Assembled germplasm has provided breeders with valuable traits for the improvement of common beans. Molecular markers such as phaseolin and isozymes have facilitated understanding of the genus Phaseolus thus enabling breeders to develop more effective strategies. However, there are still gaps in ...

Existing bean variability and breeding activities at CIAT for new genetic combinations
Initial studies on snap bean production in Sumapaz, Colombia, indicated excessive use of pesticides in the region. A more in- depth investigation of how chemicals are used to control insects and diseases, and the economic and agroecological implications was thus initiated in 1989. It was found th...

Best sources of resistance in the Great Lakes Region were evaluated for stability of resistance and multi-disease resistance at four locations in Burundi, Rwanda and Zaire. Some anthracnose, Angular leaf spot and sources were found resistant at all sites. Correlation analysis also suggest pathoge...

Results of the regional nursery for the evaluation of resistance, 1988
Using the data generated by VEF (vivero equipo de frijol) and EP (ensayo preliminar de rendimiento) nurseries during 1979-86, the progress of the CIAT Bean Program during this 8-yr period of plant breeding effort is described in terms of the production of disease resistant lines and the attainmen...
