Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Low protein digestibility and lysine content of white sorghum grain limit its use as a foodstuff. The increase in γ-kafirin cross-linking, has an important role in the reduction of protein digestibility. The objective of this study was to characterize the γ-kafirin gene in 12 Mexican tannin-free white sorghum genotypes and its relationship with protein digestibility and lysine content. RESULTS: Two...
