Evidence is presented about the presence of Phaseolus microcarpus in Costa Rica, while it was previously reported northwards in other Central American countries and Mexico. Fourteen populations are currently known, four from the Peninsula of Nicoya, and ten are in the tropical dry forest of the m...

Successful interspecific hybridization between Phaseolus vulgaris L. and P. costaricensis Freytag & Debouck
Interest in bean genetic resources of Central America has resumed because of disease pressures (e.g., web blight, BGMV) and limitations of current bean varieties. As most of the diversity in landraces has been explored, focus is now on the exploration of wild forms of the primary gene pool and wi...

Observations on the geographic distribution, ecology and conservation status of several phaseolus bean species in Costa Rica
A new species of Phaseolus (Legumi nosae, Phaseolinae) has been found in the montane forests of the Sierra de Talamanca in eastern Costa Rica, where it appears endemic. Distinctive traits include: radicant roots, purplish red internodes, veins of leaflets, primary bracts, inner face of stan dard,...

During a 3-wk. trip to western Guatemala to collect bean germplasm, 88 seed samples were collected, representing 10 species in different forms. The germplasm involves 3 cultivated species (coccineus, polyanthus, and vulgaris), the ancestral forms of coccineus, lunatus, and polyanthus, and 3 wild ...

A survey was carried out in Central Costa Rica in Jan. 1987, in an attempt to find web blight resistance in native var.; 43 samples representing 10 different taxa were found. Wild P. vulgaris was found in 2 different places in the province of San Jose; both populations presented truly wild charac...

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) has evolved rapidly in Africa and is steadily transforming from a traditional
subsistence to a market-oriented crop, with major impacts on household incomes, food and nutritional security,
and national economies. However, these benefits are yet to be felt in ma...
