L. amylophilus GV6 was studied for production of L(+) lactic acid in single step fermentation using starchy substrates. Seven types of inexpensive organic nitrogen supplements (flour of pigeon pea, red lentil gram, black gram, bengal gram, green gram, soya bean and baker’s yeast) were evaluated for their potential to replace more expensive commercial nitrogen sources, peptone and yeast extract....

Background and Objectives: Savigh or the edible roasted flour has both remedial and nutritional applications. Despite the introduction of Savigh in the Iranian traditional medicine resources and particularly in Hadith books, this product has not been well-known yet. This review study aimed to investigate the therapeutic applications of lentil Savigh in Hadith books and Iranian traditional medic...

Anecdotal evidence identified a change in the reaction of the resistant lentil cv Nipper to ascochyta blight in South Australia in 2010 and subsequent seasons, leading to infection. This study investigated field reactions of lentil cultivars against Ascochyta lentis and the pathogenic variability of the A. lentis population in southern Australia on commonly grown cultivars and on parental germp...

The objective of this study was to determine the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) protein and amino acids (AA) calculate digestible indispensable AA score (DIAAS) three varieties Canadian grown pulses (faba bean, lentil, yellow pea). Three steam-pelleted (80 °C) diets (faba/lentil/pea; 40% inclusion) a nitrogen-free diet were fed eight cannulated growing pigs in 4 × replicated Latin squar...

in order to evaluate the comparison of different intercropping patterns of cumin (cuminum cyminum l. ) with lentil (lens culinaris l.) in double crop, a field experiment was conducted based on a randomized complete block design with three replications and eight treatment at the farm located in west azerbaijan province - city nagadeh, iran during growing reason of 2011-2012. treatments included ...

Most red lentil produced worldwide is consumed in dehulled form, and post-harvest milling and splitting qualities are major concerns in the secondary processing industry. Lentil producers in northern temperate regions usually apply pre-harvest desiccants as harvest aids to accelerate the lentil crop drying process and facilitate harvesting operations. This paper reports on field studies conduct...

introduction evapotranspiration is one of the most important elements of hydrological cycle which is required for water resource management and design of irrigation systems. crop evapotranspiration (etc) can be measured by the lysimeter using water balance equation. it also can be estimated by multiplying reference evapotranspiration (eto) and crop coefficient (kc). considering the importance o...

We have investigated expression of an IgE-binding factor (IgE-BF) cDNA in both COS-7 monkey kidney cells and Chinese hamster ovary cells. Transient expression of the IgE-BF clone in either cell type yielded IgE-BF, which potentiated an in vitro IgE response and had an affinity for lentil lectin. In contrast, when the transient expression experiments were carried out in the presence of tunicamyc...
