An invasive seed-beetle species cowpea weevil Callosobruchus phaseoli (Gyllenhal, 1833), was found in the south-eastern Kazakhstan (Almaty city) for the first time. Its areal includes India (species origin), South and Central America, Europe, Middle East (Israel), North Africa, Arabian Peninsula, Far East, China, Japan, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Burma, Philippines, Hawaiian Islands, Australia, and Oceania. Damaged plants are adzuki bean Vigna angularis (Willd.) Ohwi & H. Ohashi (1969), mung bean Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek, broad bean Vicia faba Linnaeus, 1753, pea Pisum sativum Linnaeus, 1753, pigeon pea Cajanus cajan (L.) Huth, 1893, hyacinth bean Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet, 1826, Wisteria sp., lima bean Phaseolus lunatus Linnaeus, 1753, common bean Phaseolus vulgaris Linnaeus, 1753 and other species of beans, chickpea Cicer arietinum Linnaeus, 1753, Sesbania sp., rattlepod Crotalaria spectabilis Roth., lupine Lupinus sp. Emerged beetles immediately mate and begin to lay eggs on the same day. Beetle damage both in field and in storage. We were not able to find the species during the monitoring of agriculture lands and natural landscapes near the city. We assumed that the invasion occurred recently and the species did not have time to spread outside Almaty. Since C. phaseoli was discovered in Almaty, which is a transit crossroad for many trade routes, further species distribution should be predicted. The most probable corridor for further invasion of cowpea weevil in Kazakhstan is the south and southeast parts of the country, namely Almaty, Zhambyl, Turkestan, and Kyzylorda oblast's.

Objective. This study has been conducted to determine the protein efficiency ratio (PER) of selected indigenous legumes, namely pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) and lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus), as alternative protein sources. Methods. Experimental diets (pigeon pea-based and lima bean-based) and control diet (casein-based) were formulated and standardized using proximate analysis to have 10% protein basal diet based on the Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) guidelines. Diets were given to corresponding groups (2 experimental, 1 control) using 30 albino Sprague-Dawley weanling rats aged 21 days old, over a 28-day growth assay. Results. Results showed that the mean final weight and weight gain were significantly higher in rats fed with caseinbased diet (p<0.05 for both parameters) compared to those fed with pigeon pea-based diet and lima bean-based diet. The two experimental groups showed no significant difference between their mean final weights and weight changes (p=1, p>0.05). The PER of the casein (3.37 ± 2.71) is higher than that of the pigeon pea (1.87) and lima bean (1.32). These results can be attributed to the presence of anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) in the seeds of pigeon pea and lima bean. Reduced protein intake (due to bitter taste), toxicity, and interference with protein digestibility (through interaction with digestive enzymes) imparted by these ANFs can explain the weight loss among the experimental groups and consequently the low PER. Heat treatment done in the study were not adequate to remove the ANFs. Conclusion. The study shows that pigeon pea and lima bean as protein sources alone are not as adequate and efficient in providing necessary protein requirements for weanling rats. Proper processing and treatment should be done to remove inhibitors of protein digestibility and quality.

Soybean is the main raw material for the making of tempeh. Currently the domestic soybean production is still not able to fullfill the needs of local tempeh industry, so the fulfillment of the needs of the raw material became dependent on imports. An alternative solution that can be used to reduce the reliance of imported soybeans are against using the beans such as local hyacinth bean known as komak with brown and white seed (Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet), kratok or komak kace (Phaseolus lunatus), gude/lebui (Cajanus cajan) as an alternative to the main raw material in the making of tempeh. This research aims to uncover the total seed protein content of the beans before  and after processed into tempeh. Protein content tests done with the Kjehdahl method, water content by the method of oven (gravimetric) as well as the ash levels with the furnice method. The results showed that there is a difference in the levels of protein content when the seed processed into tempe. The highest seed protein content owned by lebui/gude (20.90%), komak with white seed (20.26%), komak with brown color seed (20.24%), and komak kace/kratok (18.73%). After being processed into tempeh, protein content from the highest is white seed komak/hyacinth bean tempeh (14.70%), lebui tempeh (12.23%), komak kace/kratok tempeh (11,81%), and tempeh made by komak/hyacinth bean with brown seeds (9.89%).
