Abstract
DNA polymorphism and variation in virulence of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam), the causal agent of cassava bacterial blight, were studied within a pathogen population from Venezuela. Collections were made in several fields at different sites within an edaphoclimatic zone where cassava is a major crop. DNA polymorphism was…

Selection for drought resistance in common bean also improves yield in phosphorus limited and favorable environments
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/44079
Abstract
An estimated 60% of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) production worldwide is at risk of drought. A breeding program was developed at the International Center of Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) to create drought resistant breeding lines with varietal potential in the small red, small black, cream (mulatinho) and cream-striped (carioca) grain classes. Breeding populations were…
