Abstract
A brief account of the bean breeding program for resistance to Thanatephorus cucumeris from 1981 to 1986 at CIAT and for Central America and the Caribbean is presented. Black and red bean parents used in the crossing programs are listed. While population selections have all been conducted under field conditions in Esparza, Costa Rica, inoculation tests under moist chamber conditions…

Abstract
In the 2nd growing season of 1984, reduced no. of materials were used to evaluate the present screening strategy and study mechanisms of drought tolerance. The new materials evaluated included 14 lines from the Brazilian national program, 100 lines from EP/84, and 3 Phaseolus vulgaris x P. acutifolius hybrid lines showing drought tolerance at the U. of California at Davis (USA). The Bean…

Abstract
The physiological processes that determine bean growth are reviewed, namely photosynthesis, respiration, DM distribution, HI, yield components, and environmental effects. Some concepts used in physiological work such as growth analysis, leaf area determination, data analysis, yield, yield components, and environmental data are discussed. (CIAT)

Abstract
During 1981 the physiology section of CIAT's Cassava Program emphasized the understanding of factors that contribute to yield under stress conditions. Regarding photoperiodic effects, long days (16 h daylength) decreased HI and root yield while increasing total DM and the no. of apices/plant in clones M PTR 26, M Col 22, and M Col 1684. Soil water stress produced stomatal closure and reduced…
