Allozyme variability at 19 loci affecting 12 enzymes were analyzed electrophoretically in 24 Japanese, 3 Korean, and 16 Chinese populations of common buckwheat. Most of the populations were polymorphic at 8 loci, Adh, Dia-2, Got-2, Mdh-1, Mdh-3, 6-Pgdh-1, Pgm-2, and Sdh-1. The percentage of polymorphic loci was 31.6-42.1% and the average heterozygosity was in the range of 0.110-0.138. The level...

Field microplot, small plot, and greenhouse experiments were conducted to determine the effects of rotation crops on Pratylenchus penetrans, Meloidogyne hapla, and Rhizoctonia fragariae populations. Extraction of P. penetrans from roots and soil in microplots and field plots planted to rotation crops was highest for Garry oat, lowest for Triple S sorgho-sudangrass and Saia oat, and intermediate...

Carbon adsorbents for use in the removal of gaseous toluene from air were prepared buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) hull. A chemically-activated adsorbent was via impregnation raw hull powder with potassium carbonate, followed by thermal decomposition. The exhibited improved adsorption capacity compared to without chemical activation. Toluene concentration decreased 220 ppm 160 during 24...

Walnut flour is considered by food technology specialists as a source of complete protein, lipids, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, etc. The purpose the research to study possibility using walnut in “Fitness” buckwheat bread order expand range and increase nutritional density bakery products. objects were: baking wheat first grade; flour; mix “Fitness Mix” buckwheat; control samples bread; ex...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and biological activity of the volatile oils (VOs) from the flowers of three buckwheat species, Fagopyrum esculentum, Fagopyrum tataricum and Fagopyrum cymosum. The VOs were obtained from the fresh buckwheat flowers by hydrodistillation, and were analyzed for their chemical composition by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry ...
