The faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is a potential source of proteins for poultry, mainly for laying hens whose protein requirements are lower than those of other birds such as growing broilers and turkeys. However, this feedstuff contains anti-nutritional factors, that is, vicine (V) and convicine (C) that are already known to reduce laying hen performance. The aim of the experiment reported here wa...

Faba bean is the third most important legume species after peas and beans in world. The study on influence of biostimulator Slavol-S morphological production characteristics faba (Vicia var. minor) were carried out growing seasons two successive years, agro-ecological conditions Banja Luka. During field research, following parameters analyzed: plant height (cm), number pods per plant, pod lengt...

In this study, a revised target model for quantifying the in vitro radiosensitivity of mung bean sprout elongation to 6-MV X-rays was developed. The revised target model, which incorporated the Poisson prediction for a low probability of success, provided theoretical estimates that were highly consistent with the actual data measured in this study. The revised target model correlated different ...

Ridge tillage is an effective agronomic practice and a miniature precision agriculture; however, its effects on the growth of faba beans (Vicia L.) are poorly understood. This study aimed to determine effect ridge straw mulching root growth, nutrient accumulation yield beans. Field experiments were conducted during 2016 2017 cropping seasons comprised four treatments: without any (RT), flat mul...

Five healthy volunteers and six patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) ate 250 g cooked broad beans after 12 hours without treatment. During the next four hours a substantial clinical improvement was noted, three patients showed severe dyskinesias, and plasma levodopa concentrations rose.

Grain legumes are valuable sources of protein and contribute to the diversification sustainability agricultural systems. Shifting sowing date from spring autumn is a strategy address low yields grain under conditions climate change. A two-year field experiment was conducted Pannonian in eastern Austria assess nitrogen yield biological N2 fixation winter peas faba beans compared their forms. The...
