Minerals and chosen heavy metals retention in immature common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seeds depending on the method of preservation.
BACKGROUND Legumes are a good source of protein, and are also abundant in carbohydrates, B-group vita-mins, dietary fibre and mineral compounds. MATERIAL AND METHODS This work evaluates the retention of ash, eleven minerals and two heavy metals in products obtained from two common bean cultivars harvested before reaching full maturity, with a dry matter content of about 40%. Analyses were con...

متن کاملAbortive Seed Development in Common Bean (phaseolus Vulgaris L.)
INTRODUCTION Embryo defective mutants in Phaseolus vulgaris obtained by Ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) induction were studied to determine the structural and molecular basis of seed abortion in this species. In the wild-type, the classical pattern of seed development showed coordinated differentiation of the embryo proper, suspensor, endosperm tissue, and seed coat. On the contrarily, EMS mutant ...
متن کاملPhenotypic Diversity among Croatian Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) Landraces
Phenotypic diversity among Croatian common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) landraces was assessed by analysing 12 qualitative and six quantitative traits in 338 accessions collected from all production areas in Croatia. Out of 12 qualitative morphological traits, seed coat colour was the most polymorphic among accessions having the highest Shannon’s information index and discriminating power. Out ...
متن کاملOn the Origin of the Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Phylogeographic methods provide the tools to accurately access the geographic origin and diversification of crop species. In the present commentary, I urge the common bean community to face those methods and a tree-thinking mentality with regards to the long standing debate of the origin of common bean. Such efforts will ultimately bring back interest into wild bean studies and reinforce the un...
