Kinetics of phytate adsorption and response of phosphorus forms initially present in alkaline soils

Geoderma
Aims: Although phytate is the most abundant organic P compound in soil, its sorption makes it poorly bioavailable through enzymatic hydrolysis. The sustainable use of the P resource in agriculture will require improving the supply of P to plants from ...

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.

Phytase for Food Application

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2006
Phytase [myo-inositol(1,2,3,4,5,6)hexakisphosphate phosphohydrolase], a phytate-specific phosphatase, is already used as a supplement in diets for monogastric animals to improvephosphate utilisation from phytate[myoinositol(1,2,3,4,5,6)hexakisphosphate],

Content of phytic acid in selected sorts of legumes

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010
The aim of this study was to determine the content of phytic acid (phytate) in soybeans (Glycine max), yellow shelled peas (Pisum sativum) and lentil (Lens esculenta). Dry seeds were grounded to a fine powder.

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 ...

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

Unveiling contrasting iron efficiency strategies in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes under iron deficiency

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Common bean genotypes differ in their iron acquisition through distinct Strategy I responses and root exudation patterns. Abstract Iron (Fe) deficiency in food crops, particularly on calcareous soils, limits productivity and human nutrition. This study investigated two common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) genotypes, Guaymí (high Fe‐accumulating, HI) and ...

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.

The use of edible insects in human food

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 5775-5787, 15 August 2026.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...
