This book is the result of a combined effort from scientists covering many disciplines interacting within a European Union-funded Copernicus project entitled 'Carbohydrate Biotechnology Network for Grain Legumes' (CABINET). The CABINET project linked 30 participants from 14 countries across Europe, including states of the former Soviet Union. The 8 chapters provide information on carbohydrate chemistry, nutrition, processing, seed physiology and biochemistry, biotechnology, breeding and agronomy, and strategies for manipulating grain legume carbohydrates.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 241-313) and index.
Introduction -- Carbohydrate Chemistry -- Nutrition -- Processing -- Seed Physiology and Biochemistry -- Biotechnology -- Breeding and Agronomy -- Strategies for Manipulating Grain Legume Carbohydrates.
