There is strong evidence for health benefits from whole-grain wheat consumption and these have been linked to their higher fibre, antioxidant/(poly)phenolic mineral contents. However, there still scientific controversy about the relative effect of species (Triticum aestivum vs T. spelta) production methods (conventional organic) on nutritional composition wheat. The retail survey reported here showed that, use spelt varieties organic results in significantly (between 10 64%) levels phenolics...

The environmental and biodiversity benefits of organic farming are widely recognized, but there is still controversy about the effects production methods on nutritional composition food human health. In first part this article therefore, we critically review evidence that improve quality crops. Moreover, summarize our current understanding how gains linked to implementation “innovations” introduced into conventional crop during intensification or “green revolution” agriculture over last 100...

Pigmented rice, especially black is gaining popularity as it rich in antioxidants such anthocyanins and γ-oryzanol. At present, knowledge about temporal control of biosynthesis accumulation during grain development limited. To address this, the patterns γ-oryzanol were assessed two distinct rice genotypes over course development, expression known regulatory genes for anthocyanin was examined. The results indicated that total content increased continuously throughout while peaked at dough...

Having worldwide spread from its native American distribution to Africa and Asia since 2016, the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is a crop pest species that has entered Nepal in May 2019 distributed all over rapid way. an agrarian nation majority of farmers grow maize on large scale. This found affect substantially damages crops entirely declining yield heavily. menace poses major threat food security agricultural trade. Thus this review focuses assessment biology possible management...

Accumulation of phytochemicals in vegetative tissue under nitrogen (N) stress as an adaptive strategy has been investigated various crops, but the effect applied N on grain is poorly understood. This study biosynthesis and accumulation rice (Oryza sativa L.) anthocyanin γ-oryzanol different ultraviolet-B (UV-B) conditions a controlled pot trial using two distinct black genotypes. The response content to was genotype-dependent not altered by UV-B conditions. Applied increased decreased...
