onobrychis/carbohydrate

Background: Perennial legumes cultivated under irrigation in the Mountain West USA have non-fibrous carbohydrate (NFC) concentrations exceeding 400 g kg^-1 , a level commonly found in concentrate-based ruminant diets. Our

A lectin isolated from the seeds of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia, Scop. var Eski) has been shown to be a glycoprotein containing 2.6% (w/w) neutral carbohydrate and 1.6% (w/w) glucosamine (Hapner, K.D. and Robbins, J.E. (1979) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 580, 186--197) A homogeneous glycopeptide

A glycoprotein capable of binding simple carbohydrates and causing hemagglutination has been isolated from seeds of the legume plant sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia, Scop. var Eski). The phytolectin was prepared by affinity chromatography of pH 7.0 sodium phosphate extracts on columns of

Mutagenesis provoked by exposure at elevated temperature of the cold-adapted, arctic Rhizobium strain N31 resulted in the generation of five deletion mutants, which exhibited loss of their smaller plasmid (200 kb), whereas the larger plasmid (> 500 kb) was still present in all mutants. Deletion

The present study investigated the bacterial community, metabolome and biotransformation of phenolic compounds in sainfoin silage inoculated either with or without Lactobacillus plantarum. Our results revealed that the epiphytic microbiota of wilted sainfoin mainly comprised Acinetobacter,

The D-mannose specific lectin from sainfoin was prepared by affinity chromatography on Sephadex G-75, and its circular dichroism (CD), metal content, antigenic character, and N-terminal amino acid sequence were compared with those of four lectins from Vicieae plants and concanavalin A. The sainfoin

Growing public concerns about health haves prompted the search for novel food sources. The study is focused on the seeds, sprouted seeds and microgreens of Trifolium pratense, T. medium, Medicago sativa, M. lupulina, Onobrychis viciifolia, Astragalus glycyphyllos and A.
