Investigations were conducted at CIAT to develop methodology required to evaluate resistance to Isariopsis griseola inherent in bean germplasm and breeding progeny. Abundant sporulation by the pathogen has been achieved by growing isolates in the lab. on V-8 medium incubated at 19 degrees Celsius...

Preliminary investigations of pathogenic variability expressed by Isariopsis griseola
A description is given of the format of the International Bean Rust Nursery (IBRN) established during a 1974 workshop of research workers from various countries. The objectives of the IBRN are to (a) identify cv. and breeding lines resistant to a wide spectrum of the pathogenic potential inherent...
A rapid, reliable laboratory-screenhouse technique was developed to evaluate bean germplasm for resistance to and detect pathogenic variability of Fusarium oxysporum. (CIAT)

Fusarium wilt screening technique for dry bean development
Data obtained from the international Bean Rust Nursery (IBRN) in 1975-76 showed that none of the 132 cv. and breeding lines tested was resistant to bean rust; however, some were susceptible only in specific geographical regions. CIATs bean program has concentrated its efforts on selecting rust-re...
