Open AccessGenetic diversity in European Pisum germplasm collections
The distinctness of, and overlap between, pea genotypes held in several Pisum germplasm collections has been used to determine their relatedness and to test previous ideas about the genetic diversity of Pisum. Ou...

Achievements in breeding autumn-sown annual legumes for temperate regions with emphasis on the continental Balkans
Annual legumes represent one of the basic elements of the agriculture of Serbia. Until recently, only annual forage legumes such as pea or vetches were autumn-sown in Serbia and other neighbouring regions of t...

CAPs markers to assist selection for low vicine and convicine contents in faba bean (Vicia faba L.)
The antinutritional factors (ANFs) present in Vicia spp. seeds are a major constraint to the wider utilization of these crops as grain legumes. In the case of faba bean (Vicia faba L.), a breeding priority is the...

Map** of the nodulation loci sym9 and sym10 of pea (Pisum sativum L.)
Several mutants defective in the nodulation process during rhizobial or endomycorrhizal endosymbiosis of pea have been identified previously. We have integrated the map positions of two such nodulation mutatio...

Combinatorial variation in coding and promoter sequences of genes at the Tri locus in Pisum sativum accounts for variation in trypsin inhibitor activity in seeds
Cultivars of Pisum sativum that differ with respect to the quantitative expression of trypsin/chymotrypsin inhibitor proteins in seeds have been examined in terms of the structure of the corresponding genes. The...

Cerebral blood flow and neurological outcome in the preterm infant
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) studies have provided some insight into pathophysiological mechanisms of cerebral damage in newborn children; their value in predicting brain damage, however, remains elusive. The pu...

Effect of nitrogen nutrition pathways on the quality of nitrogen storage compounds in legumes
Legumes accumulate nitrogen from two main sources: biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) resulting from plant-Rhizobium symbiosis and nitrate assimilation (NA). Many field experiments have measured that more than 60...

How to Evaluate Slow Oxygenation Changes to Estimate Absolute Cerebral Haemoglobin Concentration by Near Infrared Spectrophotometry in Neonates
Brain injury is a major cause of long-term disability in newborn infants. Disturbed cerebral haemodynamics and oxygen supply may be important etiological factors, and these are currently investigated. Near inf...

Estimation of Cerebral Blood Volume and Transit Time in Neonates From Quick Oxygen Increases Measured by Near-Infrared Spectrophotometry
Quick oxygen increases are used to estimate the cerebral blood flow (cbf) or cerebral haemoglobin flow (cHbf) in neonates by near infrared spectrophotometry (NIRS) (Edwards et al, Skov et al., Bucher et al.). ...

Plant symbiotic mutants as a tool to analyse nitrogen nutrition and yield relationship in field-growth peas (Pisum sativum L.)
Pisum sativum L. is known for high seed and protein yields but also for.yield instability. Because legumes utilize two sources of nitrogen (atmospheric N2 fixed in nodules and assimilation of soil mineral N), st...
