“…In the opinion of Alghamdi et al (2014), different lentil genotypes show large variation in seed amino acid content, which was confirmed in the present study. The 'Anita' variety was characterized by a significantly higher content of most of the amino acids evaluated.…”

“…Hefnawy (2011) also determined the highest content of glutamine in lentil seeds. Alghamdi et al (2014) drew special attention to arginine content, which was quite high in all lentil genotypes evaluated, ranging from 6.6 to 10 g kg -1 . In turn, Kahraman (2016) …”

“…The lentil (Lens culinaris Medic.) is one of the oldest cultivated plants (Alghamdi et al, 2014;Kahraman, 2016). The chemical composition of lentil seeds meets the "ideal diet" requirements because they contain little fat (about 0.7-3.4%) and a lot of protein (21-29%) of high nutritional value (Ionescu and Roman, 2013;Alghamdi et al, 2014).…”

“…This species has low soil, fertilizer and water requirements. It is a valuable component of crop rotation that improves the stand for the succeeding crop (Zawieja, 2006;Żabiński, 2008;Alghamdi et al, 2014). It is worth mentioning that Fabaceae plants have the ability to live in symbiosis with rhizobia that fix free atmospheric nitrogen.…”

Abstract. The field experiment was conducted to evaluate how row intercropping of the lentil with naked oats as a supporting plant impacts macro-and micronutrient content of two lentil varieties 'Tina' and 'Anita' as well as a mixture of these two varieties. Additionally, amino acid content and fatty acid composition of lentil seeds were determined. Lentil was sown at a row spacing of 20 and 25 cm. In var. 'Tina' seeds, a higher content of K, Ca, Mg, Mn and B was determined than in var. 'Anita'. 'Anita' seeds, in turn, were characterized by a higher content of fat, N, P, Cu, Zn and Fe. Lentil seeds sown at a spacing of 20 cm had a higher content of P, K, Ca, Cu, Zn and B compared to a spacing of 25 cm, but they contained less nitrogen. The presence of oats as a supporting crop deteriorated the quality of lentil seeds by contributing to a reduced content of N, P, K, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe and B compared to sole cropped lentil. A higher content of C18:0, C18:2, C18:3, C20:0, OMEGA 3, and OMEGA 6 acids was determined in 'Anita' seeds. Var. 'Tina', in turn, contained more C16:0, C18:1 acids. In 'Anita' seeds, the content of most evaluated amino acids was determined to be significantly higher than in 'Tina' seeds.

Population size, genetic diversity, and performance have fundamental importance for ecology, evolution, and nature conservation of plant species. Despite well‐studied relationships among environmental, genetic, and intraspecific trait variation (ITV), the influence of population size on these aspects is less understood. To assess the sources of population size variation, but also its impact on genetic, functional trait, and performance aspects, we conducted detailed population size estimations, assessed 23 abiotic and biotic environmental habitat factors, performed population genetic analyses using nine microsatellite markers, and recorded nine functional traits based on 260 Trifolium montanum individuals from 13 semi‐dry grassland locations of Central Europe. Modern statistical analyses based on a multivariate framework (path analysis) with preselected linear regression models revealed that the variation of abiotic factors (in contrast to factors per se) almost completely, significantly explained fluctuations in population size (R2 = .93). In general, abiotic habitat variation (heterogeneity) was not affected by habitat area. Population size significantly explained genetic diversity (NA: R2 = .42, Ho: R2 = .67, He: R2 = .43, and I: R2 = .59), inbreeding (FIS: R2 = .35), and differentiation (GST: R2 = .20). We also found that iFDCV (ITV) was significantly explained by abiotic habitat heterogeneity, and to a lesser extent by genetic diversity He (R2 = .81). Nevertheless, habitat heterogeneity did not statistically affect genetic diversity. This may be due to the use of selectively neutral microsatellite markers, and possibly by insufficient abiotic selective pressures on habitats examined. Small T. montanum populations in nonoptimal habitats were characterized by reduced genetic and functional trait diversity, and elevated genetic inbreeding and differentiation. This indicates reduced adaptability to current and future environmental changes. The long‐term survival of small populations with reduced genetic diversity and beginning inbreeding will be highly dependent on habitat protection and adequate land‐use actions.
