Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum [L.] R. Br.) is a climate-smart cereal crop for environments prone to drought and heat stresses. cultivated in Pakistan on marginal soils with phosphorus (P) deficiency, which significantly decreases its productivity. Moreover, P fixation the country’s calcareous another major constraint requires attention. solubilizing bacteria (PSB) have potential improve avai...

The application of recombinant DNA and related techniques to plants opened up the potential to improve agronomic characters. food processing traits and food quality properties of plants as food sources. This review focuses on molecular approaches to improving the protein quality and reducing flatulence in beans. Much is now known about the regulation of seed-specific expression and organization...

effects of various fertilizers such as farmyard manure (fm), urea, and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr, including the genera azotobacter and azospirillium) were checked on yield, fatty acids, protein, and oil contents of sunflower. a two-year field experiment was conducted in a semi-arid region in iran in 2007 and 2008. the experiment was a split plot in a randomized complete block d...

Domestication and breeding have influenced the genetic structure of plant populations due to selection for adaptation from natural habitats to agro-ecosystems. Here, we investigate the effects of selection on the contents of 51 primary kernel metabolites and their relationships in three Triticum turgidum L. subspecies (i.e., wild emmer, emmer, durum wheat) that represent the major steps of tetr...

BACKGROUND Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG), CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (CEBPA) and retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRA) are nuclear transcription factors that play important roles in regulation of adipogenesis and fat deposition. The objectives of this study were to characterise the variability of these three candidate genes in a mixed sample panel composed of sev...

Understanding several modes of duplication contributing on the present genome structure is getting an attention because it could be related to numerous agronomically important traits. Since soybean serves as a rich protein source for animal feeds and human consumption, breeding efforts in soybean have been directed toward enhancing seed protein content. The publicly available soybean sequences ...

protein and energy are the two major components of feed that influence performance of the growing and fattening lambs. provision of the quality of protein in the lamb’s diet does not only improve the animal performance but also ensures profitable animal production. different vegetable protein sources are used to formulate the rations for growing and fattening lambs. these protein sources differ...
