This review article discusses the applications of legume-based materials for applications in encapsulation technology. The traditional and modern encapsulating techniques are listed. Legume flour, proteins, and starch are effective transporters for the unstable and highly reactive components. Besides physical, biochemical, and chemical modifications of legume-based proteins and their combinations with polysaccharides are the advanced stages of research. Some functional features of legume proteins have been enhanced by various modifications and combinations with polysaccharides. As a consequence, significant effectiveness has been achieved in encapsulation efficiency. Few active core materials produced from legumes have been effectively enclosed with other wall materials. Furthermore, encapsulated products containing legume wall material have been shown to demonstrate controlled release and increased bioavailability of bioactive components. More research investigations are required to study the health implications of both short-term and long-term consumption of these encapsulated products.

Improved seed quality and resistance to Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV) are the important objectives of the urdbean breeding program. For this, knowledge of inheritance for seed quality traits and MYMIV resistance is essentially required. Therefore, an attempt has been made to understand the inheritance of seed traits like seed luster, seed coat color, mosaic on seed surface, and MYMIV reaction using intra- and inter-specific bi-parental populations. The inheritance results revealed that in DPU88-31 × LBG-685 population, the shining seed registered dominance over the dull trait, while the green seed coat color exhibited dominance over the brown seed coat color. However, the inter-specific F<sub>2</sub> population derived from IPU11-02 × Pant M 6 deviated significantly from Mendelian ratios and supported severe segregation distortion for seed traits, while the mosaic on seed coat or mottling character studied in interspecific population demonstrated a dominant digenic inheritance pattern. In five inter- and intra-specific F<sub>2</sub> populations, MYMIV resistance demonstrated monogenic dominant inheritance, which was also validated in F<sub>3</sub> generations. Furthermore, linkage analysis exhibited an association between seed luster and seed coat color, while no association was noticed between seed traits and MYMIV resistance. The normality tests revealed that seed width and 100 seeds weight were controlled by a few major genes, while other quantitative traits were governed by many genes with small additive effects. The skewness suggested that complementary gene interactions were present among genes controlling 100 seed weight in the intra-specific cross, while duplicate gene interactions were involved in the inter-specific cross. The identified monogenic traits and linked morphological marker after further enrichment of the linkage group could be used as an important tool in the regular breeding program.</p>","PeriodicalId":17929,"journal":{"name":"Legume Science","volume":"5 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/leg3.180","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44994143","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}

Nitrogen-fixing grain legumes are considered important sources of protein in many developing countries as they are generally cheaper than meat or cereals. Extensive research has been conducted on several underutilized legumes with similar nutritional properties to soybean; one of these legumes is velvet beans (<i>Mucuna pruriens</i>).

Although the sesame protein dispersions showed pseudoplastic behavior, the shear-thickening effect of sesame proteins at higher concentrations makes it possible to apply in beverages without increasing viscosity. The low values of the yield point of the sesame protein explained its feasibility for utilization in varying products such as high-protein-enriched beverages without the adverse effect of the high viscosity. The fracture stress and strain indicated the high strength of the sesame protein to the mechanical changes. The mechanical properties of the sesame proteins also confirmed typical strong gel behavior.

The frequency dependency of the protein was shown a low <i>n</i> value that explains a relatively elastic gel structure.

The seeds of fenugreek contain 26.8% soluble fiber chemically identified as galactomannans with properties similar to soluble fiber of guar seeds and psyllium husk and so on. Galactomannans are biopolymers consisting of linear core poly (1,4)‐β‐D‐mannan backbone having varying degrees of D‐galactosyl substituents attached by 1,6‐glycosidic linkages. Different galactomannans derived from various legumes usually differ in molecular weight, ratio of mannose to galactose, and the mode and place of linkages of galactose moieties to the mannan backbone. Fenugreek gum has a galactose to mannose ratio of 1:1, showing the highest amount of galactose resulting in its highest water solubility compared with guar and locust bean gum. It suggested that the galactose and mannose moieties are linked uniformly in fenugreek gum resulting in maximum hydration and solubility. This M/G ratio affects the physicochemical properties of galactomannans and is inversely related to the solubility of gum. Galactomannans sterically stabilize the emulsions against flocculation and coalescence by getting adsorbed onto oil droplets. In addition to this, galactomannans are all found to exhibit some surface, interfacial, and emulsification activities. Because of these properties, it is preferred over other natural hydrocolloids as an excellent ingredient for various food applications. As a hydrocolloid, fenugreek gum provides texture, appeal, gelling, thickening, emulsifying, stabilizing, and encapsulating properties.
