Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico Prediction and Functional Characterization of Genes Related to Abiotic and Biotic Stresses in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum)Sukhdeep Kaur, Satendra Singh, Gitanjali Tandon et al.Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is second largest grown legumes worldwide contributing 75% of total pulse production. It is a cool season legume crop and grown in tropical and subtropical areas. Due to drastic climatic changes, chickpea suffers from many biotic (blight and wilt) and abiotic (salinity, drought, cold) stresses that directly impact the growth and yield. In our study, we … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 25 Sep 2017 · 14,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Phosphorus Application and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Inoculation on the Growth of American Jointvetch and Greenleaf DesmodiumManabu Tobisa, Yoshinori UchidaThis study examined the growth and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) colonization of two tropical forage legumes, namely, American jointvetch (Aj) and Greenleaf desmodium (Gd), at two phosphate application rates (0 or 10 g P m-2 yr-1; -P or +P), with or without AM (+AM or -AM) in a pot experiment. AM inoculation and P application promoted the growth of both species. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2017 · 8,148 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Nutritional Quality of Wheat (Triticum aestivum) by Metabolic Engineering of Isoflavone PathwayAhmed Mohamed El-Shehawi, Abdelmegid Ibrahim Fahmi, Mona Mohamed Elseehy, Hesham Ahmed NagatyIsoflavones are large group of secondary metabolites produced in legumes such as soybeans. They have essential biological functions as nutraceutical and health functions for human. They are involved in plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing organisms and plant competition (allelopathy). In this report, isoflavonoids were expressed in wheat (Triticum aestivum) via introducing the key enzymes … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Compositions and Resistant Starch Content in Starchy FoodsAnuchita MoongngarmResistant Starch (RS) is one of nature’s most interesting bioactive compounds. There is a wide variety of starchy food plants in Thailand that are good sources of RS, but they have not been well studied. As such, this study was carried out to investigate the potential food source of RS. Twenty-two promising food plants were selected. The samples included (1) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Mar 2013 · 15,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgro-Process Intensification through Synthetic Rhizosphere Media for Nitrogen Fixation and Yield Enhancement in PlantsG. Akay, D. R. BurkeProblem statement: In order to combat global warming and the emerging Food, Energy and Water shortages (FEWs), several approaches have been adopted, including genetic engineering and farming practices. Biomass based energy technology will further stress food and water resources and hence novel holistic approaches to FEWs should be designed. Approach: A novel technique (Agro-Process Intensification, A-PI) which simultaneously addresses FEWs … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 15 Mar 2012 · 8,599 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgricultural Resources Allocation and Field Crops CompetitionElgilany Ahmed, Jamalludin Sulaiman, Saidatulakmal MohdProblem statement: Field crops are considered as essential cash and food crops produced in River Nile State (RNS) of North Sudan include cereal, food-legumes, vegetables and fodders beside the perennial crops. They are the main source of household income and regarded as a major part of the daily diet for the Sudanese. In other words they play an important role … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 7,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtrusion of Peas (Pisum sativum L.): Effects on the Apparent Metabolisable Energy and Ileal Nutrient Digestibility of BroilersCatootjie L. Nalle, Ganesharanee Ravindran, Velmurugu RavindranProblem statement: The potential feeding values of grain legumes, such as peas (Pisum sativum), are limited because of the presence of anti-nutritional factors. In particular, protease inhibitors are of interest, but these can be readily destroyed by thermal treatments. In the present study, the influence of extrusion on the chemical composition and nutritive value of peas was evaluated. Approach: Two … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2011 · 8,415 accessesView PDFCite
