Background Rice varieties enriched with potential bioactive compounds are poised to make a significant contribution global health. It is anticipated that edible medications made from rice seeds will lead novel therapeutics. Purpose High-yielding popular pigmented and nonpigmented were selected for in-depth analysis of contents. Nutraceutical high-yielding often goes underexplored compared low-yielding specialty varieties. This study addresses the gap by metabolomic profiling uncover...
Abstract Lentil is the fifth most important grain legume growing in arid/semi‐arid regions of world. Drought one major constraints leading up to 50% production losses just lentil. Application silicon (Si) has been shown be a promising solution improve drought tolerance; however, biochemical mechanisms and interactions involved are not fully understood, especially legumes. This study was designed evaluate effects Si on stress tolerance lentil genotypes. Seven genotypes with different levels...
Lentil is an essential cool-season food legume that offers several benefits in human nutrition and cropping systems. Drought stress the major environmental constraint affecting lentil plants' growth productivity by altering various morphological, physiological, biochemical traits. Our previous research provided physiological evidence showing role of silicon (Si) alleviating drought plants, while molecular mechanisms are still unidentified. Understanding Si-mediated tolerance can provide...
Abstract BACKGROUND Lentil is an important nutritionally rich pulse crop in the world. Despite having a prominent role human health and nutrition, it very unfortunate that global lentil production adversely limited by drought stress, causing huge decline yield productivity. Drought stress can also affect nutritional profile of seeds. Silicon (Si) essential element for plants general component diet found mainly plant‐based foods. This study investigated effects Si on sensory properties seeds...
General and specific combining ability effects of parents hybrids were studied for lodging resistance yield in rice. Twelve F1 developed by crossing four lines (lodging genotypes) with three testers resistant) the L x T pattern. The analysis variance was highly significant, indicating genetic diversity importance both additive non-additive gene actions inheritance traits investigated. Significant sca different indicated a preponderance action. Among parents, viz., Ponmani, Uma Gouri found to...
