Tolerance to Phosphorus Deficiency Improves Seed Phytic Acid‐to‐Iron Molar Ratios in Common Bean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although significant advances have been achieved in the biofortification of common beans to overcome deficiencies in Zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), the mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We thus explored the relationships between phosphorus nutrition and Zn and Fe accumulation in four bean genotypes (Edar, Nizok, Colorado and Chimbolos ...

Multi‐Elemental Analysis for Geographical Tracing of Chickpeas Produced in Nearby Locations Around a Protected Geographical Indication

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The multi‐elemental profile has repeatedly been proposed as a reliable indicator of the geographical origin of plant‐derived foods, as mineral composition accurately reflects the local soil geochemistry and environmental factors. However, this approach may fail in distinguishing specimens from nearby locations, which are expected to be exposed

Methyl Jasmonate Seed Priming Mitigates the Defence‐Growth Trade‐Off and Tailors Plant Response to Specific Pests

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.

Microclimate modification and insect pest exclusion using agronet improve pod yield and quality of french bean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
French bean [Phaseolus vulgaris (L.)] is among the leading export vegetable in Africa, mostly produced by small-scale farmers. Unfavorable environmental conditions and heavy infestations by insect pests are among the major constraints limiting production

Protoplast fusion technology for somatic hybridisation in Phaseolus [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2008
The success of interspecific breeding between Phaseolus vulgaris L. (PV) and the two donor species Phaseolus coccineus L. (PC) or Phaseolus polyanthus Greenm. (PP) requires the utilization of the donor species as female parents.

Biosynthesis of cyanogenic glucosides in Phaseolus lunatus and the evolution of oxime‐based defenses

open access: yesPlant Direct, 2020
Lima bean, Phaseolus lunatus, is a crop legume that produces the cyanogenic glucosides linamarin and lotaustralin. In the legumes Lotus japonicus and Trifolium repens, the biosynthesis of these two α‐hydroxynitrile glucosides involves cytochrome P450 ...

Colletotrichum species with curved conidia from herbaceous hosts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Colletotrichum (Glomerellaceae, Sordariomycetes) species with dark setae and curved conidia are known as anthracnose pathogens of a number of economically important hosts and are often identified as C. dematium.

The role of octadecanoids and functional mimics in soybean defense responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Oxylipins of the jasmonate pathway and synthetic functional analogs have been analyzed for their elicitor like activities in an assay based on the induced accumulation of glyceollins, the phytoalexins of soybean (Glycine max L.), in cell suspension ...

Effects of Elevated CO2 on Bean Pod Mottle Virus Infection in Both Incompatible and Compatible Interactions With Phaseolus vulgaris L

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses cause significant crop losses, a situation that could worsen due to anthropogenic activities driving global climate change, one factor of which is the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration. This study assessed the impact of elevated CO2 concentration (eCO2, 1000 vs. 400 ppm) on two genotypes of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris
