Abstract
The integration of multipurpose legumes into low-input tropical agricultural systems is needed because they are a nitrogen (N) input through symbiotic fixation. The drought-tolerant cover legume canavalia (Canavalia brasiliensis) has been introduced for use either as forage or as a green manure…

Generation of a mutant population for TILLING common bean genotype BAT 93
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43058
Abstract
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is the major food legume worldwide, making it an important target for novel approaches of genetic analysis. This study evaluated the use of ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) for the generation of a mutant population for targeted induced local lesions in genomes (TILLING) in common bean. TILLING is a powerful reverse…

Abstract
The resistance of 9 bean cv. to isolates of Thanatephorus cucumeris collected from either leaves (Th-5) or roots (Rs-8) of infected plants was tested under controlled conditions in growth chambers (22-25 degrees Celsius, 80-100 percent RH and 12 h artificial light). Adequate concn. of inoculum of virulent isolates were used…

Abstract
Aspects related to breeding programs in cassava, the impact of past strategies and exptl results related to them are discussed. Even though sources of resistance have been identified for the majority of the diseases and pests, in addition to tolerance to adverse edaphic and climatic factors, it is difficult to combine these characters in one var.…

Generation means analysis of climbing ability in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43479
Abstract
Climbing common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes have among the highest yield potential of all accessions found in the species. Genetic improvement of climbing beans would benefit from an understanding of the inheritance of climbing capacity (made up of plant height [PH] and internode length [IL] traits). The objective of this…
