Plant‐based protein crops and their improvement: Current status and future perspectives
Abstract The plant‐based protein industry is rapidly growing and is projected to grow to over $27 billion by 2030. In addition to monetary benefits, plant‐based protein crops, particularly pulse crops (i.e., legume species with dry edible seed), can supplement the existing crop biodiversity and break the disease and insect pest cycle in drastically ...

ABSTRACT In this study, we evaluated the substitution effect of cowpea silage as a replacement for commercial feed on the nutrition and health of goats being fed for maintenance. First, the nutrient loss and ruminal fermentation characteristics of wilted cowpea forage ensiled (EC) or not ensiled (NEC) were tested in vitro.

Proline Tagging for Stress Tolerance in Plants
In environments with high levels of stress conditions, plants accumulate various metabolic products under stress conditions. Among these products, amino acids have a cardinal role in supporting and maintaining plant developmental processes. The increase in proline content and stress tolerance in plants has been found optimistic, suggesting the ...

The Brine-Grading of Pigeonpeas
The possibility of using brine-grading to improve the quality of canned pigeonpeas by separating the overmature yellow from the more tender green pigeonpeas was investigated. The results obtained show that brine-grading separated pigeonpeas into two groups, floaters and sinkers, the floaters being less developed than the sinkers, which were the more ...
