HSQC‐NMR‐based profiling approaches for raffinose family oligosaccharides in pulses

Cereal Chemistry, 2022
AbstractBackground and ObjectivesDue to insufficient resolution, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy‐based methods are limited to quantify carbohydrates. In the past, heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC)‐based methods were demonstrated to be superior as the second dimension greatly improves resolution.

Stem Carbohydrate Richness in Two Cycad Species

HortScience, 2023
The pachycaulous stem of cycad plants enables the storage of abundant nonstructural carbohydrates. Cycas revoluta Thunb. and Zamia furfuracea L.f. stems were analyzed for starch and 15 sugars to determine carbohydrate richness.

Mutations modulate soluble carbohydrates composition in seeds of Lathyrus sativus L.

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2011
Seeds of Lathyrus sativus cv. Derek and Krab were used as biological material for induced mutagenesis. Three mutant lines were obtained from seeds of grass pea cv. Derek and 15 lines from mutagenised seeds of cv. Krab.

Alterations in Carbohydrate Quantities in Freeze-Dried, Relative to Fresh or Frozen Maize Leaf Disks

Biomolecules, 2023
For various reasons, leaves are occasionally lyophilized prior to storage at −80 °C and preparing extracts. Soluble carbohydrate identity and quantity from maize leaf disks were ascertained in two separate years using anion exchange HPLC with pulsed ...

Carbohydrates digestibility and faecal microbiota composition in rats fed diets based on raw or fermented Vigna unguiculata seed meal as the only protein source

Food Chemistry Advances, 2022
: Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) value as a functional food is still quite underexplored. Weaned Wistar albino rats were fed one of four experimental equilibrated diets based on casein or cowpea meal as the only protein sources.

Do aphid endosymbiotic bacteria influence parasitoid searching behaviour through changes in aphid honeydew production?

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Functional and transcriptomic analyses in Neurospora crassa reveal a crucial role for the N‐glycoprotein deglycosylation process in fungal homeostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In Neurospora crassa, a cytosolic GH18 endo‐β‐n‐acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) functions as an active deglycosylating enzyme. Deletion of this severely alters tolerance to multiple stress conditions and causes extensive transcriptomic reprogramming, including upregulation of a GH20 exo‐β‐n‐acetylhexosaminidase under ER stress, indicating that N. crassa

Determinants of raffinose family oligosaccharide use in Bacteroides species

Journal of Bacteriology
ABSTRACT Bacteroides species are successful colonizers of the human colon and can utilize a wide variety of complex polysaccharides and oligosaccharides that are indigestible by the host. To do this, they use enzymes encoded in polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs). While recent work has

Advancing Thermotolerance in Beans: Integrating Physiology, Genomics, and Breeding for Climate Adaptation

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rising global temperatures increasingly threaten bean production and the food security of millions of people who depend on these protein‐rich legumes. Heat stress during the reproductive stages induces pollen sterility, flower abscission, and disruptions in source–sink relationships, resulting in yield losses of 30%–40% or more when critical ...

Black Chickpea Landraces as a Sustainable Protein Source: Physicochemical, Nutritional, and Technological Properties

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Neglected legume landraces represent valuable genetic resources for sustainable food systems, yet their compositional and technological properties remain poorly explored. This study comprehensively characterized the flours obtained from two Sicilian black chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) landraces, Rough Black Chickpeas (RBC) and Smooth Black ...
