Manipulation of Seed Carbon Flow from Cellulose to Lipid and Protein Biosynthesis in Arabidopsis to Accelerate the Characterization of Protein-Related Genes in Canola
DownloadFall 2023
Canola (Brassica napus L.) is the major oilseed crop in Canada. After oil extraction, the protein-rich seed meal (around 40% protein) serves as a nutritious feedstock for animals and the protein fraction has potential for human consumption. However, excess fiber in the seed meal (about 33%) can...

Novel mild fractionation of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) and physicochemical and functional characterization of protein as a food ingredient
DownloadFall 2023
Alternative planet-friendly protein sources are increasingly acknowledged as a sustainable solution to supplement the global animal-derived protein demand. Among the pulses, faba bean (Vicia faba L.) has such potential. The isolation of faba bean protein can minimise the anti-nutritional,...
