Nitrogen fixation and fertilization have similar effects on biomass allocation in nitrogen-fixing plants. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
It has long been known that plants adjust allocation to different tissues based on supply of soil nitrogen, but the degree to which nitrogen supplied by symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing bacteria has similar effects on allocation is less well known. Using an experiment with 15 plant species with and without access to symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing bacteria, grown ...

Extracción y caracterización del almidón de las semillas deEnterolobium cyclocarpumExtraction and characterization of starch fromEnterolobium cyclocarpumseeds [PDF]

CyTA - Journal of Food, 2011
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).
