Variation of some seed mineral contents in open pollinated faba bean (Vicia faba L.) landraces from Turkey

Abstract: The first step towards the biofortification of edible portions of crop species with improved nutritional value is to understand the genetic diversity available to breeders in germplasm collections. A faba bean germplasm (129 landraces and 4 cultivars) from diverse geographic regions of Turkey was assessed for micro-and macroelement contents of seeds. The results showed high diversity in open-pollinated faba bean germplasm for contents of N ( 27.5-93.3 g kg -1 ), P (1.24-4.89 g kg -1 ), K (4.5-19.3 g kg -1 ), F… Show more

“…Considering previous studies on macroelement concentrations of some medicinal and wild edible plants, it was noted that our findings for some Apiaceae plant species are in harmony with the findings of the earlier researchers. It is well known that a number of factors such as plant species, soil characteristics, and water availability in the soil considerably affect the mineral composition of plants (Şekeroğlu, 2012;Baloch et al, 2014). In the present study, there was also a wide variation in macroelement contents among the studied plant species.…”

“…Among plant genetic resources, wild edible plants have been widely used as food sources by people since ancient times (Baloch et al . ). These wild edible food plants serve as an indispensable constituent of human diet all over the world (Akubugwo et al .…”

“…The genetic variation among genotypes of various legume crops is being vastly eroded as the modern cultivars are replacing the traditional cultivars over large areas across the globe (Duc et al, 2010;Alghamdi et al, 2012). On the other hand, the genetic diversity is threatened for breeding the crops for future generations due to the destruction of wild relatives of the cultivated crop species (Wang et al, 2012;Baloch et al, 2014).…”
