Nutritional and physicochemical variation in Turkish kabuli chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.) landraces

摘要: We examined the physical, physicochemical, and cooking properties of 91 kabuli chickpea landraces from Turkey, using two cultivars (Inci Izmir-92) as controls. All were grown under same agroclimatic conditions to eliminate variance caused by genotype × environment interactions. There was high diversity among in contents protein (17.55–23.31%), fat (4.45–6.11%), ash (2.54–3.41%), fiber (2.03–4.18%), starch (41.76–49.07%), moisture (6.39–10.57%), 100-seed weight (25.03–51.67 g), hydration capacity (0.2585–0.6169 g/ml), swelling index (0.7207–1.1859), (0.15–0.32 ml seed−1), time (33–72 min), seed density (0.8450–1.4800 g/ml). Regional analysis showed significant differences with respect nutritional characteristics parameters. also relationships between various quality Together, our results provide an initial step toward identification that may be useful for development high-quality cultivars.
