Biochemical screening of antinutritional factors in desi and kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) germplasm

Abstract

The present investigation was carried out in thirty distinct (desi and kabuli) chickpea garmplasm namely KWR 108, BG 547, PDG 84-16,Phule G-5, HC 3,BG 362,SBD 377,JAKI 9218, Rajush ICCV 88105, Vijay, IPC 97-72, BG 5058,ICCV 05107,IPC 2004-52,Virat, KAK 2,BG 1003,JGKI,BG 1053,BG 267,L 550, HK 94-134, ICC 3137, GNG 2237, Phule G 0625-9, CSJK 77, NDGK 99-9 NDGK 98-8IPCK 2009-145. All the chickpea germplasms showed wide variability in there antinutrient content regarding phytic acid, tannin and total phenol content which were recorded maximum in desi genotype followed by kabuli germplasm. The phytic acid (mg/g), tannin (mg/g) and total phenol content where noticed between 10.52-12.71, 4.67-4.83 and 71.23-107.40. The phytic acid tannin and total phenol of kabuli germplams where reported from 10.35-11.16 (mg/g), 4.53-4.72 (mg/g) and 95.37-68.23(mg/100g). Minimum phytic acid, tannin, total phenol content observed in Vijay, KWR 108 and KWR 108 in desi gerplasm. The minimum phytic acid tannin and total phenol content where found in BG 1003 followed by CSJK 77.
