Research on lima beans (Phaseolus lunatus) was conducted regarding adaptation, resistance to common bacterial blight (Xanthomonas phaseoli), resistance to leafhoppers (Empoasca kraemeri), and cyanide concn. in lima bean seed. In adaptation studies 36 climbing lima bean lines were selected from th...

Some basic definitions on genetics in relation to bean cultivation are presented in which a description is given on how to use this information in a breeding program. Examples are given on the management of quantitative characters (yield and plant height) controlled by different genes and qualita...
Based on the considerations related to the characteristics of cassava, centers of origin, and the traditional system of cultivation, several conclusions were made regarding the relationships between the plant and NPFs, constituted by disease and pest pressures and edaphic and climatic factors. It...
