Protein fractions, amino acid composition and antinutritional constituents of h...
Vasconcelos, Ilka Maria; Maia, Fernanda Maria Machado; Farias, Davi Felipe; Campello, Claudio Cabral; Carvalho, Ana Fontenele UranoHigh-yielding cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) cultivars were analysed for major changes in seed protein types, amino acid profiles and antinutritional factors content. As usual, the globulins constitute the major seed proteins (493.2–573.3 g kg 1 total seed protein), followed by albumins (201.0–248.0 g kg 1 ), basic glutelins (119.1–154.3 g kg 1 ), acid glutelins (82.4–92.3 g kg 1 ) and prolamins (13.2–20.2 g kg 1 )...
Composição e caracterização nutricional de três cultivares de Vigna unguiculata...
Maia, Fernanda Maria MachadoCowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.)] Walpi, is a legume which constitutes an important human and animal dietary constituent supplying protein and energy. Due to its importance many cultivars were developed aimed to obtain new varieties with higher germination index, shorter flowering time, higher number of pods per plant, improved seed quality, and traits such as resistance to several pests and diseases, resistance ...
