The tender pod is the primary edible part of the snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), and the level of suture fiber content is one of the key factors affecting its edible quality. To elucidate the key regulatory mechanisms and metabolic basis underlying suture fiber formation in pods, this study em...
The common cutworm (CCW; Spodoptera litura) is one of the major insect pests of soybean in Asia and Oceania. Although quantitative trail loci related to CCW resistance have been introduced into leading soybean cultivars, these do not exhibit sufficient resistance against CCW. Thus, under...
Hyperuricemia (HUA) has emerged as an increasingly prevalent metabolic disorder worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the effects of red kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) anthocyanins (RKBA) on alleviating HUA and screen the lead candidate. RKBA effectively inhibited XOD in vitro. In vivo ...
Background The gut microbiota plays a significant role in modulating the growth and function of host muscle, and microbiota transplantation experiments provide compelling evidence of its capacity to improve muscle quality. Feeding faba beans improves the muscle quality of Yellow River carp. ...
