Morphological characters and Electrophoretic SDS-PAGE analysis were performed to established genetic diversity for six important lentil varieties of Bangladesh and to elucidate their genetic relationships. Analyses of variance of morphological characters showed significant differences among varieties. The resulted protein banding pattern showed 57.12% polymorphism and could be considered as gen...

this study in order to evaluate the possibility of improving the root growth of lentil with use mycorrhiza symbiosis with cooperation azospirillum bacteria under rainfed conditions was conducted. a tri-factorial experiment was organized on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replicates, in which factor m was the mycorrhizal inoculums in three levels including (not use, use m...

background and objectives: the food product known as the ‘hamburger’ plays a crucial role in people’s nutrition and the diversity of the food they consume. the reasons for our study include the area under cultivation, the remarkable amount of protein in chickpeas and lentils, as well as the public interest in tending to meat products, especially hamburgers. materials and methods: in this study,...

Abstract Background and aims This study explores the use of energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) for screening micronutrient concentrations in lentil sorghum grain biofortification breeding programs. Methods Lentil seed was provided from programs analysed with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) to determine reference concentration levels Ca, Mn, Fe, Cu Zn. A subset th...

allelopathic relationship between plant associations, could be applied in non-chemical ‎weed management, however, those allelochemicals should not have adverse effects on arable ‎crops. in order to evaluate allelopatic effects of barley (hordeum vulgare) on ‎germination & growth characteristics of lentil (lens esculenta), two experiments were ‎conducted based on compactly randomized design (crd...

Starch, total amylolytic and phosphorylase activities were determined in lentil cotyledons during the first days of germination. Several independent criteria show that the amylolytic activity is due mainly to an amylase of the alpha type. Starch is degraded slowly in the first days; during this time, alpha- and beta-amylase activity are very low, while phosphorylase increases and reach a peak o...

chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is reportedly controlled by at least five genes with tolerance dominant over Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) germplasm with sufficient winter susceptibility (Malhotra and Singh, 1990). hardiness to survive most winters in cold northern areas is available. However, the use of that germplasm in breeding programs is hampered One of the major problems in characterizing ...

Two faba bean (Vicia faba L.) subspecies major and minor and lentil seeds grown in Algeria were separated into cotyledons and hulls. These fractions, together with their corresponding whole seeds, were extracted with two solvents, aqueous (70%) acetone and (80%) ethanol, and evaluated for antioxidant activity in relation to their phenolic contents. Acetone selectively extracted tannins from fab...
