phenolics and enzyme inhibitors of grass pea (Lttthyrus sativus). Can. J. Plant Sci.72: 1037Sci.72: -1047 Genotypic variability in the neurotoxin, beta-N-oxalyl-amino-L-alanine (BOAA), condensed tannins and phenolics, and protein inhibitors of trypsin, chymotrypsin and alpha-amylase was investigated in 100 lines of Lctthyrus sctivr.rs (grass pea) germplasm maintained at the Morden Research Station. The ranges for these antinutrients (overall means in the parentheses) were as follows: 'SOnnO.UU-;.20(2.g5tg,kg'.taninscondenses0.0-4.38rt.tlr gkgr.inhibiteursdelatrypsine 133 174 ll55t unit6s mg -'. inhibiteur de Ia chymotrypsine 0-23 ( l0) unitds mg -'. et inhibiteur de alpha-amylase 3,6 91,4 (35,2)unites g-'. Les reneurs en tanins condens6s 6taient positivement corr6l6es avec la pigmentation du t6gument s6minal et dtaient particulidrement 61ev6es chez les g6notypes plus co1or6s. Le large 6cart observ6 pour ces composds laisse supposer qu'il serait possible d'axer la s6lection sur des g6notypes h faibles concentrations de ces substances antinutritionnelles. Bien que les concentrations des inhibiteurs de la chymotrypsine et de I'alpha-amylase soient probablement trop basses pour poser des probldmes s6rieux pour la nutrition des animaux ou de l'homme, dans le cas il faudra trier un mat6riel gdn6tique plus vari6 afin de trouver des g6notypes contenant des concentrations faibles ou nulles de I'inhibiteur de la trypsine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
