Demand is quantified for common bean
This objective was completed ahead of schedule, but a summary is presented here. Data on production of pulses and human population suggest that per capita consumption must be declining. This raises critical questions among ...
Evidence for genotypic differences among elite lines of common bean in the ability to remobilize photosynthate to increase yield under drought
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most important food legume for human consumption. Drought stress is the major abiotic stress limitation of bean yields in smallholder farming systems worldwide. The current work ...
Sowing density effect on common bean leaf area development
Sowing density is a major management factor that affects growth and development of grain
crops by modifying the canopy light environment and interplant competition for water and
nutrients. While the effects of sowing ...
Physiological traits associated with drought resistance in Andean and Mesoamerican genotypes of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most important grain legume for human consumption, and drought stress affects over 60% of dry bean production worldwide. Field and rainout shelter studies were conducted at the ...
