Achievements and limitations of contemporary common bean breeding using conventional and molecular approaches (2009, background): “Therefore, crosses with wild relatives could result in the identification of unique traits or greater genetic variability of existing traits such as seed yield (Acosta-Gallegos et al. 2007).”
Use of Wild Relatives and Closely Related Species to Adapt Common Bean to Climate Change (2013, methodology): “Although wild beans tend to be viney, indeterminate plants with small seed, plant breeders at CIAT have been able to recover acceptable seed size and agronomic traits using the inbred backcross breeding method [3].”
Breeding food legumes for resistance to storage insect pests: potential and limitations. (2011, background): “Entomologists have investigated morphological and biochemical bases of resistance to storage insect pests [13,25,28,29,42].”
Genomics of Origin, Domestication and Evolution of Phaseolus vulgaris (2014, background): “Nearly, all of the evidence regarding genetic diversity in the common bean is based on multilocus molecular markers (see Papa et al. 2006, and Acosta-Gallegos et al. 2007, for reviews).”
