Red Clover (Trifolium pratense)
Brief Background: Red clover is a legume, which like soy contains "phytoestrogens" (plant-based compounds structurally similar to estradiol, capable of binding to estrogen receptors as an agonist or antagonist). Red clover was traditionally used to treat asthma, pertussis, cancer, and gout. In modern times, isoflavone extracts of red clover are most often used to treat menopausal symptoms, as a...
متن کاملRed clover (Trifolium pratense).
Genetic modification of plants by the insertion of transgenes can be a powerful experimental approach to answer basic questions about gene product function. This technology can also be used to make improved crop varieties for use in the field. To apply this powerful tool to red clover, an important forage legume, a population of red clover with a high potential for regeneration in tissue cultur...
متن کاملeffect of cobalt application on seed production in red clover (trifolium pratense l.)
a field experiment involving red clover varieties k-39, k-17, una and viola was established on an acidic (phh2o 4.8) soil to evaluate the effects of foliar application of cobalt (a beneficial nutrient for efficient nitrogen fixation) on seed yield, and on seed yield components. the foliar spray of the crop was carried out using cobalt nitrate [co(no3)2] with the treatments: one application at t...
متن کاملIsoflavone content in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) as related to nitrogen and phosphorus application rate
Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) as a dietary supplement is currently used to treat menopausal symptoms because of its high concentrations of mildly estrogenic isoflavone. The application rate of N and P fertilizer has a huge influence on the isoflavone content (IC) in red clover. Trifolium pratense ‘Minshan’ is a unique plant resource in the alpine pasture region of northwest China. It plays...
متن کاملPolyphenol oxidase affects normal nodule development in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.)
Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) may have multiple functions in tissues depending on its cellular or tissue localization. Here we use PPO RNAi transformants of red clover (Trifolium pratense) to determine the role PPO plays in normal development of plants, and especially in N2-fixing nodules. In red clover, PPO was not essential for either growth or nodule production, or for nodule function in plants g...
