Chickpea and lentil are two important pulse crops used for human consumption as sources of vegetable protein, rich in amino acids and bioactive compounds. The search for elite cultivars with better architecture has been a demand by farmers of these two crops, which aims to systematize their mechaniz...
We have determined the profile of plant-derived NCR peptides present in endosymbiotic cells (bacteroids) induced by R. leguminosarum bv viciae strain UPM791 in nodules from two different hosts (pea and lentil).
Abiotic stresses—such as drought, salinity, and alkalinity severely limit global lentil production by impairing physiological processes including osmolytes accumulation, chlorophyll synthesis, H2O2 production and antioxidant activities. However, no proteomic signature studies have dissected the mole...
Germination offers advantages to improve legume protein digestibility as it disintegrates seed structure and hydrolyzes proteins and anti-nutrients. Seed permeability (related to polyphenol content of seed coats) is an important factor affecting the duration of seed germination and its impact in pro...
We present an atlas of global gene expression covering embryo and seed coat development in lentil, providing insights into the evolution of gene expression in embryogenesis of lentil species.
