“…Notably, the most substantial increase in proline content was observed in PEG-II, followed by PEG-I, when compared to the control. Similar findings regarding the increase in proline content under high PEG concentrations were reported in Lathyrus by Piwowarczyk et al (2014), Tokarz et al (2020), Parsa et al (2023), as well as in Thymus vulgaris L. by Piwowarczyk et al (2017); Razavizadeh et al (2019). During the seedling stage, after the removal of drought stress, the proline content persisted within a range that varied from 9.94 ± 1.06 (Mahateora) to 14.94 ± 1.12 (P-24) under normal conditions.…”

“…Lathyrus demonstrates unique abilities such as nitrogen fixation (Mekonen et al 2022), temperature tolerance (Das et al 2021), drought tolerance (Parsa et al 2023), and the ability to thrive in poor soil conditions (Assefa and Bitew 2023). When incorporated into the soil, Lathyrus functions as an exceptional green manure, generating substantial quantities of nitrogen and biomass (Jeromela et al 2017).…”

“…Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.), an annual legume crop with a remarkable ability to withstand drought, harks back to the Neolithic era and falls within the Fabaceae subfamily Papilionoideae. Cultivated for purposes such as animal feed (Parsa et al 2023), human consumption, and bioethanol production (Tesfaw et al 2021), it stands as an underutilized yet cost-effective protein source, boasting protein levels ranging from 18% to 34% in seeds and 17% in mature leaves (Lambein et al 2019). These values surpass those of lupine (Lupinus albus L.) (32%), faba bean (Vicia faba L.) (24%), and field pea [Pisum sativum subsp.…”

The experiment aimed to investigate the impact of polyethylene glycol (PEG) treatments, specifically 0% (control), 15% (PEG-I), and 20% (PEG-II), on various seed quality traits, proline content, and morpho-physiological traits at both the seed (9 days) and seedling stage (18 days) in five Lathyrus genotypes and to relate the ISSR markers based molecular characterization of these genotypes osmotic stress. The results unveiled substantial phenotypic and molecular diversity among the accessions concerning morpho-physiological and seed quality traits. Ratan variety exhibited promise as it demonstrated a higher germination percentage (G%) at 62.78±2.42% for PEG-I and 13.33±0.10% for PEG-II, along with a lower mean germination time (MGT) of 3.80±0.071 days for PEG-I and 7.33±0.16 days for PEG-II. P-24 showcased the highest seed vigour index-I (SVI-I) at 872.06±27.02 for PEG-I, whereas Nirmal recorded the highest SVI-I at 80.03±8.53 for PEG-II. Notably, Nirmal displayed the lowest proline content, expressed as μmol per gram of fresh weight (52.45±6.27 units for PEG-I and 111.37±4.75 units for PEG-II) at the seed stage. For the seedling stage, Ratan exhibited the lowest proline content, expressed as μmol per gram of fresh weight (14.18±1.09 units for PEG-I and 10.67±0.851 units for PEG-II). Prateek demonstrated higher seedling length (42.00±1.44 cm for PEG-I and 45.88±0.30 cm for PEG-II), as well as root length (14.11±0.84 cm for PEG-I and 21.29±1.59 cm). Principal component analysis (PCA) highlighted that the most influential variables contributing to the highest variability in the PCA included SVI-I, MGT, and seedling length. Molecular characterization employing ISSR markers resulted in three clusters: CI (Ratan), CII (Pusa-24 and Mahateora), and CIII (Prateek and Nirmal), based on the genetic similarity coefficient. These genotypes exhibit the potential to be recommended and utilized in breeding programs for developing drought-tolerant Lathyrus germplasm.

The study found that C. spicatus extract had a beneficial effect on body weight and blood glucose levels in diabetic rats. Additionally, the extract contained polyphenol compounds with antioxidant, enzyme inhibition, and antiglycation activity. The blood glucose levels of the experimental groups were measured over a 28-day period, and the lipid profile was also assessed. The important result of this study is that the plant extract from C.spicatus was able to recover the antioxidant activity parameters, as well as improve the activity of glycolysis enzymes in the kidney of diabetic rats. This suggests that the plant extract has potential as a natural remedy for diabetes and its complications. Diabetic control + C.spicatus 500 mg/kg at 0.99 ± 0.05ab, Pyruvate kinase as a normal control at 20.01 ± 0.05a and 14.41 ± 1.2c, and Glucose-6-Phosphatase Dehydrogenase as a normal control at 0.52 ± 0.02a and Diabetic control + C.spicatus 500 mg/kg at 0.66 ± 0.05c. The study found that the C. spicatus leaf extract was effective in improving the antioxidant activity of important parameters such as SOD, CAT, GPx, and GR, and protected against hyperglycemia and oxidative damage in type 2 diabetes-induced hepatorenal functions both in vitro and in vivo. The kidney glycolysis enzymes, Hexokinase, Pyruvate kinase, and Glucose-6-Phosphatase Dehydrogenase, also showed improvement in the experimental group. Overall, the C. spicatus leaf extract proved to be effective in protecting against hyperglycemia and oxidative damage in type 2 diabetes-induced hepatorenal functions in both in vitro and in vivo studies.
