Two trials were conducted at the CIAT expt station in Cali, Colombia, to measure the effect of spatial arrangement at fixed planting densities on cassava root yield. In expt I, 3 cassava cv. of different growth habit were planted at 10,000 plants/ha and arranged in 5 different patterns. Experimen...

The growth of 9 grain legumes under irrigated conditions was analyzed at CIAT to evaluate bean efficiency in grain production. The representative genotypes of each sp. were selected from preliminary var. evaluations. The most efficient spp. in yield production/day were soybeans, cowpeas and beans...

Research on lima beans (Phaseolus lunatus) was conducted regarding adaptation, resistance to common bacterial blight (Xanthomonas phaseoli), resistance to leafhoppers (Empoasca kraemeri), and cyanide concn. in lima bean seed. In adaptation studies 36 climbing lima bean lines were selected from th...

Some basic definitions on genetics in relation to bean cultivation are presented in which a description is given on how to use this information in a breeding program. Examples are given on the management of quantitative characters (yield and plant height) controlled by different genes and qualita...
The Central American Adaptation Nursery (VIDAC 1988), comprising the best black- and red-seeded lines evaluated in the 1987 VIDAC, was established to identify well-adapted bean genotypes and obtain information on their degree of resistance to different crop problems. Outstanding (1) black-seeded ...
