Biofortification of crops with seven mineral elements often lacking in human diets--iron, zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium, selenium and iodine. (2009, background): “Hammond, unpublished observations), spinach (Grusak & Cakmak, 2005), chickpea (Ibrikci et al., 2003) and onion (Alvarez et al.”
Abiotic stresses, constraints and improvement strategies in chickpea (2014, background): “Besides, pulses supplemented diets are also good source of calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, iron and zinc (Ibrikci et al. 2003).”
Mechanism of Zinc absorption in plants: uptake, transport, translocation and accumulation (2016, background): “…rice, maize, chickpea, brassica etc. Extensive genetic diversity occurs in wild germplasm of these crops for several traits like root acquisition of Zn, Zn accumulation in edible tissues (fruits, grain, leaves etc.) (Graham et al. 1999; Banziger and Long 2000; Cakmak 2004; Ibrikci et al. 2003).”
Nutritional quality and health benefits of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.): a review. (2012, background): “Globally, chickpea is mostly consumed as a seed food in several different forms and preparations are determined by ethnic and regional factors((10,11)).”
