  • Sprout Production in California
    PUBLICATION 8060 Sprout Production in California WAYNE L. SCHRADER, University of California Cooperative Extension Farm Advisor, San Diego County Sprouts have been used for food since before recorded history. Sprouts vary in texture and taste. Some are spicy (e.g., radish and onions), some are used in Asian foods (e.g., mung bean [Phaseolus aureus]), and others are delicate (e.g., alfalfa) and are UNIVERSITY OF used in salads and sandwiches to add texture. Vegetable sprouts grown for food are CALIFORNIA baby plants that are harvested just after germination. Various crop seeds may be Agriculture sprouted. The most common are adzuki, alfalfa, buckwheat, Brassica spp. (broccoli, and Natural Resources etc.), cabbage, clover, cress, garbanzo, green peas, lentils, mung bean, radish, rye, http://anrcatalog.ucdavis.edu sesame, wheat, and triticale. Production practices should provide appropriate ger- mination conditions, moisture, and temperatures that allow for the “harvesting” of the sprouts at their optimal eating quality. Production practices should also allow for efficient cleaning and packaging of sprouts. VARIETIES Mung bean seed are used to produce bean sprouts; some soybeans and adzuki beans are also used to produce bean sprouts. The preferred varieties are those that have smaller-sized seed. With small seed, the cotyledons and seed coats are less objec- tionable or are more easily removed from the finished product. The smallest-seeded varieties of mung bean are Oklahoma 12 and Oriental; larger-seeded types are Jumbo and Berken. Any small-seeded adzuki may be used for sprouts; a variety called Chinese Red Adzuki is sometimes substituted for adzuki bean even though it is not a true adzuki bean.

She is a role model to all, especially her graduate students, and her positive attitude brings life to any arduous task. I would undoubtedly not be where I am today if it were not for Dr. Slavin providing me with the opportunity to work alongside her. I would also like to thank my other advisory committee members: Dr. Dave Smith and Dr. Renee Korczak. Thank you, Dr. Dave Smith, for providing me with fundamental information that forms the basis of food science and always a good laugh in the classroom. Thank you, Dr. Korczak, for allowing me to work beside you as your teacher’s assistant, barreling through endless student emails together. I thank my lab mates, Alexis, Hannah, Jennifer, Julie, Justin, and Rylee, for providing guidance and advice and for always listening. I would not have been able to complete this journey without your constant support. To my parents, David and Jeane, I would like to thank you for your encouragement and unending support not only throughout this process but, throughout my entire life. To my sister, Stacie, thank you for listening to me talk, “about my beans,” endlessly.

In the years 2011 - 2012, thirteen cultivars and breeding lines of Chinese origin a d- zuki bean ( Phaseolus angularis W.H.

In the field experiment, the evaluation included seedlings emergence, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod and plant healt h status. In the laboratory research, the assessments included seed germination as well as seed dry matter and total protein contents. In Western Poland climatic conditions, it was possible to produce seeds of adzuki bean. H owever, in cold and wet years, t hey did not set seeds. The tested materials differed in plant emergence, earliness, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod and plant health status. T he produced seeds had germination capacity from 0 to 54 % and no sym p- toms of bean weevil ( Acantho scelides obtectus Say ) damage.

