This investigation was carried out to study the effect of water stress i.e. irrigation at 40 %, 60 % and 80% depletion from available soil moisture. The highest values at essential amino acids percentage (Thrionine, Lucine, isolucine, Valine, Phenylalanine, Histidine and Lycine) in Lupin and Lintel increased at 40% depletion, while it was increased in chickpea and faba bean at 60% and 80% depletion respectively UR - http://nile.enal.sci.eg/EALE/2002/ZJAR/2902/3/947.pdf ER -
