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...

Red 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...

Incompatibility in Autotetraploid Trifolium Pratense.

RIFOLI U M pratense L. is a highly self-incompatible species. An oppositional Tsystem of incompatibility has been established in this species by WILLIAMS and SILOW (1933). Artificially induced autopolyploids have been produced by LEVAN (1948) and FRANDSEN (1948) and selections have been carried out for several generations to improve their fertility. But no work has been done to study the effect...

Antioxidant profile of Trifolium pratense L.

In order to examine the antioxidant properties of five different extracts of Trifolium pratense L. (Leguminosae) leaves, various assays which measure free radical scavenging ability were carried out: 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, hydroxyl, superoxide anion and nitric oxide radical scavenger capacity tests and lipid peroxidation assay. In all of the tests, only the H2O and (to some extent) the ...