  • Adzuki Beans- Physical and Nutritional Characteristics of Beans and Its Health Benefits
    International Journal of Health Sciences and Research www.ijhsr.org ISSN: 2249-9571 Review Article Adzuki Beans- Physical and Nutritional Characteristics of Beans and Its Health Benefits Srishti Agarwal1, Ekta Singh Chauhan2 1Research Scholar, 2Associate Professor, Department of Food Science and Nutrition, Banasthali Vidyapith, Rajasthan, India Corresponding Author: Ekta Singh Chauhan ABSTRACT Adzuki (Vigna angularis) has been grown and consumed by humans for centuries in various parts of the world like China. However, adzuki’s global use for human consumption has been restrained partly due to limited knowledge about its nutrient composition and the processing challenges faced in making adzuki-based food products. Over the past decade, the recognition that Vigna angularis is gluten-free has raised global interest. Consequently, literature on the nutritional composition, processing quality, and health benefits of adzuki has grown considerably. The existing literature suggests that adzuki is composed of complex carbohydrates with slowly digestible starch. Adzuki has similar protein content to other more common cereals like wheat, but is relatively richer than other cereals in the essential amino acid lysine. Adzuki is also a good source of essential fatty acids, fiber, minerals (especially calcium and iron), and phytochemicals such as polyphenols and phytates. Existing studies of the nutrition and health benefits of adzuki are limited since they fail to take into account differences in adzuki varieties and growing conditions. Nevertheless, the studies undertaken so far confirm adzuki’s excellent nutrient profile and suggest it has considerable potential globally to be a functional food for health promotion and disease prevention. Key words: China, polyphenols, amino acids, functional, digestible.

  • The Oviposition Preference of Callosobruchus Maculatus and The
    Running head: THE OVIPOSITION PREFERENCE OF C. MACULATUS 1 The Oviposition Preference of Callosobruchus maculatus and Its Hatch Rates on Mung, Pinto, Kidney, and Adzuki Beans Abbigail Traaseth, BIO 106-77 Piedmont Virginia Community College Introduction Many insects display preference for the placement of their eggs. Different leaves, trees, feces, and even beans can have an impact on the development and success of the insect’s offspring. But can the same be said of Callosobruchus maculatus, commonly known as the bean beetle? C. maculatus is a pest and a nuisance in much of West Africa, where it commonly develops on cowpeas found in storage containers (Sankara, et al., 2009). Hudaib et al. (2010) determined that storage containers are most likely targeted by the beetles due to the dry beans found inside, as opposed to fresh beans in the wilderness; it is thought that this is due to the structural stability of dry beans, and lack of predators indoors. This makes the bean beetle a particular threat to agricultural practices and communities that rely on beans and seeds for food. Most worrisome, the bean beetle is known to thrive on many different varieties of bean; introducing new hosts to the beetle has failed to decrease rates of copulation among similar seed beetles (Stojković et al., 2014). This information supports the notion that the bean beetle is a potential threat worldwide, but as of yet, it has not infested American storage containers. That said, it’s in our best interest to determine the bean and oviposition preferences for C. maculatus to deter the potential future problem.

Printed in Brazil - ©2017 Sociedade Brasileira de Química Article 0103 - 5053 $6.00+0.00 Effects of Iron Enrichment of Adzuki Bean (Vigna angularis) Sprouts on Elemental Translocation, Concentrations of Proteins, Distribution of Fe-Metalloproteins, and Fe Bioaccessibility Aline P. de Oliveira and Juliana Naozuka* Universidade Federal de São Paulo, Rua Prof. Artur Riedel, 275, 09972-270 Diadema-SP, Brazil Iron (Fe) is an essential element for human nutrition, and its deficiency or low hemoglobin levels are a global health issue. Strategies aimed at increasing the amounts of essential elementals in agricultural products, as sprouts of adzuki bean (Vigna angularis), can be a way to minimize deficiencies, mainly in the populations of developing countries. Therefore, in this work was evaluated: production of Fe-enriched adzuki bean sprouts; Fe accumulation and translocation in plants in different culture media enriched with different Fe masses (500, 1000, 2000, and 3000 µg); and effects of the enrichment by means of 3000 µg FeIII-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (FeIII-EDTA): on the distribution of Ca, Cu, Fe, K, P, Mg, S, and Zn in different parts of the plant; on protein concentrations (albumins, globulins, prolamins, and glutelins) and their association with Fe in edible parts of the plant (stems); and on Fe bioaccessibility in the edible part of the plant (stems). The enrichment via FeIII-EDTA favored the translocation and increased Fe content of sprouts (75%), besides promoting interactions of Fe with albumins (141%), globulins (180%), and glutelins (93%).
