Oregon is the largest producer of
green beans for processing
in the United States.
Because the repeated use of a single herbicide
may lead to
changes in the weed population, build
up of residues, and other
undesirable factors, a continuous search for
new herbicides is
taking place.

Experiments were performed to determine the nature of
maize influence on bean disease in additive-type
intercrops. Overall effects of intercrops on angular leaf
spot (caused by Phaeoisariopsis griseola) in Kenya
indicated >23% reductions (P<0.05) in area under the
disease progress curve (AUDPC) in two of three season-site
combinations. Fertilization tended...
Thiamin and ascorbic acid content and retention were determined
in raw, blanched, pouched and canned green beans immediately
after processing and after storage for four months at room temperature
or at 37.5°C. Ascorbic acid was also determined in raw, pouched
and canned Royal Ann cherries immediately after processing and after...
Esterase activity of an aqueous extract of the green bean was
separated into fourteen bands, while aqueous extracted pea esterases
revealed seven bands, by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The
fourteen bands of bean esterase activity formed three groups; slow,
intermediate and fast moving. α-Naphthyl acetate, propionate, and
n-butyrate and AS naphthol acetate...
This investigation was conducted to differentiate the esterases
in a water extract of freeze-dried green beans on the basis of inhibitor
and substrate specificities. An attempt was made to classify
these esterases according to the criteria used for animal esterases.
Activity of the esterases was measured manometrically using
the Gilson...
