(QPM) would increase the nutritional value of food and feed son et al., 2001). maize products. Breeding programs at the International Center for The CIMMYT has developed QP...
متن کاملBreeding and disseminating quality protein maize (QPM) for Africa
Quality protein maize (QPM) describes a range of maize cultivars with twice the content of limiting amino acids lysine and tryptophan compared with conventional maize, and has been developed to help reduce human malnutrition in areas where protein deficiency is prevalent and where maize is the major protein source in the diet, as in various parts of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The International M...
متن کاملConsumer acceptance of quality protein maize (QPM) in East Africa.
BACKGROUND Undernutrition in sub-Saharan Africa remains problematic, and quality protein maize (QPM) can benefit populations whose diets are heavily based on maize and who are consequently at risk for inadequate intakes of quality protein. However, changes in the chemical composition of QPM may affect its sensory characteristics and, hence, acceptance. Acceptance tests were therefore conducted ...
متن کاملForage Quality Variation among Maize Inbreds: In Vitro Fiber Digestion Kinetics and Prediction with NIRS
Because grain is highly digestible, maize hybrids for silage production are generally chosen based on their The nutritive value of forage maize (Zea mays L.) may be improved grain yield. However, the stalk portion of the maize through genetic selection for increased rate of fiber digestion or decreased indigestible fiber concentration. To identify sources of genetic plant contains 50% or more o...

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...
