20.500.12556/RUL-134927 Breeding buckwheat for increased levels and improved quality of protein Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum (L.) Gaertn.) and common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) are important sources of proteins with balanced amino-acid compositions, and thus of high nutritional value. The polyphenols naturally present in Tartary buckwheat and common buckwheat lower the true digestibility of the proteins. Digestion-resistant peptides are a vehicle for fecal excretion of steroids, and in this way, for bile acid elimination and reduction of cholesterol concentrations in serum. Buckwheat proteins are more effective compared to soy proteins for the prevention of gallstone formation. Tartary and common buckwheat grain that contains appropriate amounts of selenium-containing amino acids can be produced as functional food products. The protein-rich by-products of buckwheat are a good source of bioactive substances that can suppress colon carcinogenesis by reducing cell proliferation. The grain embryo is a rich source of proteins, so breeding buckwheat with larger embryos is a possible strategy to increase protein levels in Tartary and common buckwheat grain. However, chemical analysis of the grain is the most relevant criterion for assessing grain protein levels and quality. buckwheat breeding proteins digestibility flavonoids nutritional value tatarska ajda navadna ajda žlahtnjenje rastlin bioaktivne snovi proteini prebavljivost flavonoidi hranilna vrednost true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2022-02-11 11:13:55 2022-02-11 11:13:56 2022-09-14 04:10:43 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 12 str. iss. 1, art. 14 Vol. 10 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 633 2223-7747 10.3390/plants10010014 44524547 RAZ_Luthar_Zlata_2021.pdf RAZ_Luthar_Zlata_2021.pdf 1 B24DAEBA4A995BA90CFA2C9AD48C9ACE feea19d6190052659f017f05d355b30d8502c033a434be05d208790545fe3634 79fce7bd-8b23-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=153679 https://www.mdpi.com/2223-7747/10/1/14 0 4ebe03d4-8b23-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=153678 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
