Morphological, Thermal and Physicochemical Properties of Starches from Squash (Cucurbita maxima) and Pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata)
The properties of starches isolated from two squash cultivars (Cucurbita maxima) were studied and compared with those of two pumpkin cultivars (Cucurbita moschata) and one normal potato cultivar. The amylose content of pumpkin and squash starches ranged from 16.18% to 21.29%. The pumpkin and squash starches appeared as a mixture of spherical, polyhedral and dome shaped granules. The pumpkin and...
متن کاملPhysicochemical properties of hydrolysates from enzymatic hydrolysis of pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) protein meal
Pumpkin protein meal was hydrolysed by alcalase, flavourzyme, protamex and neutrase. Physicochemical characteristics were evaluated by previously published methods using pumpkin protein hydrolysates (PPHs) and pumpkin protein meal (PPM) as a control. Hydrolysis had significantly changed the physicochemical characteristics of protein meal and its functionality as well. Different enzymes had diff...
متن کاملMutagenesis of squash (Cucurbita moschata) glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) to produce an enzyme with altered substrate selectivity.
In an attempt to rationalize the relationship between structure and substrate selectivity of glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT, 1AT, EC 2.3.1.15) we have cloned a number of cDNAs into the pET overexpression system using a PCR-based approach. Following assay of the recombinant enzyme we noted that the substrate selectivity of the squash (Cucurbita moschata) enzyme had altered dramatical...
متن کاملthe possibility of interspecific hybridization between summer squash (cucurbita pepo) and pumpkin (c. moschata)
interspecific hybridization occurs among cucurbia species it is commonly used for grafting, yield increasing and production of pest resistant rootstocks. in the present research probability of interspecies hybrid generation among seven lines of cucurbita pepo (p1, p4, p5, p6, p10, p22, p25) and six lines of cucurbita moschata (mo3, mo5, mo6, mo9, mo11, mo12) were investigated. after crossing of...
متن کاملInheritance Studies of the Interspecific Cross of the Cucurbita Lundelliana Complex X Cucurbita Moschata
Two populations of Cucurbita were studied for the inheritance of corolla pigments. Flowers from them were collected--classified as orange, yellow, or cream--and analyzed for total carotenoid pigments. In most cases, chemical analysis for total pigments agreed with observed color designations. The ? 2 and backcross results fitted the expected 1:2:1 and 1:1 segregations, respectively, found in th...
