Aluminium avoidance by Mucuna pruriens

Physiologia Plantarum, 1992
The hypothesis was tested that the avoidance of acid subsoil by the velvet bean Mucuna pruriens is based on a mechanism acting on the whole root system rather than on individual roots. In a split‐root experiment with circulating nutrient solution the growth of plants with Al‐containing (+/+) or Al‐free (0/0) solution on both sides of the root system ...

Nutritional and anti‐nutritional characteristics of mucuna (Mucuna utilis) bean seeds

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1988
AbstractSome nutritional and anti‐nutritional characteristics of mucuna (Mucuna utilis (Wight) Burck) bean seeds were studied. The mature seeds contained 264 g crude protein, 63 g crude fibre, 41 g crude fat, 37 g ash and 595 g carbohydrates kg−1 DM. The essential amino acid profile compared well with the FAO/WHO scoring pattern except for a deficiency
