2017-11-01
Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to assess the productive and qualitative traits of seeds of six guar genotypes coming from India, South Africa and the USA, grown in a Mediterranean environment, both for industrial use (galactomannans) and as animal feed (guar meal). Yield of the six varieties ranged from 1.49tha−1 to 2.05tha−1. Galactomannan content reached values from 28.6g/100g to 34.6g/100g with the highest significa...
