The CIAT Bean Program uses a 3-stage progeny evaluation program asfollows: (a) the VEF, which in 1984 contained 1004 entries distributed in 10 groups according to seed color and size, growth habit (bush or climbing), and climatic adaptation; (b) the EP, which consisted of 446 entries and 38 contr...
El Programa de Frijol del CIAT utiliza un programa de evaluacion de progenie de 3 etapas como sigue: a) el VEF, que en 1984 contenia 1004 entradas distribuidas en 10 grupos segun el color y tamano de la semilla, habito de crecimiento (arbustivo o voluble) y adaptacion climatica; b) el EP, que con...
During 1986, research emphasis was shifted to BGMV while BCMV research focused on the incorporation of blackroot resistance in African germplasm and the backcrossing of I gene into Latin American var. The identification of alternate host plant species for BGMV is critical in the understanding of ...
Durante 1986 el enfasis en investigacion se desplazo hacia BGMV en tanto que la investigacion sobre BCMV se enfoco hacia la incorporacion de la resistencia a la pudricion negra en el germoplasma africano y el retrocruzamiento del gen I a var. latinoamericanas. La identificacion de especies de pla...
