All applied treatments caused significant increase in crude protein percent in both seeds germ and endosperm. Different effect on the protein fractions percentage was observed, whereas in most of cases albumin and globulin were significantly increased UR - http://nile.enal.sci.eg/EALE/2003/MJAR/2803/6/1781.pdf ER -
