“…M. uniflorum possesses water-soluble vitamins like vitamin B 1 (thiamine), vitamin B 2 (riboflavin), and vitamin B 3 (niacin) (Table 3 and Figure 5W). The concentrations of thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin in M. uniflorum are 0.38, 0.19, and 1.42 mg/100 mg, respectively (Ingle et al, 2021;Ryan, 1981).…”

“…Vitamin B 1 promotes cell growth, the production of new cells, and increases immunity. Vitamin B 2 displays antioxidant activity while vitamin B 3 raises the amount of good cholesterol in the human body ( (Ingle et al, 2021;Ryan, 1981). After the germination of M. uniflorum, the content of vitamins B 2 and B 3 increases while B 1 decreases.…”

“…Horsegram flour contains oligosaccharides (26.8 mg/g), polyphenols (14.3±0.4 mg GA/g), phytic acid (10.2±0.4 mg/g), and trypsin inhibitor activity (9246±18 TIU/g) (Bhartiya et al, 2015;Sreerama et al, 2010). The trypsin-inhibiting activity shown by horsegram makes it a functional food (Blanca et al, 2009;Ingle et al, 2021). Phytic acid found in M. uniflorum shows antioxidant and anticarcinogenic activities (Graf & Eaton, 1990;Ingle et al, 2021) (Table 3, Figure 4 M).…”

Horsegram is rich in antinutritional compounds such as enzyme inhibitors, oligosaccharides, tannins, haemagglutinin activities, polyphenols and phytic acid, whose harmful activities can be decreased to produce beneficial effects by processing like de-husking, germination, cooking, and roasting (Bhartiya et al, 2015;Kadam & Salunkhe, 1985;Sharma, 2011).…”

Underutilized legumes are a significant group of crops that have particular importance in subsistence farming and the nutritional security of resource-poor communities in developing countries. Horsegram [Macrotyloma uniflorum (Lam.) Verdc.], a lesser-known neglected legume, is one such crop that is mainly cultivated in Asian and African countries as a dual-purpose crop. This climate-resilient legume is well-known for its drought hardiness and favorable agronomic features that make it suitable for cultivating dry lands under poor soil fertility conditions. It has a nutritional value comparable to other commonly consumed pulses and serves as a cheap source of nutrition for unprivileged rural communities residing in inaccessible areas. In addition, horsegram has excellent therapeutic properties and is traditionally used to cure various conditions such as kidney stones, asthma, bronchitis, leukoderma, urinary discharges, heart diseases, and piles. Furthermore, it possesses anti-diabetic and anti-ulcer activity and can help in the dietary management of obesity due to the presence of beneficial bioactive compounds. This review summarizes the nutritional composition, antinutritional factors, medicinal properties, and the potential for horsegram to be exploited as functional/medicinal food for health benefits.

“…Chemotype-based PCA formed three distinct clusters, with cluster 3 accessions containing the nutritionally best metabolites . Horse gram seed is a good source of bioactive and nutritive compounds compared to other pulses and has a high level of antioxidant and radical scavenging activities with immense health benefits (Ingle et al, 2021).…”

Underutilized pulses and their wild relatives are typically stress tolerant and their seeds are packed with protein, fibers, minerals, vitamins, and phytochemicals. The consumption of such nutritionally dense legumes together with cereal-based food may promote global food and nutritional security. However, such species are deficient in a few or several desirable domestication traits thereby reducing their agronomic value, requiring further genetic enhancement for developing productive, nutritionally dense, and climate resilient cultivars. This review article considers 13 underutilized pulses and focuses on their germplasm holdings, diversity, crop-wild-crop gene flow, genome sequencing, syntenic relationships, the potential for breeding and transgenic manipulation, and the genetics of agronomic and stress tolerance traits. Recent progress has shown the potential for crop improvement and food security, for example, the genetic basis of stem determinacy and fragrance in moth bean and rice bean, multiple abiotic stress tolerant traits in horse gram and tepary bean, bruchid resistance in lima bean, low neurotoxin in grass pea, and photoperiod induced flowering and anthocyanin accumulation in adzuki bean have been investigated. Advances in introgression breeding to develop elite genetic stocks of grass pea with low β-ODAP (neurotoxin compound), resistance to Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus in black gram using rice bean, and abiotic stress adaptation in common bean, using genes from tepary bean have been carried out. This highlights their potential in wider breeding programs to introduce such traits in locally adapted cultivars. The potential of de-domestication or feralization in the evolution of new variants in these crops are also highlighted.
