| Abstract | ||
| Potential therapeutic uses of fenugreek, Trigonella foenum-graecum, are famous in traditional medicine. More recently, it has been revealed that total saponin content in the defatted seed extract is related to the hypocholesterolemic activity of the seeds. Enhancement of growth of fenugreek plant and saponins content in the seeds was the main target of the current investigation. | ||
