[Mapeo Asociativo del contenido de acido fitico y alfa-galactosidos, dos factores antinutricionales claves en lupino amarillo (Lupinus luteus)]

Today, humanity faces an increasing demand for agricultural food products as a result of continuous human demographic pressure, reduction of cultivated land and current energetic policies favoring the cultivation of biomass crops to produce bio-fueling products. In addition, human food demand is starting to require better quality products which must satisfy essential nutritional requirements, new prebiotic functions, and reduction of antinutritional factors. Phytic acid and alpha-galactosides are two of the most well known antinutricional factors found in legume grain crops and the capacity to generate industry-specialized crop varieties low in these antinutritionals will depend on the ability to manage the metabolic pathways involved in the production of them. Although several enzymes associated to phytic acid and alphagalactosides plant content have been reported, several steps of their metabolism remain unknown. Moreover, there is little information on the total amount of genetic variation (and trait plasticity) involved in the production of these plant metabolites. Thus, this study pretends to genetically analyze the natural variation of phytic acid and alpha-galactoside content in a diverse set of L. luteus to facilitate the manipulation of these antinutritionals in a legume breeding program
