Phaseolin diversity as a possible strategy to improve the nutritional value of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris)

This article proposes a new way to improve the protein quality of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). It is based on the natural variability found in the different types of phaseolin, its main storage protein (40 50% of the total protein).
