https://hdl.handle.net/10568/83246
Abstract
During a review of Phaseolus under-taken by the senior author to clarify the variability of the P. coccineus L. species complex, a few herbarium specimens of what appeared to be a new species from Costa Rica and Panama were encountered. Subsequent field collecting by the junior author confirmed this…

Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli in tepary beans (Phaseolus acutifolius)
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/44044
Abstract
More than 60 accessions of tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius) and five cultivars of common bean (P. vulgaris) were evaluated for disease reactions to different races of wilt-causing Fusarium (F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli) under glasshouse conditions; 95% of the tepary accessions were resistant. Resistant sources included both…

https://hdl.handle.net/10568/44010
Abstract
Over 150 bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) pure lines and accessions were evaluated in growth chamber and greenhouse trials for reactions to one or more populations of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) collected from Colombia or the United States. Bean pure lines and accessions were evaluated for root galling severity and nematode egg mass…

The ideal cassava plant for maximum yield
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/88470
Abstract
A series of trials were carried out using cassava. Crop growth rate increased with leaf area up to LAI 4; root growth rate increased up to LAI 3-3.5, then declined. LAI is determined by leaf size, leaf formation rate and individual leaf life. Leaf size reached a max 4 mo after planting and then decreased; the max was a varietal character. Leaf life was reduced by shading but in…

Abstract
The bean pod weevil (Apion godmani Wagner) is a serious insect pest of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown in Mexico and Central America that is best controlled by host-plant resistance available in Durango or Jalisco genotypes such as J-117. Given unreliable infestation by the insect, the use of marker-assisted…
