Barrie) during drying. Images were obtained using a conventional spin-echo pulse sequence on an 11.7 Tesla MR spectrometer equipped with a drying apparatus. Samples of intact kernels (with all three components: pericarp, embryo, and endosperm), mechanically scarified kernels, and kernels with the embryo-removed were dried at different temperatures to study the influence of kernel components on the internal moisture removal and distribution pattern. MR images were recorded at equal time intervals and moisture patterns were analyzed from the MR images of wheat kernels. Analysis of the images revealed that moisture loss from the seed parts differed significantly during drying and was dependent upon the grain components.
