Project description:Obtaining large amounts of protein of plant origin is an indispensable prospect from the perspective of environmental changes taking place on earth. However, it is extremely important to be able to diversify the sources of plant proteins, which is affected, among other things, by their local availability, sensitivity to specific climatic conditions of the region, and the qualitative differentiation of amino acids. A lot of data show that higher amounts of protein with improved properties can be obtained from species native to a specific climate zone. In Europe, such species include yellow lupine (Lupinus luteus L.), narrow-leaved lupine (Lupinus angustifolius) and white lupine (Lupinus albus L.). In the case of yellow lupine, the amount may be up to 40% of the dry weight of the seeds. Additionally, these proteins have a favorable amino acid composition. Detailed understanding of the mechanisms and the process of accumulating storage proteins is invaluable for the study of the use of this species to increase the production of plant proteins. In the presented work, yellow lupine seeds cultivar Taper, which were cultivated in the field, were used for the research. Therefore, the aim of the research was to identify genes encoding storage proteins (conglutins) and genes regulating the process of accumulation of storage proteins in the seeds of yellow lupine cultivar Taper in the following days of their development.
