The class of compounds called non-protein nitrogen (NPN) is not a homogeneous group of similar chemicals but rather an operational term for the remainder of nitrogen in milk and formula once the protein fraction has been removed. NPN therefore consists of widely diverse types of compounds, ranging from urea to complex nitrogen-containing oligosaccharides. It is obvious that the capacity of an infant to utilize these compounds and the potential physiological effects that they can exert will also vary considerably.

Effects of field conditions, low nitrogen and drought on genetic parameters of protein and tryptophan concentrations in grain of quality protein maize

Quality Protein Maize (QPM) has about twice the amount of lysine and tryptophan of normal maize and hence represents an important tool of correcting its deficiency in protein quality. However, the effects of low nitrogen and drought on genetic parameters such as gene action and combining abilities of protein quantity and quality of QPM are not known. To study how these genetic parameters are af...
