Abstract:
... The increased costumers’ request of safe and high-quality food products makes food traceability a priority for frauds identification and quality certification. Elemental profiling is one of the strategies used for food traceability, and TXRF spectroscopy is widely used in food analysis even if its potentialities have not been fully investigated. In this work, a new method for food traceability usi ...
... Microplastic pollution in terrestrial ecosystems is a growing concern due to its potential influences on soil properties and crop growth. Little is known about the effects of microplastics on the microbiome in the rhizosphere. Here, we studied the effects of two types of microplastics (MPs), low density polyethylene (LDPE-MPs) and biodegradable microplastic (Bio-MPs) of poly-butylene-adipate-co-te ...

Abstract:
... Bacillus subtilis can mitigate crop growth and yield under heat stress. We studied whether these benefits can be reproduced in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). We hypothesized that B. subtilis strains AP-3 and AP-12 could improve bean crop performance under heat stress. Heat stress consisted of cultivation at 35 °C compared to pots at 25 °C in controlled environment chambers. Treatments we ...

Abstract:
... Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is an important source of food and income. However, its on-farm diversity and conservation by smallholder farmers is not known in the east Hararghe Zone of eastern Ethiopia. Thus, field survey was conducted from November 2018 to February 2019 to assess the on-farm diversity, cropping system and the role of gender in production and management of common bean varie ...

Abstract:
... Breeding of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) shows restrictions in the genetic advance because of the effect of the environment. Therefore, the behavior of the yield components of genotypes varies according to the crop’s environment. The genotype x environment interaction can cause genotypes with high yields in one location not to behave in the same way in other localities, which limits the re ...

Abstract:
... Organic farming is an environment-friendly agricultural system able to eliminate negative impacts of chemicals on agricultural lands and environment. Experiments were conducted in 2020 and 2021 growing seasons to investigate the effects of organic-certificated liquid fertilizers obtained from seaweed extracts on morphological and technological traits and mineral composition of beans(Phaseolus vulg ...

Abstract:
... Plants are able to acclimate to environmental constraints through functional modifications that may also occur in tissues that are not directly exposed to stress. This process is termed “systemic acquired acclimation.” The present study aims to evaluate the involvement of PolyADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) protein in the acclimation process to high light (HL) stress in Phaseolus vulgaris plants. Fo ...

Abstract:
... Kashmir Himalayas abounds in bean genetic resources with adaptive capacity and better quality. In the present study 110 common bean germplasm accessions were evaluated between 2019-2021 for yield traits as well as for BCMV resistance. BCMV is the most common and most destructive disease of beans and can cause a yield loss as high as 100%. Substantial variability was recorded in the material as dep ...

Abstract:
... Regression models to predict leaf area and leaf weight in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) were fitted using the three leaflets of the leaves. A total of 1504 leaves from 40 genotypes were collected, covering a large range of leaf sizes. Width, length, area, and weight were measured for each leaflet. The total leaf area and weight was obtained by the sum of left, central, and right leaflets. The d ...

Abstract:
... This study aims to explore diversity in rheological properties, structure and digestibility of starches isolated from 16 common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) varieties from Europe and Asia. All common bean starches showed CA-type (closer to A-type) crystallinities. Relative crystallinity varied from 27.8% to 32.9% with a similar coefficient of variation (CV: 5.0%–6.0%) to 1045/1014 cm⁻¹ ratio (vari ...

Abstract:
... Symbiotic diazotrophic bacteria collectively called “rhizobia” can associate with legumes and form specialized structures in the roots, called nodules, where the biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) process takes place.

Abstract:
... Like other plant compartments, the seed harbors a microbiome. The members of the seed microbiome are the first to colonize a germinating seedling, and they may initiate the trajectory of microbiome assembly for the next plant generation. Therefore, the members of the seed microbiome are important for the dynamics of plant microbiome assembly and the vertical transmission of potentially beneficial ...

Abstract:
... This study investigated the use of pulsed electric fields/PEF (electric field strengths 1–2 kV/cm, specific energy 9–127 kJ/kg) to facilitate calcium uptake into black beans in preserving their hardness from thermal degradation during subsequent cooking (1 h, 70–90 °C). Increasing specific energy reduced CaCl₂ concentration in PEF processing media to 100 ppm to improve the hardness of cooked black ...
