Combining with seed coating method, rhodamine B (RB), a kind of fluorescent compounds had been used in seed labeling as an anti-counterfeiting technology. Effects of broad bean seed coating with RB on physiological parameters and fluorescence performance in broad bean seedlings were performed. The prolonged fluorescence in vascular bundles of seedlings treated with RB could be used as a marker of seed anti-counterfeiting. The experiment showed that RB had no negative effect on seed germination, seedling growth, seedling protective enzyme activities, and the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) and chlorophyll, after coating seeds with ratio 1 kg RB to 10–30 kg seeds. In addition, the RB adsorption by soil was accorded with the isothermal adsorption equations of Langmuir, which exhibited the linear correlation as 0.9959, the maximum adsorption as 1.716 mg/g, and the adsorption equilibrium constant as 0.042 L/mg. The soil adsorption of RB could be effectively degraded by UV/Fenton. Present research suggested that coating broad bean seeds with appropriate concentration RB were safe to seed germination and this technology was suitable for anti-counterfeiting application.

Background Faba bean ( Vicia faba L) is one of the most important legumes in the world. However, there is relatively little genomic information available for this species owing to its large genome. The lack of data impedes the discovery of molecular markers and subsequent genetic research in faba bean. The objective of this study was to analyze the faba bean transcriptome, and to develop simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers to determine the genetic diversity of 226 faba bean varieties derived from different regions in China. Methods Faba bean varieties with different phenotype were used in transcriptome analysis. The functions of the unigenes were analyzed using various database. SSR markers were developed and the polymorphic markers were selected to conduct genetic diversity analysis. Results A total of 92.43 Gb of sequencing data was obtained in this study, and 133,487 unigene sequences with a total length of 178,152,541 bp were assembled. A total of 5,200 SSR markers were developed on the basis of RNA-Seq analysis. Then, 200 SSR markers were used to evaluate polymorphisms. In total, 103 (51.5%) SSR markers showed significant and repeatable bands between different faba bean varieties. Clustering analysis revealed that 226 faba bean materials were divided into five groups. Genetic diversity analysis revealed that the relationship between different faba beans in China was related, especially in the same region. These results provided a valuable data resource for annotating genes to different categories and developing SSR markers.

Climate change is affecting agricultural production and other aspects of life but only limited number of studies took interest in characterizing and projecting climate and its impact on crop production at local level. The threat to agricultural sector is more serious in Ethiopia, where climate is influenced by diverse topography and varying landscape features. This study was conducted in Welmera area to model the impacts of climate change on production of two faba bean ( Vicia faba L.) varieties (Tums and Gora). Historical climate and crop yield data were obtained from the National Meteorological Agency of Ethiopia and Holeta Agricultural Research Center, respectively. Future climate data were downscaled by an average ensemble of four GCMs (BSS-CSM1-1, HadGEM2-ES, MIROC-ESM, NorESM1-M) in near- and mid-century (2030s and 2050s) under both RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5. Rainfall by near-century will increase by up to 50% depending on the concentration pathway considered compared to the baseline period (1988–2017). The projected average rainfall total of belg season (FMAM) will increase by 88.17% under RCP 4.5 scenario and 95.38% under RCP 8.5 scenario in near-century. The future projection revealed that the highest mean monthly rainfall and temperature changes will occur in July (147.3 mm/month) and August (0.24 °C/month) under RCP8.5. However, in August and September mean monthly rainfall will decrease dramatically by 50.85 % and 31.05% from 2020 to 2079 under RCP 8.5 and RCP 4.5, respectively. The yield of Tumsa variety will decrease by up to 24.19% under RCP8.5 in mid-century. Gora variety will see an increase of yield by 18.24% under RCP 4.5 in mid-century and 28.03% under RCP 8.5 in near-century. Overall, the area will experience an increase and a decrease in faba bean yield for both varieties in the upcoming decades in the study area. Performance evaluation of the models showed that they were able to predict future yield faba bean varieties in the area with acceptable accuracy. Inconsistency of future climate variables and impact on fababean production underscores the need to develop location-specific adaptation strategies. Further studies that consider wider area could be necessary to better understand the impact of future climate on faba bean production in the study area and similar agroecologies in the country.

