Le haricot mungo est une culture autogame, à jours courts et à saison chaude, principalement cultivée dans les régions arides et semi-arides. Le haricot mungo est une source vitale de protéines pour les êtres humains. Parmi les différentes légumineuses, le haricot mungo a une teneur élevée en vitamine B et est riche en acides aminés essentiels comme l'arginine, la leucine, la lysine, le tryptophane et la valine. Les germes de haricot vert contiennent des vitamines C et E. Il existe de grandes possibilités d'augmenter la production et la productivité du haricot mungo en...

Le haricot mungo est la culture la plus rentable du groupe des légumineuses et est largement cultivé en Inde. Il s'agit d'un composant diététique essentiel en Inde. C'est la source de protéines la moins chère (20-27%) et elle offre une sécurité nutritionnelle aux végétariens. Il porte des traces de facteurs antinutritionnels sans aucun danger pour la santé, comparé à d'autres légumineuses. Le haricot mungo est essentiellement une culture autogame. Sa haute teneur en protéines, sa digestibilité facile et sa faible production de flatulences ont rendu cette culture plus...

Industrial enzymes are considered to be the heart of Biotechnology. There is much scope of R & D resulting in developing number of new products and improving the process and performances of the existing products. Here, research work on two industrially important enzymes xylanase and starch phosphorylase are reported. Degenerate primers are designed for microbial endo-1,4- -xylanase gene. These primers may be exploited for amplification of the gene in a microbe. The approach may be exploited for production of xylanase using recombinant DNA technology. Besides, an alkalano- thermophilic...

Karnal bunt (KB) disease incited by Tillelia indica is widely distributed and an economically important disease of wheat. The present study, attempts were made to find out the physiological, biochemical and molecular basis of resistant and stage specific immunity, against KB.The enzymes of phenylpropanoid pathway were expressed and remained higher in resistant genotype. Phenylpropanoid metabolism is involved in synthesis of carotenoid, act as precursor of ABA synthesis. The low carotenoid levels in resistant than susceptible genotype due to its more conversion in to ABA pool, induced...
