Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processes for recovering valuable products from Fabaceae family plant fractions, in particular from Medicago sativa ssp. The processes disclosed herein include processes for obtaining macrofibers, microfibers, a saponin precursor, chloroplast liquid and dry compositions and a Rubisco precursor. There is also disclosed herein processes for extracting from Fabaceae family plants valuable compounds such as proteins, enzymes, peptides, amino acids, fatty acids, fatty alcohols, terpenes, phenols and pigments. The processes may comprise at least one of separating plant fibers while attenuating shear forces, maintaining the temperature at or below 45° C., maintaining the pH above 4 and adding antioxidant and/or antimicrobial agents. Compositions comprising these recovered Fabaceae family plant products and uses thereof are also disclosed.

Abstract: Bacterial strains, or extracts thereof, are effective to control, treat or prevent infection of solanaceous plants with Phytophthora infestans, the causative agent of potato late blight disease. Also provided are biopesticidal formulations containing one or more of the bacterial strains or extracts thereof, and the use of the bacterial strains, extracts or biopesticidal formulations in the control, treatment and/or prevention of potato late blight disease.
