“…The results obtained for Caparrona beans are included in these limits and ranged from 22.1 to 22.7 g.100 g −1 . Similar values are reported by Rezende et al (2017) in Brazilian beans (19 to 23 g.100 g −1 ) or by Santalla et al (1995) in a wide range of samples from Northwestern Spain (22 to 27 g.100 g −1 ).…”

“…The common bean is a valuable legume for human consumption worldwide, being an important source of high-quality proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, phytonutrients, and antioxidants (Cardador-Martínez et al, 2002; Reynoso-Camacho et al, 2006). The common bean was introduced into Europe in the early decades of the 16th century from two domestic centers, the Mesoamerican and the Andean (Lioi and Piergiovanni, 2015).…”

Recovery of a Common Bean Landrace (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) for Commercial Purposes

2018

The “Caparrona” bean is a landrace that was grown largely in Monzón, and for that reason, it is also known by the name of “Caparrona de Monzón.” Historical references mention that in the thirties of the last century, Caparrona beans reached a production higher than 200,000 kg. Nevertheless, the increasing modernization of agriculture at the end of the 20th century enhanced its replacement by newer varieties. As a result, only a few local growers continued producing Caparrona beans mainly for family use. However, in recent years, the high demand for local products, grown with environmentally friendly farming techniques, has reawakened interest in this local bean. In order to recover the Caparrona bean crop, a study was conducted with the aim of assessing this landrace, along with all the processes, from collecting seeds to securing the in situ and ex situ conservation. Six bean samples were initially collected from local farmers and the traditional knowledge was also recorded. After the first seed-borne virus test, two samples were rejected because of the positive results for Bean Common Mosaic Virus (BCMV). The four remaining samples were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications at two locations. All through the growth phase of the plants, samples were taken for a virus test. Two samples tested positive for BCMV and were discarded. Between the two healthy seed samples, regarding morphology, chemical composition, and agronomic data, no significant statistical differences were found. Therefore, both samples were selected for commercial production. The seeds obtained from the assays were transferred to a recently created producers’ association, which registered a private label to commercialize the Caparrona beans as a gourmet product. Seeds are also available from the Spanish BGHZ-CITA public genebank.

“…Common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) is one of the most consumed foods in many countries, containing a relatively high amount of proteins (Los et al, 2018;Rezende et al, 2018). Cowpea beans (Vigna unguiculata) is widely consumed in the North and Northeast of Brazil, as well as some African countries like Nigeria and Burkina Faso, featuring the typical cuisine of these regions (Freire-Filho et al, 2012).…”

Scanning Electron Microscopy and Crystallinity of starches granules from cowpea, black and carioca beans in raw and cooked forms

et al. 2019

Beans are a vital food for the population around the world because it contains a relatively high amount of protein, vitamins, fiber, and minerals, being an important vegetable source of iron, particularly when combined with ascorbic acid and cysteine. The starch content in the seed is between 45 and 60%. This paper evaluated the granular structure of starches from common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) in raw and cooked forms by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and their crystallinity by X-ray diffraction (DR-X). By SEM, was observed the occurrence of gelatinization phenomenon in cowpea and carioca beans, and the resistance to this event in black beans. By DR-X, the diffraction angles found in this work are more consistent with the classification of the standard polyphorm A. The Relative Crystallinity (RC) of black bean cowpea and carioca beans, observed by X-ray diffraction, varied significantly.

“…Although they are not source of high protein quality, these foods contribute significantly to the overall protein intake of the population, they represent the protein sources of lower cost and therefore higher. The combination of different food sources can improve the balance of essential aminoacids and, consequently, protein quality (Cintra et al, 2007;Rezende et al, 2017).…”

“…The protein quality of food can be influenced by phytochemicals in foods such as beans, including phytate, tannins and phenolic compounds, which can bind the minerals, proteins and starches, forming insoluble complexes which impair the absorption of these nutrients (Ramírez-Cárdenasi et al, 2008;Rezende et al, 2017). Dn the other hand, some compounds present in the beans, such as dietary fiber, tannins, phytates and amylase inhibitors have been inversely correlated to the digestion of carbohydrates, glycemic response and the intestinal function (Dias et al, 2018;Hutchins et al, 2012;Pacifici et al, 2017).…”

Staple food crops from Brazilian Biofortification Program have high protein quality and hypoglycemic action in Wistar rats

et al. 2020

Biofortified staple food crops have become an effective tool by which to address micronutrient deficiencies in many at-risk populations. The effect of these food crops on the micronutrient status has been evaluated, however there is no studies investigating their protein quality, neither by themselves or in a food combination. Thus, this study investigated the effect of combinations of beans and rice, target for biofortification, with high carotenoids content crops (sweet potato and pumpkin) on protein quality, intestinal function and glycemia. Eight groups were evaluated (n=6): 1) rice + Caupi bean (RCB); 2) rice + Pontal bean (RPB); 3) rice + Caupi bean + pumpkin (RCBP); 4) rice + Pontal bean + pumpkin (RPBP); 5) rice + Caupi bean + sweet potato (RCBS); 6) rice + Pontal bean + sweet potato (RPBS); 7) casein (positive control); and 8) nitrogen free (negative control). Tested groups showed high protein quality, and groups containing Caupi bean showed higher true digestibility. Groups containing Pontal bean had a greater reduction of blood glucose compared to casein. Tested groups showed higher fecal excretion of lipids. Combination of food target for biofortification showed high protein quality, and the combinations containing Pontal beans showed hypoglycemic effect.Practical Application: The Biofortification program not only provide an additional amount of micronutrient but also contribute to the protein intake of the risk population and potentially improve the glycemic status and intestinal function. Thus, the utilization of these foods may have a positive impact on the nutritional status and health of population at risk for micronutrient deficiency. Dias et al.
