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

Snap beans are cultivars of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) that are cultivated for their fleshy immature pods that exhibit a wide diversity of pod shapes and sizes. The genetic basis of the snap bean pod shape is complex and involves the interaction of

Abstract ‘NemaSnap’ is the first bush snap bean cultivar with resistance to the southern root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita (Ko-foid & White) Chitwood. ‘NemaSnap’ is a useful bean for home and market gardens infested with large populations of root-knot nematodes due to continuous cropping with susceptible vegetable species. ‘NemaSnap’ offers

Searching for modified growth patterns with tomographic surveys [PDF]
In alternative theories of gravity, designed to produce cosmic acceleration at the current epoch, the growth of large scale structure can be modified. We study the potential of upcoming and future tomographic surveys such as DES and LSST, with the aid of

Local adaptation of aboveground herbivores towards plant phenotypes induced by soil biota [PDF]
Background: Soil biota may trigger strong physiological responses in plants and consequently induce distinct phenotypes. Plant phenotype, in turn, has a strong impact on herbivore performance.

SNP Assay Development for Linkage Map Construction, Anchoring Whole-Genome Sequence, and Other Genetic and Genomic Applications in Common Bean. [PDF]
A total of 992,682 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) was identified as ideal for Illumina Infinium II BeadChip design after sequencing a diverse set of 17 common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) varieties with the aid of next-generation sequencing ...

THE TENNESSEE SNAP BEAN INDUSTRY [PDF]
Snap beans comprise the largest acreage of any vegetable crop grown in Tennessee with an annual production of about 6,000 hectares. Approximately two-thirds of the production is for five fresh market packers and the rest is primarily for two large processors located within the state. Most production is machine harvested with over 50 harvesters owned by

Selection of snap beans progenies to improve physiological quality of seeds
Research on snap bean seed production is essential for this crop to compete against other species that have better production technologies. This study aimed to select a physiological quality evaluation test for snap beans to improve progeny selection ...

Biological relationship of Bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) infecting cowpea with leguminous plant species [PDF]
Bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) associated with cowpea mechanically inoculated to different legumi-nous plants. Out of nineteen including cowpea Var.C-152, the virus was easily transferred to ten different legumi-nous hosts.

Genetic Diversity within Snap Beans and Their Relation to Dry Beans [PDF]
Two hundred forty-six snap bean genotypes and 49 dry beans representing both centers of domestication and six bean races with materials from Europe, Asia, and the Americas were genotyped using a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. The data was analyzed for expected heterozygosity, K-means clustering, principal components, phylogenetic ...
