Heat stress adversely affects the growth and yield of faba bean crop. Accumulation of ClpB/Hsp100 class of proteins is a critical parameter in induction of acquired heat stress tolerance in plants. Heat-induced expression of ClpB/Hsp100 genes has been noted in diverse plant species. Using primers complementary to soybean ClpB/Hsp100 gene, we analyzed the transcript expression profile of faba bean ClpB/Hsp100 gene in leaves of seedlings and flowering plants and in pollen grains. ClpB/Hsp100 protein accumulation profile was analyzed in leaves of faba bean seedlings using Arabidopsis thaliana cytoplasmic Hsp101 antibodies. The transcript and protein levels of faba bean ClpB/Hsp100 were significantly induced in response to heat stress.

Soil amendments combined with low cadmium (Cd)-accumulating crops are commonly used for remediating Cd contamination and ensuring food safety. However, the combined effects of soil amendments and the cultivation of faba beans ( L.)-known for their high nutritional quality and low Cd accumulation-in moderately Cd-contaminated soils remain underexplored.

We aimed to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using (cardamom) extracts and assess the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of the cardamom extract, -AgNPs, and the insecticide ATCBRA-commonly used for pest control-on the root system of (broad bean). The chemical composition of the aqueous cardamom extract was identified and quantified using GC-MS, revealing a variety of bioactive compounds also present in cardamom essential oil. These included α-terpinyl acetate (21.

A soluble fraction of faba bean protein was conjugated with tannic acid via the free-radical grafting method using a mixture of ascorbic acid and hydrogen peroxide. Surface plasmon resonance showed a strong bonding between them, while the free amino and thiol group measurements indicated tannic acid's bonding with the amino groups and cysteine residues on the proteins. Structural analysis using intrinsic fluorescence and surface hydrophobicity demonstrated tannic acid's interaction with the aromatic and hydrophobic amino acids of the protein.

Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) offers a rich nutritional profile with high protein content and abundant vitamins and minerals. Processing of faba beans for freezing requires blanching, yielding liluva (legume processing water), possibly containing leached macronutrients, with potential for upcycling.

Hard-to-cook (HTC) beans are characterised by extended cooking times. Although the changes in cell walls limiting hydration in HTC beans are widely investigated, the role of macro-molecules (starch and protein, which constitute >80 % of beans) are almost overlooked. This study investigates the structural changes in starch associated with the HTC quality in faba and adzuki beans stored at contrasting temperature and humidity regimes.
