The papers in this volume were originally presented at a workshop on participatory plant breeding. The workshop was convened to crystallize a novel approach that plant breeders, genetic resource conservationists and social scientists were demonstrating with increasing success. That approach is to...

Without enforced standards or reliable third‐party verification, food safety threats such as pesticide residues and aflatoxin contamination are generally unobservable or only partially observable to both buyers and sellers, especially of staple foods in rural maize markets in sub‐Saharan Africa. ...

The selection response of a complex maize population improved primarily for quantitative disease resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB) and secondarily for common rust resistance and agronomic phenotypes was investigated at the molecular genetic level. A tiered marker analysis with 151 simple s...

Seed multiplication, agronomic evaluation, and identification of parental genotypes for interspecific hybridization with Phaseolus vulgaris constitute the main research activities carried out in the P. coccineus collection (around 1600 accessions) held by CIAT. In 1985, 3 Ascochyta screening tria...

An experiment was conducted on an Ultisol at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) High Rainfall Station, Onne, in the humid forest zone of south-eastern Nigeria. The objective of the study was to define groups of multipurpose trees using multiple variables to select material...

Yields of large-seeded Andean (A) common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars of Chile and Nueva Granada races are 40 to 60% lower compared to their Middle American (M) counterparts of small-seeded Mesoamerica and medium-seeded Durango races. Our objective was to use the concept of congruity ba...

Significant advances in increasing tolerance to the leafhopper Empoasca kraemeri Ross & Moore in common bean have been obtained using a new breeding scheme where yield under leafhopper attack is the principal selection criterion in the evaluation of progenies. However, to further refine this bree...
