The affinity of concanavalin A and Lens culinaris hemagglutinin for glycopeptides

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure, 1974
The affinity of concanavalin A for ovalbumin, transferrin and glycopeptides from these proteins and from IgM has been investigated by studying inhibition of a concanavalin A-dextran precipitation system. The mixture of glycopeptides from ovalbumin was a powerful inhibitor with an apparent association constant above 106.

Cryptic speciation in Lens culinaris

Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 1993
Three crossability groups have been identified in the wild progenitor of lentil, Lens culinaris ssp. orientalis. The common one which is predominant in this taxon and in the cultigen, the unique one, which at present is known only from three populations in southern Turkey and northern Syria and the intermediate one, known from four populations in that ...

Extensive macrosynteny between Medicago truncatula and Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2006
The first predominantly gene-based genetic linkage map of lentil (Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris) was constructed using an F5 population developed from a cross between the cultivars Digger (ILL5722) and Northfield (ILL5588) using 79 intron-targeted amplified polymorphic (ITAP) and 18 genomic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers.

Lentils (Lens culinaris, L.)

2017
Lentils have been part of human diet from ancient times. This chapter focuses on the nutritional composition, presence of bioactive substances, antioxidants and health rendering properties of lentils. Recent definitions have considered lentils as a prophylactic and therapeutic functional food due to its considerable content of essential macronutrients,

Chemical performance of multi‐environment trials in lens (Lens culinaris M.)

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2009
AbstractBACKGROUND: Genotype–environment (GE) interaction has been a major effect to determine stable lens (Lens culinaris (Medik.) Merr.) cultivars for chemical composition in Turkey. Utilization of the lines depends on their agronomic traits and stability of the chemical composition in diverse environments.

Inheritance of mitochondrial DNA in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.)

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1994
Restriction fragment analysis was used to examine the inheritance of lentil mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in F1 and F5 progeny from intrasubspecific (Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris) crosses and in F1 progeny from intersubspecific (Lens culinaris ssp. orientalis x L. culinaris ssp. culinaris) crosses.

Lentils (Lens culinaris L.), a Rich Source of Folates

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2013
The potential for genetic biofortification of U.S.-grown lentils ( Lens culinaris L.) with bioavailable folate has not been widely studied. The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the folate concentration of 10 commercial lentil cultivars grown in Minot and McLean counties, North Dakota, USA, in 2010 and 2011, (2) to determine the genotype ...

Furanoacetylene and isoflavonoid phytoalexins in Lens culinaris

Phytochemistry, 1978
Abstract The ability of two Lens species to synthesise the furnaoacetylenes wyerone and wyerone epoxide, as well as the pterocarpan variabilin, has been demonstrated. This links Lens more close to Vicia than to the remaining genera of the tribe Vicieae.

A novel defensin from the lentil Lens culinaris seeds

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2008
A novel 47-residue plant defensin was purified from germinated seeds of the lentil Lens culinaris by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration, chromatography, and RP-HPLC. The molecular mass (5440.41Da) and complete amino acid sequence (KTCENLSDSFKGPCIPDGNCNKHCKEKEHLLSGRCRDDFRCWCTRNC) of defensin, termed Lc-def, were determined.