Fava bean is currently utilized as a specialized feed ingredient to enhance the muscle texture of fish. When incorporated at appropriate levels, fava beans can improve fish muscle crispy texture. However, high dietary levels of fava beans may lead to liver damage in fish, although the specific mechanisms behind this effect remain unclear. In this study, 600 genetic improvement of farmed tilapia (GIFT; Oreochromis niloticus ) of uniform size (initial body weight 552.3 ± 10.12 g) and healthy appearance were randomly divided into four groups, each with three replicates of 50 fishes. The fish diets contained different levels of fava beans (0, 50%, 60%, and 70%), designated as D0, D50, D60, and D70, respectively, over a ten-week feeding experiment. A comprehensive analysis of the impact of fava beans on muscle texture and liver health in GIFT was performed. The results showed that 50%, 60%, and 70% dietary fava beans had no significant effect on the growth performance of GIFT ( P > 0.05), but 70% dietary fava beans increased feed conversion ratio (FCR) ( P = 0.022). Consumption of fava beans at levels of 50%, 60%, and 70% in the diet altered GIFT muscle texture ( P < 0.05), and adversely effected serum biochemistry and liver health ( P < 0.05). Non-targeted metabolome analysis of the liver revealed that dietary fava beans may cause irreversible damage to liver cells by disrupting the DNA methylation process ( P < 0.05). This finding enhances the understanding of the mechanisms behind the negative impact of fava bean consumption on liver function. It is crucial to investigate potential strategies to mitigate these adverse effects while maintaining the desired muscle quality when fava beans are used in aquatic feed.

In order to further explain the fillet texture improvement of Yellow River carp ( Cyprinus carpio ) fed with faba bean ( Vicia faba L.), a three-month rearing trial was conducted to investigate fatty acid composition, antioxidant capacity, myofiber development, collagen deposition and transcriptome in white muscle of two farmed carp groups (One was fed only faba bean, the other was fed commercial diet). As a strong oxidant, faba bean changed fatty acids composition in white muscle, especially DHA and EPA, up-regulated the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and down-regulated major antioxidant enzyme activities in the hepatopancreas and white muscle. Through the analysis of transcriptome and subsequent verification analysis, we speculated that the increase of ROS led to the decrease of myofiber diameter and collagen metabolism. This study provides a theoretical basis for further understanding the regulation of faba bean on fillet texture characteristic of Yellow River carp.

Faba bean has gained attention as a cost-effective protein source with the potential to enhance product quality (texture properties, collagen content, etc.) in fish. However, its anti-nutrition factor, high feed conversion ratio, poor growth performance, etc. limit the widely application as a dietary source, especially in carnivorous fish. The water or alcohol extract of faba bean might resolve the problem. In this study, the juvenile Nibea coibor , known for their high-protein, large-sized, and high-grade swim bladder, were fed with seven isoproteic and isolipid experimental diets with the additive of faba bean water extract (1.25%, 2.5%, and 5%) or faba bean alcohol extract (0.9%, 1.8%, and 3.6%), with a control group without faba bean extract. After the 10-week feeding trail, the growth, antioxidant capacity, textural properties, and collagen deposition of the swim bladder were analyzed. Results showed that the 1.25% faba bean water extract group could significantly promote growth, textural quality of the swim bladder, and have beneficial effects on antioxidant response of fish. Conversely, dietary supplementation of faba bean alcohol extract resulted in reduced growth performance in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, fish fed diet with 1.25% faba bean water extract exhibited increased collagen content and upregulated collagen-related gene expression in the swim bladder, which was consistent with the Masson stain analysis for collagen fiber. Our results suggested that the anti-nutrient factor and bioactive component of faba bean may mainly be enriched in alcohol extract and water extract of faba bean, respectively. Besides, the appropriate addition of water extract of faba bean may improve the texture quality of the swim bladder by promoting collagen deposition. This study would provide a theoretical basis for the formulated diets with faba bean extract to promote product quality of marine fish.
