Physiological and Molecular Approaches for Developing Thermotolerance in Vegetable Crops: A Growth, Yield and Sustenance Perspective
Vegetables are a distinct collection of plant-based foods that vary in nutritional diversity and form an important part of the healthy diet of the human being. Besides providing basic nutrition, they have great potential ...
Plot-level impacts of improved lentil varieties in Bangladesh
The advent of improved lentil varieties (ILVs) in the mid-1990s solved the disease problem which almost halted lentil production in Bangladesh. Levels of adoption of ILVs have been documented in the literature, but little ...
Protein Biofortification in Lentils (Lens culinaris Medik.) Toward Human Health
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is a nutritionally dense crop with significant quantities of
protein, low-digestible carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins. The amino acid composition
of lentil protein can impact human ...
Organic dry pea (Pisum sativum L.) biofortification for better human health
A primary criticism of organic agriculture is its lower yield and nutritional quality compared to conventional systems. Nutritionally, dry pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a rich source of low digestible carbohydrates, protein, ...
Characterization of a Collection of Colored Lentil Genetic Resources Using a Novel Computer Vision Approach
The lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is one of the major pulse crops cultivated worldwide. However, in the last decades, lentil cultivation has decreased in many areas surrounding Mediterranean countries due to low yields, ...
Genotypic variation in root architectural traits under contrasting phosphorus levels in Mediterranean and Indian origin lentil genotypes
The development of phosphorus-efficient crop cultivars boosts productivity while lowering eutrophication in the environment. It is feasible to improve the efficiency of phosphorus (P) absorption in lentils by enhancing ...
