Alginate inhibits iron absorption from ferrous gluconate in a randomized controlled trial and reduces iron uptake into Caco-2 cells [PDF]

, 2014
Previous in vitro results indicated that alginate beads might be a useful vehicle for food iron fortification. A human study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that alginate enhances iron absorption.

QTL Mapping of Several Seed Quality Traits in the DH Population NPZ06 × NPZ09 (Brassica napus L.) for Marker‐Assisted Selection

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

Phytate reduction in sorghum grains cultivated in Saudi Arabia [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Food Technology
Sorghum grains are the leading cereal crop in Saudi Arabia and act as the principal source of energy, protein, vitamins, minerals, and polyphenols. The flour is mixed with wheat flour to prepare bread. This study was carried out to investigate the effect

Seasonal variation in food pattern but not in energy and nutrient intakes of rural Beninese school-aged children [PDF]

Background: Inadequate energy and nutrient intakes are a major nutritional problem in developing countries. A recent study in Beninese school-aged children in different seasons revealed a high prevalence of stunting and poor iron status that might be ...

Genome‐Wide Association Study Elucidates the Genetic Architecture of Manganese Tolerance in Brassica napus

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brassica napus (canola) is a significant contributor to the world's oil production and is cultivated across continents, yet acidic soils with aluminium (Al3+) and manganese (Mn2+) toxicities limit its production. The genetic determinants underlying natural variation for acidic soil tolerance in canola are unknown and need to be determined ...

Tolerance to Phosphorus Deficiency Improves Seed Phytic Acid‐to‐Iron Molar Ratios in Common Bean

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although significant advances have been achieved in the biofortification of common beans to overcome deficiencies in Zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), the mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We thus explored the relationships between phosphorus nutrition and Zn and Fe accumulation in four bean genotypes (Edar, Nizok, Colorado and Chimbolos ...

Assimilation of phytate-phosphorus by the extracellular phytase activity of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) is affected by the availability of soluble phytate [PDF]

, 2006
Phytate, the major organic phosphorus in soil, is not readily available to plants as a source of phosphorus (P). It is either complexed with cations or adsorbed to various soil components.

Performance and Health Status of Juvenile Largemouth Bass (Micropterus nigricans) Fed Inclusions of Enzyme‐Treated and Low‐Oligosaccharide Soy Proteins

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant‐based proteins, such as soybean meal (SBM), have shown promising results in cultured species but also present challenges due to their nutrient composition and inherent antinutritional factors. This study investigated how the replacement of solvent‐extracted SBM with low oligosaccharide soybean meal (LSBM) or enzyme‐treated soybean meal ...

Genetic variability of anti-nutritional factors among soybean (Glycine max.) germplasm

Discover Agriculture
Soybean is a vital source of vegetable protein, carbohydrates, oil, and minerals. However, anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) can diminish its nutritional value for monogastric animals, including humans.

Progress in Breeding Low Phytate Crops [PDF]

The Journal of Nutrition, 2002
Populations that depend on grains and legumes as staple foods consume diets rich in phytic acid (myo-inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexkisphosphate), the storage form of phosphorus in seeds. This compound binds tightly to important mineral nutrients such as iron and zinc, forming salts that are largely excreted.
