Introduction and literature review 1.1 Background and objectives Many thousand plant species have been used for several purposes by human. About 100 have been developed into important crops (Hill et al., 1998) and only few of these crops have been intensively and widely used in the world´s agriculture. This has lead to the shrinking or erosion of agricultural biodiversity and at the same time to an increasing level of vulnerability of food suply. These concerns have generated growing interest in the research on “underutilized“ crops. Root and tubers are second in importance for human nutrition after cereals. Conventional root crops such as cassava, sweet potatoes, yam and taro are seriously deficient in protein and when used as the main source of nourishment, the local population, especially weaning children, often suffers from protein deficiences. Already in 1979 the FAO (1979) pointed out that due to

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

Ex DC.) is an underutilized leguminous crop which has been used as a food source across central America and Asia. It is adapted to a range of environments and is closely related to major leguminous food crops, offering the potential to understand the genetic basis of environmental adaptation, and it may be used as a source of novel genes and alleles for the improvement of other legumes. Here, we assembled a draft genome of P. erosus of 460 Mbp in size containing 37,886 gene models. We used this assembly to compare three cultivars each of P. erosus and the closely related P. tuberosus and identified 10,187,899 candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The SNP distribution reflects the geographic origin and morphology of the individuals.

EAGLETON Permanent address: 23 Mulhall Street, Wagstaffe, NSW 2257, Australia, email: [email protected] Manuscript received: 15 November 2020. Revision accepted: 29 November 2020. Abstract. Eagleton GE. 2020. Review: Winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus) cropping systems. Biodiversitas 21: 5927-5946. Winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.) is a rambling, nitrogen-rich, leguminous crop of the Old-World tropics. This review of winged bean (WB) within cropping systems of Southeast Asia and Melanesia revisited four traditional roles that the crop has played: as a minor courtyard vegetable of villages and suburbs throughout the region; as a popular tuber crop in the irrigated plains of Tada-U township in Central Myanmar; as a companion crop in the mixed garden fields of Wamena in Indonesian New Guinea; and as a niche tuber crop in rotation with sweet potato near Goroka in Papua New Guinea (PNG). Drawing upon such traditions, researchers since the 1970s have identified potential new roles for winged bean. In Malaysia, vegetable pod yields up to 35 t ha-1 over a 25-week growing period have been obtained from solidly trellised, branching cultivars. Ratooning the crop through a further two cycles covers the cost of the trellising. Tubers from un-trellised field crops in Myanmar, and of staked, pruned garden crops in highland PNG have been estimated to produce crude protein yields of at least 300 kg ha-1 and 600 kg ha-1, respectively.

The aim of this 4 work was to recover ahipa proteins by isoelectric point (pI) precipitation to enrich ahipa 5 and cassava starches. Both enriched starches had protein contents of ~2%, and their ATR- 6 FTIR spectra revealed bands characteristic of ahipa proteins. Enriched starches also 7 contained phenolics in concentrations of 18-20 µg GAE/g.

Received: 26 October 2020; Accepted: 6 December 2020; Published: 8 December 2020 Abstract: Natural products, particularly those extracted from plants, have been used as therapy for different diseases for thousands of years. The first written records on the plants used in natural medicine, referred to as “medicinal plants”, go back to about 2600 BC. A thorough and complete understanding of medicinal plants encompasses a multiplex of overlapping and integrated sciences such as botany, pharmacognosy, chemistry, enzymology and genetics. Psophocarpus tetragonolobus, a member of Fabaceae family also called winged bean, is a perennial herbaceous plant characterized by its tuberous roots and its winged pod twinning and a perennial legume rich in proteins, oils, vitamins and carbohydrates. Besides nutrients, winged bean also contains bioactive compounds that have therapeutic activities like anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, antibacterial, antifungal, antiproliferative and cytotoxic activity, a few of which already been reported.

Diajukan: 03 November 2009; Diterima: 29 Mei 2010 ABSTRAK Kecipir (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus L.) merupakan tanaman tropis yang memiliki banyak fungsi, yakni sebagai bahan pangan bernutrisi prima dan sebagai tanaman penutup tanah. Seluruh bagian tanaman dapat dikonsumsi dan kaya akan protein. Tanaman kecipir juga berguna sebagai penyubur tanah, bahan pakan ternak, obat tradisional, dan pengendali erosi di lahan kering. Pusat asal-usul kecipir adalah Papua Nugini, Mauritius, Madagaskar, dan India, sedangkan pusat keanekaragaman terbesar terdapat di Papua Nugini dan Indonesia. Makalah ini mengulas keragaman genetik kecipir di Indonesia, multifungsi kecipir, dan prospek pengembangannya. Ragam kecipir di Indonesia cukup banyak, namun karakterisasi plasma nutfah kecipir di Indonesia belum dilakukan. Ciri pemertela kecipir telah dibuat oleh IBPGR, dan panduan pemertela tersebut dapat diterapkan untuk karakterisasi plasma nutfah kecipir di Indonesia.
