Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) markers are important molecular tools widely used in genetic and genomic research plants. However, the number of SSR developed lentils (Lens culinaris Medik.) so far, which is an economically cool season legume plant, has been very limited. The lack among main factors limiting lentil breeding studies. In this study, 288 clones belonging to enriched libraries with ...

My question: I have two children who have really gotten into reading the FDA-required "Nutrition Facts" label that appears on packaged food. In particular, my son (age 7) now continually reads the labels and tries to decide "which is healthier?" The problem? The nutrition label is only on things that have packages, which are more likely to be processed foods. Is there a website or other resourc...

The systematic observation of food habits and health amongst the elderly, both cross-sectionally and longitudinally, in the Asia Pacific region is increasing as reflected in the recent collective report of a number of intake and health variables in Taiwanese communities. Most studies are of Chinese and Japanese-speaking populations, with some from elsewhere in Northeast Asia (notably Korea) and...

26 The effect of liquid (LSF) and solid state fermentation (SSF) of lentils for production 27 of water-soluble fractions with antioxidant and antihypertensive properties was 28 studied. LSF was performed either spontaneously (NF) or by Lactobacillus plantarum 29 (LP) while SSF was performed by Bacillus subtilis (BS). Native lactic flora in NF 30 adapted better than L. plantarum to fermentative ...

ABSTRACT Four populations of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in North America were inferred previously, based on analyses of both rapidly evolving markers (DNA fingerprint and mycelial compatiblity), and multilocus DNA sequence spanning the range between fast and slow evolution. Each population was defined as an interbreeding unit of conspecific individuals sharing a common recent ancestor and arising...

Thirty-one cultures of Rhizobium leguminosarum were screened for effectiveness (C(2)H(2) reduction) on lentils (Lens esculenta). Fluorescent antibodies prepared against three of the most effective strains (Hawaii 5-0, Nitragin 92A3, and Nitragin 128A12) exhibited a high degree of strain specificity; the antibodies reacted strongly with their homologous rhizobia in culture and with bacteroids in...

F1 materials of half-diallel crosses for nine characters in lentils were studied correlation, path-coefficient, and selection index. The phenotypic component variation (σ2p) was higher than the genotypic (σ2g). highest σ2g σ2pwere obtained CAMF. Investigation showed that correlations (rg) respective (rp) most characters. SWPP a highly significant positive correlation coefficient with other exce...

The Chickpea Chlorotic Dwarf Virus (CpCDV) has proved very much devastating not only for chickpea crop but also lentils, cotton and papaya. In recent past years, this mastrevirus put a sublime pressure on hosts reduced yield up to 95%. This virus is most prevalence in dry regions equally important pathogen other parts of the world especially America Europe. capability due rapid changes DNA. Vec...
