Processing enhanced the nutritional contents of Enterolobium cyclocarpum seeds
An experiment was carried out to determine the effects of different methods of processing on the nutritional and anti-nutritional contents of Enterolobium cyclocarpum seeds. The seeds were harvested and processed into four different treatments: T1 (raw), T2 (boiled), T3 (Soaked), and T4 (roasted). The seeds were later ground in hammer mill and taken to

Extracción y caracterización del almidón de las semillas deEnterolobium cyclocarpumExtraction and characterization of starch fromEnterolobium cyclocarpumseeds [PDF]
Starch was extracted from the seeds of parota tree (Enterolobium cyclocarpum), partially characterized and compared with native corn starch. The starch yield obtained from decorticated seed was 750 g/kg, a medium purity (852 g/kg), a high content of proteins (35 g/kg), and amylopectin predominance (734 g/kg).

The Impact of Landscape Disturbance on Spatial Genetic Structure in the Guanacaste Tree, Enterolobium cyclocarpum (Fabaceae) [PDF]
We examined spatial genetic structure (SGS) in Enterolobium cyclocarpum (the Guanacaste tree), a dominant tree of Central American dry forests in 4 sites in Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica. In disturbed dry forest sites (e.g., pastures), E. cyclocarpum is primarily dispersed by cattle and horses, whose movements are restricted by pasture boundaries ...
