Chickpea proteins for food applications
The potential applications of chickpea proteins (Cicer arietinum L. cv Kaniva) as food ingredients have been investigated and presented in three major parts of this thesis. The first part identified different extraction conditions and their effects on the extraction yield and characteristics of the …

Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFO) biosynthesis in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) seeds
To increase the global acceptability of chickpea by improving its nutritional quality, seed RFO (Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides) concentration needs to be reduced without affecting their role during seed development and positive impact on human health. To achieve this objective, the key …

The use of Cicer reticulatum L. for genetic improvement of cultivated chickpea
The diverse gene pool of wild chickpea (Cicer reticulatum L.) has the potential for use to improve a range of agronomically important traits in cultivated chickpea. This study was conducted to evaluate the phenotypic and genetic variations of 486 lines derived from interspecific crosses between C. …

Canopy Architecture and Plant Density Effect in Short-Season Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) production on the semi-arid Canadian Prairies is challenging due to a short growing season and low and variable moisture. The current recommended chickpea population density of 44 plants m-2 is based on preliminary studies and a narrow range of 20 to 50 plants m-2. The …

The modification of nutritional and functional properties of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) by germination.
Chickpea (Cicer Arietinum) was germinated for different lengths of time to determine the influence of germination on the functional and nutritional properties of this legume. Chemical analysis of the flours showed a very significant increase in vitamin C and in lysine during germination. Vitamin C …

Effect of genotype and phosphorus fertilizer rates on water use and yield of chickpea
Production of chickpea in South Africa is currently insignificant but local demand is high. There are no recommendations on suitable genotypes of chickpea and agronomic practices at present. This study aimed at evaluating the effect of genotype and phosphorus (P) fertilizer rates on water use and …

FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY OF FUNGI ASSOCIATED WITH DURUM WHEAT ROOTS IN DIFFERENT CROPPING SYSTEMS
Differences in pea (Pisum sativum L.) and chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) microbial compatibility and/ or their associated farming practices may influence root fungi of the following crop and affect the yield. The main objective of this research was to explain the difference in durum wheat (Triticum …

Hydrocyclone fractionation of chickpea flour and measurement of physical and functional properties of flour and starch and protein fractions
Chickpea grain contains a high amount of starch and valuable protein. Many grain legumes (pulses) can be processed by pin milling and air classification with high separation efficiency. However, chickpea exhibits low separation efficiency because it has a relatively high fat content compared to …
