Nutrient and antinutrient composition of Amaranthus muricatus.
The chemical and nutritional composition of the aerial parts of Amaranthus muricatus was assessed. This is a wild plant growing well in arid and poor soil, which are not suitable for cereals. The material under study was boiled, dried and ground and then evaluated for chemical, nutritional and antinutritional properties. Protein concentration of the amaranth flour was 15.74 g/100 g and total di...
متن کاملBurial increases seed longevity of two Artemisia tridentata (Asteraceae) subspecies.
PREMISE OF THE STUDY Seed longevity and persistence in soil seed banks may be especially important for population persistence in ecosystems where opportunities for seedling establishment and disturbance are unpredictable. The fire regime, an important driver of population dynamics in sagebrush steppe ecosystems, has been altered by exotic annual grass invasion. Soil seed banks may play an activ...
متن کاملChanges in Nutrient Content for β-Carotene, Iron and Zinc in Solar Dried and Stored Amaranthus cruentus Vegetables
There is increasing need to store the nutrient rich amaranth leaves which are plenty during the wet season for use in dry season, but there is little information on the micronutrient stability on storage of vegetables produced in dry areas meant to bridge the seasonal gap. The stored dry leaves can be utilized during dry season by mixing them with cereal flours for making porridge for children ...
متن کاملA role for seed storage proteins in Arabidopsis seed longevity
Proteomics approaches have been a useful tool for determining the biological roles and functions of individual proteins and identifying the molecular mechanisms that govern seed germination, vigour and viability in response to ageing. In this work the dry seed proteome of four Arabidopsis thaliana genotypes, that carry introgression fragments at the position of seed longevity quantitative trait...
متن کاملScreening of Less known Two Food Plants for Comparison of Nutrient Contents: Iranian and Indian Vegetables
Background: Greater consumption of fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cancers. The most important nutrients present in plants are carbohydrates, such as the starch and free sugars, oils, proteins, minerals, ascorbic acid, and the antioxidant phenols. Plants are an essential component of the universe. Human beings have used those as medic...
