Mutant Lines

The present experiment was conducted to induce genetic variation using gamma irradiation and ethyl methanesulphonate mutagenesis and isolate and analyze the desirable mutant lines of Vicia faba L. var. Vikrant and PRT-12 in the M3 generation. The seeds of the mutant lines isolated from 3rd generation plants were analyzed for different parameters including total protein content, protein profiles and mineral content using Lowry method, Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and atomic absorption spectrophotometer, respectively. SDS-PAGE profile of mutants from variety Vikrant showed more polymorphism and expression of proteins than mutants isolated from variety PRT-12. Mutant seeds showed significantly higher protein content (0.18 to 1.29%) and mineral content (0.21 to 2.98 mg.g-1) compared to the controls. The mutants selected from variety Vikrant showed more increase in protein and mineral contents than the mutants selected from PRT-12. The selected mutant lines may serve as a valuable genetic material to breed for the improvement of protein and mineral contents in faba bean and other valuable crop plants.

Vicia Faba L

Small fababeans (Vicia faba L.) were tested at one location for 2 yr at six seed rates (60–260 kg/ha) and two row spacings (15 and 30 cm). Results indicate that narrow spacing outyields wide spacing at all seed rates, the average advantage being 18.9 q/ha and 5.0 q/ha for 1971 and 1972, respectively. Seed yield increased with seed rate; highest yields were obtained at a seed rate of 260 kg/ha and 15 cm spacing. Treatments had no significant effects on 1,000-seed weight hectoliter weight, or protein content. Yield component analysis revealed that the number of pods per plant decreased with increased seed rates, but weight per pod was not affected. It is concluded that seed yield is a direct function of the number of mature pods per unit area.

Faba Beans

There were significant differences among 49 cultivars of faba beans (Vicia faba L.) for percent seed crude fibre, seed coat thickness, 1,000-seed weight and seed protein content; 1,000-seed weight was negatively correlated with seed crude fibre (r = −0.52) and positively correlated with seed coat thickness (r = 0.66). Step-wise multiple regression analysis showed that seed coat thickness could provide a partial prediction of seed crude fibre.

SUMMARYWhen both spring and winter varieties of field beans were entered in the same trial, sown on the same date (in the spring) and harvested on the same date, the seeds of spring varieties had mean crude protein contents which were higher than those of winter varieties by 3·1 ± 0·9% in the first trial, 2·8 ± 0·7% in the second trial, and 2·9 ± 0·3% in the third trial.
