REVIOUS experiments have shown that quantitatively the response P of chromosomes of Vicia faba in pachytene to X-rays is approximately the same as that of the same species at the onset of the somatic prophase (MARSHAK 1939a). CREIGHTON (1941) using methods similar to those employed in the Vicia studies found that meiotic chromosomes are only a sixth as sensitive as the mitotic chromosomes in Ch...

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...

in several parts of the world, important yield losses are caused to faba bean due to attack by the black bean aphid aphis fabae scopoli. although resistance could be a good alternative to chemical control, its genetic basis is still largely unknown; and its phenotypic expression is still poorly described, making crucial the permanent evaluation of genetic resources available in different countr...

abstract background antibiotic resistance makes antimicrobial peptides (amps) agents an alternative for treatment of pathogenic diseases. they are isolated from various animals invertebrates, vertebrates and plants. the present study shows the electrophoretic pattern of protein and peptides from vicia faba seed and reports our first attempt to study the antibacterial activity of vicia faba seed...

this study set out to investigate the effect of bio-fertilizers containing nitrogen-fixing bacteria and phosphorus on grain yield and yield components of faba bean. to this end a factorial experiment on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted in behbahan region at south eastern part of khuzestan province of iran. the experimental treatments included ni...

Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is a major food source and fodder legume, popularly known for its high content of seed-protein. Its role is critical in crop rotation, and for fixing nitrogen effectively. Polymorphic simple sequence repeat markers from transcript sequences (cDNA; simple sequence repeat [SSR]) were developed for faba bean (Vicia faba). We found that 1,729 SSR loci from 81,333 individua...

Sensitivity of common onion (Allium cepa L.) and faba bean (Vicia faba L.) to cadmium (Cd) stress was investigated using genotoxicity endpoints. Simultaneously, the antioxidative stress enzymes (guaiacol peroxidise and catalase) and lipid peroxidation [malonaldehyde (MDA) content] were investigated in the plants exposed to Cd in solution. The endpoints screened for genotoxicity included chromos...

Samples of sweet yellow lupins (Lupinus luteus; n = 4), broad leaf lupins (Lupinus albus; n = 12), narrow leaf lupins (Lupinus angustifolius; n = 8), faba beans (Vicia faba; n = 2), field peas (Pisum sativum; n = 4) and narbon beans (Vicia narbonensis; n = 2) were collected over a two-year period. The physical characteristics (thousand seed and hectolitre mass), chemical composition (dry matter...
