Elucidation of the low resistant starch phenotype in Phaseolus vulgaris exhibited in the yellow bean Cebo Cela.

Abstract excerpt

Dry beans(Phaseolus vulgaris) are rich in complex carbohydrates including resistant starch (RS). RS, the starch fraction that escapes digestion, typically ranges from 35% in raw beans to 4% in cooked beans. A low RS bean genotype, Cebo Cela, was identified with 96% less RS (1.5% RS) than normal raw beans. The goal of this research was to elucidate the factors responsible for this low RS phenotype. The low RS...
