Despite previous reviews that have addressed the chemical compounds and biosynthetic pathways of off-aroma generation, to date, there is a lack of a comprehensive review that critically evaluates and compares the different isolation methods, quantification techniques and gas chromatography-based analytical instrumentation employed for characterising volatile off-aroma compounds in legumes and legume-based food products. Considering this paucity of knowledge, this review critically analyses the strengths and weaknesses of VOC extraction techniques and quantification methods used in gas chromatography-based techniques to determine off-aroma compounds. Special emphasis is also placed on the selection criteria for optimal column chemistries and detector configurations that influence analytical performance, with the aim of guiding method development for accurate and reliable off-aroma profiling in common legumes used in everyday life. This is supported by a concise summary of different off-aroma characterisation studies conducted over the last 6 years on legumes. The overarching aim is to offer researchers a comparative perspective to support method selection, identify knowledge gaps and guide future research directions, providing recommendations where possible. Accurate identification of these off-aroma compounds is crucial in order to develop mitigation strategies to remove or limit their impact on flavour, enhancing product acceptability.</p>","PeriodicalId":17929,"journal":{"name":"Legume Science","volume":"8 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/leg3.70099","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147686860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their nutritional potential is often limited by anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) including phytates, tannins, lectins and oligosaccharides, which can impair nutrient bioavailability and digestibility. This review provides a comparative assessment of ANF profiles in lablab (<i>Lablab purpureus</i>), common bean (<i>Phaseolus vulgaris</i>) and cowpea (<i>Vigna unguiculata</i>) and examines strategies for mitigating these compounds through traditional methods such as soaking, boiling, germination and fermentation, as well as modern approaches including controlled microbial fermentation, extrusion cooking and enzymatic or chemical treatments. Evidence indicates that processing conditions such as soaking duration, fermentation type and temperature significantly influence ANF reduction, nutrient retention and sensory attributes across these legumes. For instance, sprouting in cowpeas preserves heat-sensitive vitamins, while controlled fermentation in lablab improves protein digestibility and reduces oligosaccharides. Overall, integrating traditional and modern processing techniques offers effective strategies to enhance bioavailability, improve sensory quality and expand the dietary and industrial utilization of these legumes, supporting sustainable, nutrient-rich, plant-based diets globally.</p>","PeriodicalId":17929,"journal":{"name":"Legume Science","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/leg3.70097","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147567116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) method enables us to nondestructively study the detailed anatomical and morphological changes of stink bug damaged plant tissues. To examine the effect of southern green stink bug's (<i>Nezara viridula</i> L., 1758) feeding on soybean, 0, 3, and 5 bugs were placed on the pods and subsequently, micro-CT images were taken at various time points after infestation to determine the changes in inner tissue structures. The measured feeding frequency of <i>N. viridula</i> adults was 14.20 feedings in the first 24 h. Imaging clearly identified the damage caused by <i>N. viridula</i>, as areas of reduced density. Despite the lack of gross volume difference (size of the pods) between the groups, internal tissue alterations were prevalent and captured by the increase of “void” volume (volume of areas < 4000 a.u. intensity) as a function of infestation duration and severity. Moreover, histogram analysis of pod intensities identified significant, damage-related alterations as early as 24 h post infestation. We can assume that the seed damage caused by enzymes becomes much more pronounced even days after feeding, increasing in both extent and severity.

The disease Ascochyta blight, caused by <i>Ascochyta rabiei</i>, makes production risky. Small plot trials at four Saskatchewan locations from 2018 to 2022 aimed to test the hypothesis that intercropping chickpea with flax reduces Ascochyta blight. Three factors were tested: flax seeding rate, row arrangement (both crops in the same rows vs. in alternating rows) and nitrogen fertilizer application. Intercropping with flax reduced disease when all site-years were considered. The site-years differed in disease, ranging from < 1 on a 0–9 scale to 4.0, considered moderate disease. At the one site-year where seed infection was seen, higher flax seeding rates reduced the fraction of infected seeds. Nitrogen fertilization resulted in more severe disease overall; the results differed between site-years. Row arrangement had no overall effect on disease but had an impact on disease severity at some site-years. Higher flax seeding rates resulted in the lowest chickpea pods being higher above the ground and fewer lateral branches. Nitrogen application had the opposite impact. Mean canopy relative humidity and temperature in the 5 days before the highest disease was recorded were impacted by intercropping, as compared to monocropping, at only one and two site-years, respectively. Changes in canopy microclimate may contribute to disease reduction in chickpea/flax intercropping under high relative humidity. Changes in chickpea morphology, such as pod height and lateral branches, may also play a role. Intercropping flax with chickpea has potential for Ascochyta blight management in Saskatchewan.
