Total seed protein variability in a sample of 163 entries of year-bean (Phaseolus polyanthus), including wild, feral and cultivated forms of the whole range of distribution in Latin America was studied using 1-dimensional SDS/PAGE and 2-dimensional IEF-SDS/PAGE. Ten different patterns were observ...

Observations on the origin of Phaseolus polyanthus Greenman
Several species of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) were found to occur in the cassava clone Secundina, which was thought to be virus- free. A large dsRNA molecule (6.6 x 106 Mr = relative molecular mass)(L-dsRNA) was shown to be graft, but not mechanically transmitted and occurred primarily in a nucl...
A geographic frequency distribution of seed protein patterns of 306 individuals belonging to Phaseolus polyanthus is presented. Plant material covered the range of distribution of P. polyanthus from Veracruz, Mexico to Cajamarca, Peru. (CIAT)

In 1986, 5 commercial bean sites near Holyoke (Colorado, USA) were treated with 4 sprays of cupric hydroxide every 7 to 10 days beginning at least 2 wk. before flowering to (1) sample for the presence of Cu resistance in naturally-occurring epiphytic populations of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syring...

Research on pseudomonas bacterial epiphytes in Colorado
Investigations during 1984 and 1985 demonstrated that Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Psp) and Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss) occur as epiphytes on dry beans in Colorado. Populations of syringae-type pseudomonads (STPs) were detected on volunteer bean plants throughout northeaster...

In summer 2007, the Asian parasitoid Binodoxys communis (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) was released in North America for control of the exotic soybean aphid, Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae). Despite its comparatively narrow host range, releases of B. communis may still constitute a risk to nativ...

While symbiotic nitrogen (N2) fixation by G. max and P. vulgaris reduces their need for combined N, N2 fixation under field conditions is rarely maximized. This paper reviews constraints to N2 fixation in these species, then examines the genetic variability recorded for traits affecting N2 fixati...
