protein. The highest Methionine content was present
in Arka Vijay and Ankur 1732 and the lowest is in
Ankur Goldy. With regards to tryptophan, while the
highest content is in HA-3, the lowest is reported in
Konkan bhuahan. Stress related proline content is
highest in Ankur Goldy and e the lowest in Ankur-1732.
In leaves, while the % crude fiber ranged between
14.8% (Arka Vijay) and 31.4 % (Dipali), the % crude
protein ranged between 17.4 (Ankur 1732) and 23.8
Ankur goldy (Table 2; Table 4)
1.3 Status of Antinurtional factors present:
The indeterminate types possesses higher contents of
antinutritional factors compared to the determinate
ones. While lowest Trypsin inhibitior unit (per g of
sample) was recorded in Arka Jay, the highest
content of 8.2 in Dasara.With regards to Tannic acid,
HA-3 has highest (8.2 mg/100g) and Ankur 1732 has
the lowest (2.6 mg/100g) content.. High Total
phenolic contents were found in Deepali (10.5 mg/100
g) and the lowest in HA-3 (5.2 mg/100 g) (Table 3).
With regards to antinurtional factors, Arka Jay which
is a Dolichos bean variety is safer with low values
when compared to HA-3 which is a Field bean variety
having higher values (Table 4).
