Abstract:
In this experiment data related that available mineral in
sag containing 20 percent fresh leaves at 45 days after sowing of
desi and
kabuli chickpea varieties. The highest available iron content was observed in
sag containing the 20 percent fresh leaves of
kabuli chickpea variety HK-2 (20.98%) and in
desi variety lowest from C-235 (18.66%), calcium content (30.75%) was observed of HK-2 and lowest was observed in variety HC-1 was (30.14%). The highest zinc content in
sag containing 20 percent fresh leaves of
kabuli chickpea variety HK-2 (49.44%), while lowest from variety HK-1 (48.11%). The phenolic compounds ranged from 0.87 to 0.95 mg GAE/100 g and DPPH free radical scavenging activity were (31.9 to 32.85%) present in the
sags incorporating 20 percent fresh chickpea leaves at 45 days after sowing of
desi and
kabuli chickpea varieties
i.e. HC-1, C-235, HK-1 and HK-2. The flavonoid contents in
sag ranged from 7.2 to 8.3 mg/g.
