Journal ArticleDOI
Beans (Phaseolus spp.) - model food legumes
William J. Broughton,Georgina Hernández,Matthew W. Blair,Stephen E. Beebe,Paul Gepts,Jozef Vanderleyden +5 more
TL;DR: An international consortium called `Phaseomics' is formed to establish the necessary framework of knowledge and materials that will result in disease-resistant, stress-tolerant, high-quality protein and high-yielding beans, which will be instrumental in improving living conditions in deprived regions of Africa and the Americas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenotyping common beans for adaptation to drought.
TL;DR: Efforts to improve common bean for drought tolerance are reviewed, referring to genetic diversity for drought response, the physiology of drought tolerance mechanisms, and breeding strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Research on Trace Minerals in the Common Bean
TL;DR: Genetic differences have been expressed over environments and seasons, offering good prospects that genotypes selected in one environment for high iron or zinc will express superior levels of minerals in other environments as well.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection for Drought Resistance in Common Bean Also Improves Yield in Phosphorus Limited and Favorable Environments
TL;DR: It is suggested that selection under drought stress reveals genes that correct inefficiencies inherited from the wild Phaseolus vulgaris, and are key to yield improvement of common bean.
Journal ArticleDOI
QTL mapping of root hair and acid exudation traits and their relationship to phosphorus uptake in common bean
TL;DR: It is proposed that marker-assisted selection (MAS) might be a feasible alternative to conventional screening of phenotypic root traits in a recombinant inbred line population.
