAE-1 dry weight for TPC. The results of the analysis suggested that Sarıbaşak is the most promising cultivar in  terms of both antioxidant activity and TPC in wheatgrass.
