in order to study on effect of plant density and nitrogen on yield and yield components of visia faba (faba bean), the experimental design was implemented by randomized complete block with three replications at 2010- 2011 in lahijan. the experimental factors were three plant density (25×25 cm, 35×35 cm and 45×45 cm) and four nitrogen fertilizer (0, 20, 40, 60 kg ha-1). in this experiment, featu...

The faba bean (Vicia L. var. major) is a pulse that garnering attention for its chemical composition, which makes it suitable healthy diet. Apulian germplasm rich in local accessions at risk of genetic erosion, need evaluating and promoting. Thirteen Vicia Landraces have been analyzed relation to their productivity biochemical characteristics: protein, total phenol, flavonoid, condensate tannin...

Comparative effects of extrusion cooking and conventional processing methods (cooking and autoclaving) on anti-nutritional factors and subsequent effects on in vitro and in vivo digestibility of Vicia ervilia in broilers were investigated. Treatments had significant effect (P

In this paper there are given the results of a study of the relation of respiration to temperature, in seedlings of Vicia faba, and of the onset of geotropic response. It is shown that with due care and very accurate control of temperature constancy, one can get constant excretion of CO(2) even over fairly long periods. The treatment of the experimental data shows that the Q(10) ratio is of cou...

Interspecific facilitation on phosphorus uptake was observed in faba bean/maize intercropping systems in previous studies. The mechanism behind this, however, remained unknown. Under nitrate supply, the difference in rhizosphere acidification potential was studied by directly measuring pH of the solution and by visualizing and quantifying proton efflux of roots between faba bean (Vicia faba L. ...

Subcellular localization of the starch-degrading enzymes in Vicia faba leaves was achieved by an electrophoretic transfer method through a starch-containing gel (SCC) and enzyme activity measurements. Total amylolytic and phosphorolytic activities were found predominantly in the extrachloroplastic fraction, whereas the debranching enzymes showed homogenous distribution between stromal and extra...

Until now, neither phenotypic nor molecular approaches have been used to characterize the landraces of Palestine faba beans (Vicia faba). We used PCR-based RAPD markers to determine the genetic diversity and relatedness among 26 Palestinian faba bean landraces (traditional farmers' varieties) from 8 localities in the West Bank, Palestine. In tests with 37 primers, 14 generated no polymorphic ba...
