The dominant I gene inhibits accumulation of anthocyanin pigments in epidermal cells of the soybean seed coat. We compared saline-soluble proteins extracted from developing seed coats and identified a 35-kilodalton protein that was abundant in Richland (genotype I/I, yellow) and much reduced in an isogenic mutant line T157 (genotype i/i, imperfect black seed coats). We purified the 35-kilodalto...

UNLABELLED Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr. cv Jack) seed development was separated into nine defined stages (S1 to S9). Testa (seed coats) were removed from developing seeds at stages S2, 4, 6, 8, and 9, and subjected to shotgun proteomic profiling. For each stage "total proteins" were isolated from 150 mg dry weight of seed coat using a phenol-based method, then reduced, alkylated, and digeste...

In this study, some growth parameters, protein content and fatty acids properties of ten different sesame populations cultivated in Southeastern Anatolia were investigated. Protein oil contents the varied between 19.60-24.85 % 30.16-40.36 %, respectively. Oleic acid (43.42-45.05 %), linoleic (38.12-39.80 palmitic (9.33-9.83 %) stearic (5.33 to 5.63 predominant compounds seed oil. Cultivated exh...

Seed-type vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) activity is predicted to be essential for post-translational proteolysis of seed storage proteins in the protein storage vacuole of developing seeds. To test this hypothesis, we examined the protein profiles of developing and germinating seeds from Arabidopsis plants containing transposon-insertional knockout mutations in the genes that encode the two ...

BACKGROUND: Wheat produces more than 50 percent of requirements protein and calorie for human nutrition in Iran. Management of nitrogen fertilizing is important to increasing wheat production. So, among chemical fertilizer a high correlation reported between nitrogen and yield. Also to improve physical, chemical and biological properties of soil, organic fertilizer such as verm...

Effect of rice bran protein and modified basil seed gum on physicochemical properties stability confectionery cream

In the present study, phytochemical contents of 25 moth bean (Vigna aconitifolia) seed accessions were evaluated. This includes protease inhibitors, phytic acid, radical scavenging activity, and tannins. The studies revealed significant variation in the contents of theses phytochemicals. Presence of photochemical composition was correlated with seed storage proteins like albumin and globulin. Q...

in order to investigate the role of bacillus cogulans on yield of two forage corn cultivars, an experiment carried out at agricultural research center of tehran province during 2009-2010. the experiment design consisted of three randomized complete blocks in a factorial arrangement. investigated treatments consisted of the kind of phosphorus and cultivar. the phosphorus factor included of the a...
