Quality Traits of Green Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) Cultivars and Lines
Abstract
This study was conducted to determine mineral composition (K, Ca, Mg, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo and Zn) and some other quality traits of 9 different lentil cultivars and lines under Yozgat conditions between the years 2014-2016. Experiments were conducted in randomized complete block designs with 3 replications. As the average of the years, ash ratios of the cultivars and lines varied between 2.87-3.56%, protein ratios between 27.3-31.2%, starch ratios between 45.1-47.3%, amylose ratios between 10.7-12.9%, K contents between 786.3-904.7 mg 100g-1, Ca contents between 75.2-84.7 mg 100g-1, Mg contents between 66.2-78.5 mg 100g-1, Cu contents between 0.76-1.01 mg 100g-1, Fe contents between 5.49-7.19 mg 100g-1, Mn contents between 1.11-1.50 mg 100g-1, Zn contents between 3.63-3.97 mg 100g-1, Mo contents between 0.30-0.38 mg 100g-1, thousand grain weights between 32.4-55.1 g, seed coat ratio between 8.30-9.23%, water absorption capacity between 0.032-0.064 g seed-1, swelling capacities between 0.023-0.055 ml seed-1, unit volume weight between 1.05-1.30 g ml-1 and hydration capacities between 98.5-117.65. Among the investigated genotypes, Local 1 was prominent with desired quality attributes.
