“…However, protein in grains was slightly better digested than legumes. Similar results were reported in the literature for proteolysis with values ranging between 80-95% for oats, spelt and quinoa (Abdel-Aal & Hucl, 2002;Sobota et al, 2020;Zarkadas et al, 1995), 70-80% for legumes (Hussain et al, 2020), and 60% for soya bean (Zahir et al, 2020). The extent of proteolysis achieved by the samples, could be even higher than reported because of the extent of proteolysis calculation has been just based on FAA without taking into account the possible short-chain peptides which are also bioabsorbable.…”

“…Esto nos lleva a obtener mayores benef icios por ser una harina 100% integral (Hussain, Iqbal, Khan y Shah, 2020). De esta forma aporta mayor contenido de f ibra dietética, pudiendo tener implicaciones positivas para la salud como reducción del riesgo de algunos tipos de cáncer, así como el nivel de colesterol en sangre, previniendo enfermedades cardiovasculares, diabetes tipo 2 y sobrepeso (Hansen, Møller, Andersen, Jørgensen y Hansen, 2004;Jonsson et al, 2018;Hussain et al, 2020).…”

Siendo los cereales parte fundamental de la alimentación mundial es necesario lograr su adaptación en diferentes entornos debido al cambio climático. Es esencial el estudio de las modif icaciones que pueden presentarse durante su desarrollo, así como en la calidad del producto cosechado. El objetivo del trabajo fue analizar el efecto del estrés hídrico sobre el desarrollo, crecimiento, producción y calidad agronómica del cultivo de centeno y el grano cosechado. Para la siembra se utilizó un diseño experimental de una sola vía, donde los tratamientos constaron de tres diferentes regímenes de humedad en el suelo asignados completamente al azar. Las variables evaluadas al momento de la cosecha fueron la altura de la planta y el número de espigas por metro lineal. Posterior a la cosecha se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar donde se evaluó el tamaño de la espiga y cuantos granos contenía, así como el tamaño y color de grano, peso de 1000 granos, peso hectolítrico, rendimiento y contenido de cenizas y proteínas. Se realizó un análisis de varianza y pruebas de comparación de medias por Tukey (P < 0.05) para el contenido de cenizas y proteína y Duncan (P < 0.05 y P ≤ 0.0001) para el resto de las determinaciones. Los resultados mostraron que la menor lámina de riego no afectó negativamente al cultivo, presentando un apropiado desarrollo agronómico, destacando un incremento en la cantidad y tamaño de espigas, aumento en la cantidad de granos por espiga, así como un alto rendimiento y contenido de proteínas de grano. Estos valores fueron más altos que los reportados en investigaciones previas. Todo esto conf irma que a pesar de que el centeno es considerado un cereal invernal, logró aclimatarse a las condiciones del suelo, disminución de agua y altas temperaturas de la zona de la costa de Hermosillo, Sonora.

“…Legumes are diverse; they are suitable for cultivation in a variety of environments and temperatures ( Magrini et al., 2019 ). They are an excellent source of antioxidants, micronutrients, and proteins, finding use as natural fertilizers, medicines, and animal fodder ( Shah et al., 2020 ; Singh et al., 2022 ). Apart from their health benefits, legumes naturally have the ability to fix nitrogen from the atmosphere symbiotically, which has positive effects on agriculture and soil enrichment that are both long-lasting and economically viable.…”

LDRGDb - Legumes disease resistance genes database

Legumes comprise one of the world’s largest, most diverse, and economically important plant families, known for their nutritional and medicinal benefits. Legumes are susceptible to a wide range of diseases, similar to other agricultural crops. Diseases have a considerable impact on the production of legume crop species, resulting in large yield losses worldwide. Due to continuous interactions between plants and their pathogens in the environment and the evolution of new pathogens under high selection pressure; disease resistant genes emerge in plant cultivars in the field against those pathogens or disease. Thus, disease resistant genes play critical roles in plant resistance responses, and their discovery and subsequent use in breeding programmes aid in reducing yield loss. The genomic era, with its high-throughput and low-cost genomic tools, has revolutionised our understanding of the complex interactions between legumes and pathogens, resulting in the identification of several critical participants in both the resistant and susceptible relationships. However, a substantial amount of existing information about numerous legume species has been disseminated as text or is preserved across fractions in different databases, posing a challenge for researchers. As a result, the range, scope, and complexity of these resources pose challenges to those who manage and use them. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop tools and a single conjugate database to manage genetic information for the world’s plant genetic resources, allowing for the rapid incorporation of essential resistance genes into breeding strategies. Here, developed the first comprehensive database of disease resistance genes named as LDRGDb - LEGUMES DISEASE RESISTANCE GENES DATABASE comprises 10 legumes [Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan), Chickpea (Cicer arietinum), Soybean (Glycine max), Lentil (Lens culinaris), Alfalfa (Medicago sativa), Barrelclover (Medicago truncatula), Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), Pea (Pisum sativum),Faba bean (Vicia faba), and Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata)]. The LDRGDb is a user-friendly database developed by integrating a variety of tools and software that combine knowledge about resistant genes, QTLs, and their loci, with proteomics, pathway interactions, and genomics (https://ldrgdb.in/).
