Advances in Faba Bean Genetics and Genomics [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2016 Vicia faba L, is a globally important grain legume whose main centers of diversity are the Fertile Crescent and Mediterranean basin. Because of its small number (six) of exceptionally large and easily observed chromosomes it became a model species for plant cytogenetics the 70s and 80s.

Mineral excretion of rats fed on diets containing faba beans (Vicia faba L.) or faba bean fractions [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 1992 The effects on faecal mineral excretion of two commercial varieties (local cultivar and Troy cultivar) of raw faba beans (Vicia faba L., minor) meal (VFM) and its fractions have been studied in growing rats. Diets contained local-VFM (dark seed coat) and Troy-VFM (light seed coat) at 474–500 g/kg diet, hull (VFH) from both varieties at 65 g/kg diet ...
