Free amino acids in different Lotus species
Abstract
Studies on free amino acid pools in various organs of different Lotus species showed mature seeds to be distinguished by a high concentration of canavanine and by the presence of γ-glutamyltyrosine and γ-glutamylphenylalanine. In seeds of L. helleri and L. purshianus homoarginine has been found which is interesting as the occurrence of this amino acid seemed to be restricted to the genus Lathyrus.
