Durum is the hardest of all wheats. Its density, combined with its high protein content and gluten strength, make durum the wheat of choice for producing premium pasta products. Pasta made from durum is firm with consistent cooking quality. Durum kernels are amber-colored and larger than those of other wheat classes. Also unique to durum is its yellow endosperm, which gives pasta its golden hue. 2, record 2, English, - durum%20wheat

El trigo candeal es el más duro de todos los trigos, por eso también se lo conoce como "trigo duro". Su densidad y su alto contenido de proteína, superior a los trigos de pan, así como la fuerza de su gluten, hacen que el trigo candeal sea el adecuado para la producción de pastas (fideos) de calidad [...] 5, record 2, Spanish, - trigo%20duro

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
No cereals are known anywhere to be immune to BYDV. Tolerant cultivars can live in a compromise with the virus in that they suffer much less or no yield loss, despite being infected, compared to susceptible cultivars. Cultivars can therefore be graded as tolerant, moderately tolerant, intermediate and susceptible according to their level of BYD tolerance as judged by their yield under BYDV infection. Cereal cultivars with at least moderate tolerance to the disease are now available or will be available in the near future. 5, record 3, English, - BYDV%20tolerant
