this study carried out in a factorial layout on completely randomaized block design with three replications, to evaluate the above- and below- ground competition between sesame (sesamum indicum) and pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus), and their impacts on sesame yield and yield component. the experimental treatments were all combination of crop-weed competition (shoot competition, root competitio...

The present study was conducted to determine the correlation coefficients among seed yield and contributing characters in 65 genotypes of sesame. per plant recorded significant positive association with capsule length (cm), height number capsules, seeds 1000- weight (g) oil content (%) at both phenotypic genotypic levels. As correlations analysis, it is concluded that, selection for these can b...

Abstract This work evaluated the functional properties of sesame protein fractions in order to determine their potential food applications. Sesame seed were prepared according solubility: water-soluble (albumin), salt-soluble (globulin), alkaline-soluble (glutelin) and ethanol-soluble (prolamin). Globulin was most abundant fraction, consisting 91% protein, followed by glutelin, albumin prolamin...
