The Gln15Arg mutation in the transcriptional factor PALM1 produces multifoliate alfalfa by Gomez, Maria Cristina, Jozefkowicz, Cintia, Mozzicafreddo, Matteo, Odorizzi, Ariel, Arolfo, Valeria, Basigalup, Daniel Horacio, Ayub, Nicolás Daniel, Soto, Gabriela Cynthia

“…Specifically, we showed that the mutation of the conserved glutamine 15 of the transcriptional factor PALM1 to arginine produces heptafoliate leaves in alfalfa, improving its digestibility and nutritional quality. Finally, we discuss the potential use of this mutation to rapidly generate transgenic-free legume forages with higher nutritional value via adenine base editors.…”

La composición química de diversas clases de banano y el uso de harinas de banano en la alimentación de pollos by Bressani, R., Aguirre, A., Arroyave, R., Jarquin, R.

“…This paper reports on the chemical composition of six samples of Musa finits and of dehydrated green banana flom analyzed with and without the skin The chemical composition of the flour suggested that this material could replace con in sations for animal feeding because of its similarity to coun The nutritive value of banana flour as a substitute for corn in rations for chickens was tested From the results of three separate trials, it was concluded that flours from green bananas were nutritionally better than those prepared from ripe bananas, and that green banana floms without skin are, in general, superior to those prepared with the skin The results also indicate that high levels of banana flours depress growth and significantly reduce feed efficiences. …”
