Abstract
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) breeding seeking to combine high productivity and cold tolerance for the temperate Latin America region is an important challenge. We estimated some useful parameters which can be used to investigate the genetic control of agronomic characters in crosses combining cold tolerance and productivity. A partial diallel design…

https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43856
Abstract
The use of tropical grass legume mixtures containing the grasses Brachiaria decumbens or Andropogon gayanus associated with a mixture of several herbaceous legumes was tested on farms in the rainforest area of Pucallpa, Peru. Pastures were established by farmers using manual labour and without fertilizer in previously deforested areas covered…

Phaseolin from Phaseolus vulgaris bean modulates gut mucin flow and gene expression in rats
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43940
Abstract
Dietary protein might modulate mucin flow and intestinal mucin gene expression. Since unheated phaseolin from Phaseolus vulgaris bean is resistant to digestion and increases gut endogenous protein losses, we hypothesised that unheated phaseolin influences mucin flow and gene expression, and that phaseolin heat treatment reverses…

QTL analysis of seed iron, zinc, and phosphorus levels in an Andean bean population
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/42475
Abstract
Iron and zinc are essential micronutrients for human health often found in insufficient quantities in the diet. Biofortification of seed crops has been undertaken to reduce micronutrient malnutrition. The objectives of this study were to identify variability for seed Fe, Zn, P, and phytic acid levels in an F5:7 recombinant inbred line (RIL) population developed from a cross between AND696 and G19833, both…

Abstract
This paper summarizes results from a decade of collaborative research using advanced backcross (AB) populations to a) identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with improved performance in rice and to b) clone genes underlying key QTLs of interest. We demonstrate that AB-QTL analysis is capable of (1) successfully…
