The dependence of total content of antioxidants in grain of barley and oats of Siberian selection from growing conditions

The main ingredients of functional food herbal products in addition to vitamins and food fibers in-clude antioxidants, which are substances that can prevent free radical oxidation of organic com-pounds with various forms of oxygen. The aim of this work was to analyze the impact of genotype and cultivation conditions on the total content of antioxidants in barley grain and oats. As objects of the study were 11 samples of hulled and hull-less spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), and 10 sam-ples of oats (Avena sativa L.) Siberian breeding grown for bare farrow predecessor on the territory of the state variety plot Beysky (Republic of Kha-kassia) and experimental farm “Minino” SRE KRIAS SB RAAS (Krasnoyarsk region) in 2013-2015. The study of the total content of antioxidants in the grain of both crops was performed using the instrument "Color Yauza-01-AA". The result recorded higher values of total content of antioxidants in the grain of barley compared to oats. Statistically significant change the value of this biochemical parameter for the genotypes and paragraphs exploring how each of the studied cereal. Using two-factor analysis of variance derived that the total antioxidant content in grain of oats and barley grown in 2015, in the Emelyanovsky district of Krasnoyarsk region and Beysky district of the Republic of Khakassia, to a greater extent was determined by the genotype, the degree of influence were "item" and the interaction "point × genotype". Grain of barley and oats grown in the conditions of Siberia are suggested to be used as ingredients of the functional foodstuff rich with antioxidants in future.
