1. 1. Phenolic content in cereals and legumes. Influence of processing and effect on in vitro availability

   Författare :Elifatio E Towo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tannins; galloyls; cereals; polyphenol oxidase; catechols; phytase; polyphenols; phytate; iron binding phenols; legumes; in vitro iron availability;

   Sammanfattning : Iron deficiency anaemia is highly prevalent in Tanzania, and one of the major causes is the low bioavailability of iron in the plant food staple diet. Cereals and legumes contain large amounts of compounds that inhibit iron absorption, e.g. LÄS MER

3. 2. Conservation of transcription factors in infected cells of nitrogen-fixing root nodules

   Författare :Behnoosh Rashidi; Katharina Pawlowski; Karsten Niehaus; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; root nodules; actinorhiza; legumes; infection thread; Frankia; subtilase; leghemoglobin; chitinase; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; Plant Physiology; växtfysiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Infected cells of nitrogen-fixing root nodules are the only plant cells that can stably internally accommodate a eubacterial symbiont. In the context of studying the differentiation of infected cells, we set about to analyse the conservation of infected cell-specific transcription factors using altogether four different promoters from genes showing infected cell-specific expression, or nodule-specific expression.

4. 3. The development of novel foods from Swedish pulses : Raw material composition and processing effects

   Författare :Ferawati Ferawati; Cornelia M. Witthöft; Susanna Kariluoto; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; legumes; pulse flour; functional properties; dietary fibre; folate; volatile compounds; cheese analogue; protein isolate; high-moisture extrusion; meat analogue.; Livsmedelsvetenskap; Food Science;

   Sammanfattning : A gradual shift towards a healthier and more sustainable diet with a higher quantity of plant-based products is suggested to be one of the most efficient ways to alleviate environmental pressure from the current food system. Pulses could play a crucial role in this shift due to the multi-faceted benefits they have on the environment and human health. LÄS MER

5. 4. Integrating legumes in mixed crop-livestock systems in east Africa: Farmers' perceptions, ecosystem services and support for decision making

   Författare :Tarirai Muoni; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Challenges faced by smallholder farmers in east Africa include limited access to inputs, small farm sizes, and erratic rainfall patterns. Legume intensification and species diversification have been recommended for improving food and nutritional security, controlling soil erosion, improving soil fertility, supplying income and providing fuel.

7. 5. Nutrient supply to reed canary grass as a bioenergy crop : intercropping with legumes and fertilisation strategies for phosphorus and potassium

   Författare :Eva Lindvall; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Growing energy demand and global warming are promoting research into potential new sources of renewable energy. Fossil fuels need to be replaced with sustainable energy sources to decrease emissions of greenhouse gases. Production of bioenergy from herbaceous crops on agricultural land is one alternative.
