CA 2439421

Compositions for enhancing grain yield and protein yield of a pea and/or lentil grown under environmental conditions that inhibit or delay nodulation thereof are provided. The compositions comprise a nodulation gene-inducing compound such as flavones. Moreover, methods for enhancing grain yield and protein yield of a pea and/or lentil grown under environmental conditions that inhibit or delay nodulation thereof are provided. In one embodiment, the methods comprise an addition of an agriculturally effective amount of a nodulation gene-inducing compound such as flavones, in the vicinity of the seed or root of the pea and/or lentil. In particular, a condition which inhibits root nodulation is a root zone temperature below 25 ~C.

Compositions qui favorisent le rendement des grains et des protéines de pois et/ou de lentilles cultivés dans des conditions environnementales qui inhibent ou retardent la nodulation desdites plantes. Lesdites compositions contiennent un composé induisant le gène de la nodulation tel que les flavones. La présente invention concerne également des procédés favorisant le rendement des grains et des protéines de pois et/ou de lentilles cultivés dans des conditions environnementales qui inhibent ou retardent la nodulation desdites plantes. Dans un mode de réalisation, lesdits procédés consistent à ajouter une quantité efficace sur le plan agricole d'un composé induisant le gène de la nodulation tel que les flavones à proximité de la graine ou de la racine des pois et des lentilles. En particulier, un paramètre qui inhibe la nodulation des racines est une température inférieure à 25 ·C dans la zone des racines.
