| Abstract: | Incredible diversity is found in the pod and seed morphology of the climbing type common bean landraces of Lushai hills of Mizoram, India. Twenty three such pole-type common bean landraces, consumed locally for seeds and pods, were collected from different districts of Lushai hills during 2008-13. Seeds were multiplied and evaluated for nutrients and antioxidant diversity. A significant diversity was found for seed N, P, K, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe, ash content, total phenol, diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and azinobisethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activity. Correlation analysis indicated numerous significant positive and negative correlations among nutrients. Principle component analysis (PCA) assessed the patterns of variation by taking all the nutrients variables together. The first four PCs accounted for 74% of the total variation. PC1 (26%) and PC2 (21%) showed the highest variability among all the PCs. Landraces MZFB-47, MZFB-41, MZFB-83, MZFB-116, MZFB-52, MZFB-28, MZFB-116 and MZFB-85 were found to be the most promising ones with highest N, P, K, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe and ash content while, total phenol, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity were found maximum in MZFB-97. The study generated information about the nutritional importance of this precious, yet unstudied diversity of landraces which can be conserved, promoted and utilized for selecting and improving superior nutritious common bean lines. |
