Description

REFqPCR2016014-1.JPG
  • Chickpea is an important food legume of the semi-arid tropical (SAT) regions of the world, known to be a nutraceutical (or health benefiting food) because of its high nutritional value. Despite growing demand and high yield potential, chickpea yield is unstable and productivity is stagnant at unacceptably low levels due to constraints such as abiotic stresses (drought, heat, cold and high-salinity) and biotic stresses (Ascochyta blight, Fusarium wilt and pod borer).
  • chickpeas germinated in presence of sodium metavanadate increased 32% and 11% the formononetin and biochanin A contents, respectively. Also a combination of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate, used during chickpea soaking before 4 germination days, increased the concentration of ononin, daidzein and biochanin A glucoside by 71%, 11% and 13%, respectively, compared with the germinated control.
