Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Parts I and II of this series of papers identified several associations between the ease of milling and the chemical compositions of different chickpea seed fractions. Non-starch polysaccharides were implicated; hence, this study examines the free sugars and sugar residues. RESULTS: Difficult milling is associated with: (1) lower glucose and xylose residues (less cellulose and xyloglucans) and more...
