    (2024-02-23) Pranshu Gupta; Dr Lalit Kumar Singh
    An experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2022-23 at Oilseed Research Form, Kalyanpur, Chandra Skekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur to study the “ Quality evaluation of different varieties/genotypes of lentil [Lens culinaris L]” The test weight ranges from 20.98 to 28.36g. Significantly highest test weight (28.36g) was observed in KLS-1469 and lowest test weight (20.98g) in KLS-1529 . The dahl recovery in whole grain in certaingenotypes/varieties of lentil ranged from 84.39 to 89.76 %. Lentil variety KLS-218 recorded maximum dhal recovery of 89.76% in whole grain followed by KLS- 1465, KLS-1520, IPL-518, KLS-1469, IPL-520, IPL-316, KLS-122, KLS- 1463, IPL-639, KLS-1522, KLS-320, IPL-534, KLS-1459, and KLS-1529. The minimum dahl recovery (84.39) was obtained in KLS- 1529. Certain genotypes/varieties of lentil showed variation in husk percent from 7.56 to 9.96%. The variety KLS-218 gave lowest mean value of husk than the other genotypes/varieties of lentil. Broken dhal recovery ranged from 1.59 to 3.68% and highest percentage was obtained in case of KLS-1459, whereas, the genotype/variety KLS-218 recorded lowest value for broken dhal per-cent. The lowest per-cent loss was obtained in KLS-218 (1.09%) whereas highest percent loss was recorded in lentil genotype/variety KLS-1529 (2.69%). Results revealed that the dhal protein content varied significantly from 20.06-24.89 per-cent, methionine content varied from 0.55 to 0.99mg/16gN and tryptophan content varied from 0.46 to 0.77mg/16gN) in certain genotypes/varieties of lentil. Significantly highest protein content (24.89%) in KLS-218, highest methionine content (0.92mg/16gN) in dahl was obtained in KLS-218 and significantly highest tryptophan content (0.77mg/16gN) was obtained in KLS-218. On the basis of results obtained in the present investigation, it may be concluded that out of the 15 varieties/genotypes of lentil, the variety KLS-1469 gave highest value in test weight and variety KLS-1522 gave lowest moisture content. Similarly, highest dhal recovery and lowest husk recovery was obtained in lentil variety KLS-218 as compared to rest of the varieties/genotypes of lentil, the significantly minimum broken dhal recovery was recorded in lentil variety KLS-218, whereas same variety KLS-218 was expressed lowest percentage loss in processing (in flour) Variety KLS-218 showed highest value of protein content in dhal, highest value of methionine content and highest value of tryptophan content. In respect of maximum dhal recovery, lowest husk percentage, maximum protein, methionine and tryptophan content in the variety KLS-218 was superior.

    An experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2022-23 at Oilseeds Research Farm, Kalyanpur, Chandra Skekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur to study the test weight, percentage of moisture, dhal recovery, husk recovery, loss in processing, broken dhal, protein, methionine, tryptophan. The test weight ranged from 33.55 to 47.12g. Significantly highest test weight (47.12g) was observed in IPM-2212 and lowest test weight (33.55g) in NM-1911. The dahl recovery in whole grain in certain genotypes/varieties of pigeon pea ranged from 68.17 to 77.11%. Mungbean variety KM-2241 recorded maximum dhal recovery of 77.11% in whole grain followed by KM- 2432,NM-1911,IPM-2110,KM-2418,KM-2436,KM-2429, KM2328, KM- 2342, KM-2195, KM-2435, KM-2437, IPM-2212, NM-2017 and KM-2430. The minimum dahl recovery (68.17%) was obtained in KM-2430. Some genotypes/ varieties of pigeon pea showed variation in husk per-cent from 7.61 to 11.99%. The variety KM-2241 gave lowest mean value of husk than the other genotypes/varieties of pigeon pea. Broken dhal recovery ranged from 8.22 to 12.87% and highest percentage was obtained in case of KM-2195 whereas the genotype/variety KM-2241 recorded lowest value of broken dhal. The lowest per-cent loss was obtained in KM-2241 (7.06%) whereas highest percent loss was recorded in pigeon pea genotype/variety IPM-2212 (11.29%). Results revealed that the dhal protein content varied significantly from 21.56-24.12 per-cent, methionine content varied from 1.14 to 1.42 mg/16gN and tryptophan content varied from 1.02 to 1.20 mg/16gN) in certain genotypes/ varieties of pigeon pea. Significantly highest contents of protein (24.12%), methionine (1.42mg/16gN) and tryptophan (1.20mg/16gN) in dhal was obtained in variety/ genotypes KM-2241. In respect of maximum dahl recovery, lowest husk percentage, protein and methionine content was superior most in genotype/ variety KM-2241.

    Biochemical evaluation on nutritional and antinutritional quality in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes
    (2023-12-24) Shakti Singh; Dr C L Maurya
    A meticulous field experiment transpired at the Seed Oil Research Farm of Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology in Kanpur, spanning the Rabi seasons of 2021-22 and 2022-23. The study's objective encompassed the intricate evaluation of diverse chickpea genotypes, and the trial encompassed 25 distinct varieties/genotypes. Employing a rigorous experimental design involving Randomized Block and Complete Randomized designs for field and laboratory assessments respectively, parameters were meticulously examined immediately post-harvest. These parameters encapsulated a wide range of attributes including moisture content, seed weight, volume and density, water absorption and expansion, swelling capacity and index, hydration capacity and index, recovery rates, husk integrity, processing loss, nutritional constituents, and antinutritional factors. The investigation unveiled compelling disparities within the parameters studied. Moisture content fluctuated from 3.26% to 7.02%, with AVRODHI attaining the highest and KGD-1168 the lowest values. Seed weight spanned 11.60 to 30.84 grams, wherein GNG-2144 showcased its potential for bold-seed candidacy. Noteworthy variations in water absorption, seed volume, and density were documented. Swelling capacity oscillated from 0.19 to 1.03 ml/seed, while protein content ranged from 20.14% to 23.32%. Husk recovery rates varied from 10.30% to 14.98%, emphasizing genotype-dependent disparities. Amino acid compositions were significantly variant, with leucine and isoleucine as prominent constituents. Iron, zinc, phosphorus, and phytic acid exhibited considerable variability among genotypes. The study's culmination underscored the extensive diversity within chickpea genotypes, vital for agricultural, nutritional, and industrial perspectives. The outcomes are anticipated to guide genotypic selection, harnessing chickpea's potential for improved utilization and nutritional enhancement.
