Allocation of reserve nitrogen compounds during germination of Canavalia brasiliensis seeds

Biotemas, 2013
Canavalia brasiliensis, commonly known as “feijão-bravo-do-ceará”, is an herbaceous plant with a great potential for biomass production and rusticity within the period of low water availability, coupled with the great effectiveness of nitrogen fixation.

Economic evaluation of supplementation with Canavalia brasiliensis CIAT 17009 in a Colombian dual-purpose cattle system

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
IntroductionIn the dual-purpose cattle systems of the Colombian Caribbean region, the grass Bothriochloa pertusa (Colosuana) is predominant. Despite its overall good performance, its productivity and quality significantly decline during dry seasons, leading to feed shortages and production slumps. Supplementation with legumes and improvement of pasture

Anti-inflammatory and Anti-necrotic Effect of Lectins from Canavalia ensiformis and Canavalia brasiliensis in Experimental Acute Pancreatitis [PDF]

Glycoconjugate Journal, 2021
Abstract Lectins isolated from Canavalia ensiformis (ConA) and Canavalia brasiliensis (ConBr) are promising molecules to modulate cell death. Acute pancreatitis, characterized by acinar cell necrosis and inflammation, presents significant morbidity and mortality.

AGRONOMIC EVALUATION OF TROPICAL GRASSES ASSOCIATED WITH Canavalia brasiliensis IN DRY TROPIC

Agrociencia, 2022
Livestock production in some tropical regions is characterized by the use of naturalized forages in extensive management with low production rates. The use of improved grass-legume associations represents a sustainable intensification opportunity for this type of agroecosystems.

Molecular Cloning and Characterization of ConBr, the Lectin of Canavalia Brasiliensis Seeds [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1997
ConBr, a lectin isolated from Canavalia brusiliensis seeds, shares with other legume plant lectins from the genus Canavalia (Diocleinae subtribe) primary carbohydrate recognition specificity for D‐mannose and D‐glucose. However, ConBr exerts different biological effects than concanavalin A, the lectin of Canavalia ensiformis seeds, regarding induction ...

Using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy for estimating nutritional quality of Brachiaria humidicola in breeding selections

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 3, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Abstract Brachiaria humidicola (BH) (syn. Urochloa humidicola) is an important forage grass in the tropics due to its capacity to grow in nutrient‐deficient soils, tolerate waterlogging, and inhibit soil nitrification. A major objective of BH breeding is to improve its nutritional quality. Therefore, a rapid and low‐cost method is needed to assess main

Expression and Purification of the Recombinant Conbr (Canavalia Brasiliensis Lectin) Produced in Escherichia Coli Cells [PDF]

Protein & Peptide Letters, 2002
ConBr, a D-glucose/D-mannose-specific lectin from Canavalia brasiliensis seeds, was produced in Escherichia coli from a (c)DNA clone subcloned to pET15b expression vector. The recombinant lectin (rConBr) was purified by one-step immobilized metal-affinity chromatography using an amino-terminal hexahistidine tag. By SDS-PAGE and Western blot, rConBr was

Effect of Lectins from Diocleinae Subtribe against Oral Streptococci

Molecules, 2011
Surface colonization is an essential step in biofilm development. The ability of oral pathogens to adhere to tooth surfaces is directly linked with the presence of specific molecules at the bacterial surface that can interact with enamel acquired ...
