Arsenic-prone rice cultivars: a study in endemic region     

Anirban Biswas  Saroni Biswas  Rama Venkata Srikanth Lavu  Prakash Chandra Gupta  Subhas Chandra Santra 《Paddy and Water Environment》2014,12(3):379-386

Rice is prone to arsenic accumulation compared to other cereals as typically grown up under waterlogged situation favoring arsenic mobility. Arsenic in rice depends on arsenic availability to plants from irrigation water, even differs among cultivars and their plant parts. Present study was concentrated on arsenic accumulation in various plant parts of five common rice cultivars grown using irrigation water from different water sources in various fields in arsenic-endemic region. Additionally, dose response experiment under laboratory net house was conducted on the same cultivars excluding open environmental factors. The common cultivars were categorized according to high to low arsenic accumulator in rice grain, straw and root parts. The cultivar Shatabdi has shown highest arsenic accumulation in rice grain compared to other rice cultivars in fields and when grown at various soil arsenic doses. In field samples, a highest grain arsenic concentration ranged between 0.69 ± 0.04 and 0.78 ± 0.12 mg kg^?1 for Shatabdi, whereas lowest grain arsenic concentration ranged between 0.37 ± 0.07 and 0.41 ± 0.07 mg kg^?1 for the cultivars GB3 and Lalat. Speciation study detected more inorganic arsenic than organoarsenicals with a trend of arsenite > arsenate > DMA > MMA, which would be problem for consumers. The concluding remark is the characterization of common rice cultivars according to arsenic concentration to highlight an important remediation strand by changing to low arsenic cultivar.  相似文献

Amino acid profiles of some under-utilised seeds     

Dhan Prakash  R. K. Jain  P. S. Misra 《Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands)》1988,38(3):235-241

Twenty-three seeds of different botanical families growing in India were analysed for their protein content and amino acid compositions. They showed a wide variation in their total protein (8.0 to 42.7%). Some of them were comparable and some were even better than popular food legumes such as kidney bean and chick-pea in protein levels and amino acid compositions.  相似文献   

Protein and amino acid composition ofFagopyrum (buckwheat)     

Dhan Prakash  Prakash Narain  P. S. Misra 《Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands)》1987,36(4):341-344

Seven varieties of buckwheat, two Indian selections (F. esculentum, F. tetaricum) and five from Poland (Czernoplodna, Hruszowska, Jubilejna, Emka and Iskra) were cultivated under North Indian conditions and analysed for their protein and amino acid composition. The present studies revealed that European selections can also be successfully cultivated in India. Buckwheat is a good source of lysine, and some other essential amino acids.  相似文献

Influence of endosperm texture on milling,chemical composition and nutritive quality in maize     

Hari O. Gupta  Om Prakash  Joginder Singh 《Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands)》1989,39(3):235-243

Three maize varieties namely Vijay, SO/SN composite and Shakti, which differ in their nutritional quality and endosperm texture were processed to prepare semolina (sooji) and process-flour. The nutritional quality of these products was determined and compared with whole kernel flour of the respective variety. Distinct differences in milling and chemical composition of three varieties were recorded. In quality evaluation tests lysine and tryptophan content, biological value and true digestibility were better in semolina and process-flour. Moreover, decrease in acid value in semolina and process-flour compared with whole maize flour recorded in all the varieties suggested improvement in shelf-life.  相似文献   

Protein content and amino acid profile of some wild leguminous seeds     

Dhan Prakash  P. S. Misra 《Plant foods for human nutrition (Dordrecht, Netherlands)》1988,38(1):61-65

Seeds of 28 wild growing legumes of India were analysed for their protein content and amino acid compositions. A wide variation was observed in protein contents (18.3 to 50.9%). The amino acid composition and protein content of some of these seeds were in close proximity to that of soybean; however, some legumes registered a higher level of certain amino acids and protein as compared to the latter.  相似文献   

Prospects and challenges in utilization of indigenous rocks and minerals as source of potassium in farming     

Abhay Omprakash Shirale  Bharat Prakash Meena  Priya Pandurang Gurav  Sanjay Srivastava  Ashis Kumar Biswas  Jyoti Kumar Thakur 《Journal of plant nutrition》2013,36(19):2682-2701

Potassium (K) is one of the essential nutrients required by crops in large quantities; however, its use in agriculture by farmers is less than required in developing countries. This neglect has led to excess mining of K in soils by crop plants and has resulted in a negative balance of K in soils. This loss necessitates the need of more use of potassium fertilizers in agriculture. Rocks and minerals offer a potential fertilizer to utilize in agriculture as source of K. The crop trials revealed that feldspar, mica, glauconite, nepheline and shoenite are good sources of K for crops, especially in highly weathered acid soils. However, some researchers have reported no agronomic benefit of feldspar or granite rock application to crops. Overall the size modification, acidulation, microbial inoculants and preparation of K-enriched compost are the effective techniques to utilize K-bearing rocks and minerals. Very limited information is available on these aspects. Thus, in this review, an attempt has been to consolidate up-to-date information of indigenous rocks and minerals as possibilities for alternate sources of K for crop plants. Moreover, this area of research needs attention to utilize indigenous K sources, which can aid to limit the import and cost, of the establishment of potash fertilizer-based industries in developing countries.  相似文献   

Effect of zinc application methods on apparent utilization efficiency of zinc and phosphorus fertilizers under basmati rice–wheat rotation     

Prakash Chandra Srivastava  Manoj Bhatt  Satya Pratap Pachauri  Arvind Kumar Tyagi 《Archives of Agronomy and Soil Science》2013,59(1):33-48

To examine the effect of zinc (Zn) application method on the utilization of phosphorus (P) from applied P fertilizer, a field experiment was conducted on basmati rice–wheat rotation with combinations of Zn levels (0, soil application of 2.5 kg Zn ha ^{– 1} and two foliar applications of 2.0 kg Zn ha ^–1) and P levels (0, soil application of 8.7, 17.5 and 26.2 kg P ha ^–1). The highest pooled grain yields of basmati rice and wheat were obtained with soil application of 17.5 kg P ha ^–1 and foliar applications of 2 kg Zn ha ^–1. Foliar applications of Zn increased the P concentration in grain and straw and the total P uptake by basmati rice and the P concentration in flag leaves of wheat significantly, while soil or foliar application of Zn increased the total P uptake of wheat. Phosphorus application increased the Zn concentration in flag leaves, grain and straw of basmati rice and in grain and straw of wheat and the total Zn uptake of both crops. Phosphorus levels up to 17.5 kg P ha ^–1 increased utilization efficiency of soil or foliar application of Zn. Zinc application increased the P utilization efficiency of basmati rice and wheat up to 17.5 kg P ha ^–1 level; foliar Zn application was more effective in a wheat crop than a rice crop.  相似文献
