sesame (sesamum indicum l.) seed and oil have long been used widely as healthy foods to supply energy and prevent aging. some of the main active anti-oxidative constituents in sesame seeds are γ-tocopherol and phenols. the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between roasting temperature and time with γ-tocopherol and total phenolic compounds (tpc) of sesame seeds when roas...

BACKGROUND Plants depend on their root systems to acquire the water and nutrients necessary for their survival in nature, and for their yield and nutritional quality in agriculture. Root systems are complex and a variety of root phenes have been identified as contributors to adaptation to soils with low fertility and aluminium (Al) toxicity. Phenotypic characterization of root adaptations to in...

in this research, we studied polyamines including putrescine (put), spermidine (spd) and spermine (spm) changes in three common bean (phaseolus vulgaris) genotypes, k-s-31167, ge-288 and naz under drought stress. our result showed steadily increase in putrescine (put) and spermine (spm) in all three genotypes.  ge-288 genotype showed decrease and then increasing in spermidine (spd) content but ...

Abstract The objective of this work was to quantify the extraction and export nutrients by common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) cultivars from different commercial groups with growth habits. experiment conducted using four cultivars: TAA Gol, BRS FC104, IPR Tuiuiú, Dama. Total dry matter (DM) nutrient accumulation in V4 (with four, six, eight three-leaflet leaves), R5, R7, R8, R9 stages determined,...

in order to estimate effects of drought stress on dry matter allocation of pinto bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.), an experiment was carried out as split plot based on complete randomized block design with four replications at zanjan university research farm. in this experiment,  two irrigation levels (optimum irrigation during growth season and post flowering drought stress) were set at main plots...

Adzuki bean (Vigna angularis) is one of the most important legume crops in Asian countries like China, Japan and Korea due to its nutritious protein and starch contents. In spite of its economic importance, gene expression analysis system for gene function verification of adzuki bean is still absent. Therefore, reference genes for gene expression analysis based on the quantitative real time PCR...
