In most taxonomic revisions of Stylosanthes Sw., Stylosanthes gracilis Kunth has been regarded as a variety or even a synonym of S. guianensis (Aubl.) Sw. This has created considerable confusion among scientists working with the latter species which is an agriculturally important tropical forage ...

Re-establishment of Stylosanthes gracilis (Leguminosae) at species level
Legumes provide essential micronutrients that are found only in low amounts in the cereals or root crops. An ongoing project at CIAT has shown that the legume common bean is variable in the amount of seed minerals (iron, zinc, and other elements), vitamins, and sulfur amino acids that they contai...

QTL analyses for seed iron and zinc concentrations in an intra-genepool population of Andean common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Host plant resistance in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a promising component in an integrated cropping system for managing thrips (Thrips palmi Karny) infestation. This study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for resistance to thrips in common bean, using F5:7 reco...

QTL mapping of resistance to Thrips palmi karny in common bean
Low soil P availability is a primary constraint to common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) production in Latin America and Africa. Substantial genotypic variation in bean adaptation to low phosphorus (LP) availability has been linked with root traits that enhance the efficiency of soil foraging. The ...

To optimize designs to implement marker-assisted introgression programs aiming to introgress three unlinked quantitative trait loci (QTL), the present paper studies different alternatives versus a traditional backcross or intercross phase. Four alternative backcross strategies appear to be more a...
