El coquito (Cyperus rotundus L.) en el cultivo de yuca: Interacciones y control
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/88483
Abstract
Recent information on the biological balance between purple nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus) and cassava is analyzed; the possibilities of influencing this balance to favor cassava are also studied. The slow initial growth of cassava highly favors the development and propagation of C. rotundus, resulting in competition between the 2 species…

https://hdl.handle.net/10568/88522
Abstract
Studies were conducted at CIAT to measure the phenotypic correlations between several architectural characteristics and yield of dry beans as affected by plant density and environment (location). Four bean cv. were used to represent each bush bean growth habit (I, II, III). All 12 cv.…

https://hdl.handle.net/10568/58027
Abstract
Climate change will cause shifts in the areas suitable for cultivation of a wide range of crops including beans (Jarvis and Lane, 2007). Sub-Saharan Africa will be the region most affected.
While annual rainfall is likely to increase in East Africa due to climate change there is less consensus on variability of rainfall between and within seasons (van de…

Abstract
A survey was made of weed species, weed densities and common weeding practices on 3 visits during the growing season to some 300 farms in 5 cassava-growing regions of Colombia. Broadleaf weeds were the commonest in all regions (62-65 percent of the species); there was a shift to slightly more grasses and sedges as the cassava grew older. Surprisingly,…

Abstract
El fósforo (P) es el nutrimento más limitante para el rendimiento del frijol común (Phaseolus vulgaris L) en los trópicos y subtrópicos. En zonas marginales deficientes en P donde la producción de frijol deberá ser incrementada para satisfacer la demanda de proteina, los agricultores pobres carecen de…

Pathogenic and molecular characterization of Pythium species inducing root rot symptoms of common bean in Rwanda
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43928
Abstract
Pythium root rot constitutes a highly damaging constraint on the common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L., grown in several areas of Eastern and Central Africa. Here, this food legume is cultivated intensively under poor conditions of crop rotation due to the exiguity of the land in the region. Yield losses of up…

Characterization of AT-rich microsatellites in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/43257
Abstract
Polymorphism of microsatellite markers is often associated with the simple sequence repeat motif targeted. AT-rich microsatellites tend to be highly variable and this appears to be notable, especially in legume genomes. To analyze the value of AT-rich microsatellites for common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), we developed a total of 85 new microsatellite markers, 74 of which targeted ATA or other AT-rich motif…

Abstract
Bronzing was observed in many of the bean trials conducted at Fort Collins (Colorado, USA) during 1982 to study the influence of water and shading stress on photosynthesis and protein content of 3 dry bean var., Roza, Pinto U.I. 111, and Olathe. Bronzing symptoms appeared during the late flowering and pod formation stages. A scale of…
