“…Considering that most of these ANFs are destroyed by boiling or autoclaving [34], properly processed winged bean can be safely used as a major plant protein source. Overall, the proximate and antinutritional assessments of winged bean seeds and tubers were similar to those of previous studies of the crop and other similar crops [12,19,21,[44][45][46][47].…”

Many people in sub-Saharan Africa suffer from protein malnutrition; this results in negative health and economic impacts. Winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.) is a tropical underutilized legume with beneficial nutritional characteristics such as high protein content, which may help to alleviate these problems. The proximate composition (fat, moisture content, crude protein, ash, and carbohydrate) and antinutrient (tannin and phytate) level of winged bean seeds and tubers were determined using 50 accessions. In the processed seeds, accession Tpt17 had the highest protein content (40.30%) and Tpt48 the lowest (34.18%). In the unprocessed seeds, Tpt17 also recorded the highest crude protein (31.13%) with Tpt125 having the lowest (28.43%). In the tubers, protein content ranged from 19.07% (Tpt42) to 12.26% (Tpt10). The moisture content in the processed seeds ranged from 8.51% (Tpt42) to 6.72% (Tpt6); in the unprocessed seeds, it was between 8.53% (Tpt53) and 3.76% (Tpt14). In the processed seeds, the values of ash ranged from 4.93% (Tpt126) to 4.45% (Tpt15-4); in the unprocessed seeds, it ranged from 4.98% (Tpt17) to 4.55% (Tpt125). In the processed seeds, the fat content ranged from 18.91% (Tpt51) to 14.09% (Tp43) while in the unprocessed seeds, the values ranged from 19.01% (Tpt15) to 13.87% (Tpt3-B). The crude fiber in the processed samples ranged from 13.82% (Tpt6) to 10.40% (Tpt125) while in the unprocessed seeds, it ranged from 7.29% in Tpt51 to 4.83% in Tpt11. Carbohydrate content in the processed seeds ranged from 26.30% (Tpt3-B) to 20.94% (Tpt125) and 39.76% in Tpt3-B to 34.53% in Tpt18 in the unprocessed seeds. The tannin and phytate contents showed remarkably significant differences. In the tubers harvested, significant variation was observed in the parameters evaluated. Winged bean flour could be formulated into various meals for children and adults to reduce malnutrition in sub-Saharan Africa.

“…Although the pulses production and productivity are not much satisfactory to meet the current requirement of pulses. Moreover, the increase in pulses production could not keep pace with the demand of the increasing population 3,4 . Therefore, the development of high yielding varieties of nutritionally rich pulses can achieve higher production and sustainability 5 .…”

Here we determined the diversity in the 65 genotypes of faba bean of different agroecological origins. Plants were grown in randomized block design in three replications. Further, the genotypes were characterized based on the ten morphological traits. Highly significant differences were determined for all of the studied traits. Whereas, the number of cluster per plant was positively correlated with the pods per plants. Moreover, the trait number of cluster per plant determined the most substantial positive effect on seed yield. Overall, our results indicate a wide range of variability for further selection and improvement of faba bean ideotype.

“…It is anticipated that the usage of CWR breeding is on the rise because of current improvements in molecular technologies that increase the accuracy and efficiency in transferring preferred characteristics from CWR to plants (Ford-Lloyd et al 2013;Redden et al 2015). In this direction, the gene banks are saving the genetic variability, which is present in CWR, and just a small proportion of conserved accessions are recognized (Kaushik et al, 2018). Climate change is on the list of main elements governing the distribution of wild plant species, acting right through physiological constraints on reproduction and growth or indirectly through ecological things like competition for energy (de Carvalho et al 2013).…”

Climate variation and change are an unavoidable phenomenon faced by the natural habitat of this planet. For getting potential yield from vegetable crops under the changing climate conditions, the practical strategies at field level can serve as a guideline for the farmers. Moreover, there are several strategies available for mitigating the harmful effects of climate change. In this manuscript, efforts have been made for reviewing the mitigating strategies against the impact of climate change in vegetable crops via conventional approaches. Considering the situation, the information reviewed revealed that significant result of conventional approaches with climate-smart adoptions strategies has a direct bearing on vegetable production for the increasing population in frenziedly changing climate scenario.
