Amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus) as an alternative crop for sustainable food production: Phenolic acids and flavonoids with potential impact on its nutraceutical quality

TL;DR: The objective of the present study was to analyze some physical and proximal-nutritional properties of amaranth seeds obtained from different varieties grown in arid zones and characterize their phenolic acids and flavonoids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proximate composition, phenolic acids, and flavonoids characterization of commercial and wild nopal (Opuntia spp.)

TL;DR: Differences in proximate composition were determined: wild nopal blanco collected from the High Plateau has the highest protein content, while tapon-II had the highest fiber content, and very low amounts of flavonoids were found in nopal tablets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bread from common cereal cultivars contains an important array of neglected bioactive benzoxazinoids

TL;DR: The identity and quantity of 10 compounds of the benzoxazinoid family are reported for the first time in mature grains, hydrothermally processed grains of durum wheat, a commercial variety of rye and an old Nordic rye landrace.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variations in the polyphenol content of seeds of field grown Amaranthus genotypes

TL;DR: In a cultivation experiment 18 different Amaranthus genotypes were cultivated in parallel in Argentina, Mexico, Spain and two different locations in the Czech Republic and the variations among genotype, species and location were analysed by principal component analysis (PCA).
Journal ArticleDOI

Allelochemicals in rye (Secale cereale L.): cultivar and tissue differences in the production of benzoxazinoids and phenolic acids.

TL;DR: A potential for breeding rye cultivars with a high content of biologically active secondary metabolites is revealed, however, growing conditions significantly influenced the level of these compounds.
