Modulating effect of cotyledon cell microstructure on in vitro digestion of starch in legumes

Food Hydrocolloids, 2019
The cotyledon of legumes consists primarily of numerous starch granule-containing cells bound together by the pectin-rich middle lamella. In this study, we provided detailed characterisation of the microstructure, physicochemical properties, and in vitro

Cotyledon pectin molecular interconversions explain pectin solubilization during cooking of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris).

Food Research International, 2019
Dynamics of pectin extractability in cotyledons and seed coats were explored for mechanistic insight into pectin changes due to aging and cooking of beans.

Salt-adaptive strategies in oil seed crop Ricinus communis early seedlings (cotyledon vs. true leaf) revealed from proteomics analysis.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2019
Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress affecting crop growth and productivity. Ricinus communis has good salt tolerance and is also an important oilseed crop throughout the world.

Responses of seedling growth and survival to post‐germination cotyledon removal: An investigation among seven oak species

Journal of Ecology, 2019
Rodents regularly rely on emerged epicotyls to locate and remove cotyledons still containing valuable nutrients. However, the extent to which acorn characteristics influence tolerance to post‐germination predation has received little attention.

Localization of lectins in legume cotyledons

Journal of Cell Science, 1975
ABSTRACT High-resolurion techniques for the localization of lectins are described. Concanavalin A (Con A) and phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) are localized using a fluorescent method with (FITC)-labelled immunoglobulins which bind to the lectins in sections of jack and red kidney bean cotyledons.

Cotyledonal chloroplasts in the hypogeal seeds of clementine

Planta, 1987
Clementine (Citrus nobilisxCitrus aurantium amara pumila) is a chloroembryophyte with green quiescent embryos and hypogeal germination. The cotyledonal chloroplasts have been studied during germination in the dark and under two different irradiances 120 and 240 μmol·m(-2)·s(-1) throughout a period of three weeks.

Cell wall permeability in relation to in vitro starch digestion of pea cotyledon cells [PDF]

Food Structure
The role of cell wall permeability and rate of starch digestibility in intact cotyledon cells from four different varieties of pea seeds was studied. Pulsed-field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance (PFG NMR) coupled with light and confocal microscopy ...

Rapid degradation of cucumber cotyledon lipoxygenase

Phytochemistry, 1993
The lipoxygenase activity from cucumber cotyledons grown with their embryonic axis was separated into two fractions having M(r)s of 90,000 and 96,000, respectively, by hydrophobic chromatography. However, from de-embryonated cucumber cotyledons, only one form of lipoxygenase having a M(r) of 90,000 was purified.

Cotyledon Spp.

2000
Abstract Plants of Cotyledon, Kalanchoe and Tylecodon spp. contain toxic glycosides, bufadienolides; these are named after the toad of the genus Bufo (1,2), which also harbors these com pounds in venom. Toad venom may kill dogs and, occa sionally, humans (5).

Enzyme synthesis in the cotyledons of germinating seeds

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1959
Abstract It has been shown that the increase in the activities of a phosphatase and an amylase in the cotyledons of germinating peas is the result of a process which is energy dependent and inhibited by chloramphenicol and p -fluoro-phenylalanine. It is concluded that these increased activities represent a net synthesis of enzyme-proteins.
