Abstract Tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A. Gray), indigenous to the arid climates of northern Mexico and the Southwest United States, diverged from common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), approximately 2 million years ago and exhibits a wide range of resistance to biotic stressors.

Abstract Increasing seed yield in common bean could help to improve food security and reduce malnutrition globally due to the high nutritional quality of this crop. However, the complex genetic architecture and prevalent genotype by environment interactions for seed yield makes increasing genetic gains challenging. The aim of this study was to identify

Evolution of flowering time genes in rice: From the paleolithic to the anthropocene
Abstract The evolutionary paths of humans and plants have crossed more than once throughout millennia. While agriculture contributed to the evolution of societies in prehistory, human selection of desirable traits contributed to the evolution of crops during centuries of cultivation.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract When feeding on a plant, herbivorous insects alter the quality of the plant as a food source. This affects other organisms interacting with the same plant. These so‐called ‘plant‐mediated interactions’ can be altered by parasitoids that attack the herbivores.

Summary Terpenoids play important roles in flavour, pollinator attraction and defence of plants. In cucumber (Cucumis sativus) they are important components of the herbivore‐induced plant volatile blend that attracts natural enemies of herbivores. We annotated the cucumber TERPENE SYNTHASE gene (CsTPS) family and characterized their involvement in the ...

Síntomas del amachamiento del frijol común
El amachamiento del frijol es provocado por el nematodo foliar Aphelenchoides besseyi Christie. Esta enfermedad puede ser reconocida a través de los síntomas de necrosis angular, deformación foliar, senectud tardía y ausencia de vainas. Inicialmente, se le denominó “falsa mancha angular” a los síntomas de necrosis angular. Además, de manera errónea, la

Network analyses of 6528 bats associated with 6077 ectoparasitic bat flies revealed extremely high host specificity, with organisation of the network in small subsets reflecting a highly modular network structure. Module structure appeared not to be host‐phylogeny driven, instead modules were often composed of bat species known to share roosting ...

The bean method as a tool to measure sensitive behavior
Abstract Conservationists need to measure human behavior to guide decisions and evaluate their impact. However, activities can be misreported and reporting accuracy may change following conservation interventions, making it hard to verify any apparent changes.

El artículo presenta un análisis comparativo de los cariotipos de cuatro especies del género Phaseolus L., una de ellas evidenciada porprimera vez enel presente trabajo. Se describen los cromosomas de cada cariotipo en función de su longitud relativa (L), índice centromérico (I) y otras peculiaridades individuales y se propone un sistema para ...
