Use of Wild Relatives and Closely Related Species to Adapt Common Bean to Climate Change (2013, background): “There is an outstanding feature in the Andes: while wild P. vulgaris is commonly distributed in inter-Andean valleys towards the eastern slope [22], in Ecuador and northwestern Peru, it is distributed towards the western slope [23].”
Agricultural Origins: Centers and Noncenters; A Near Eastern Reappraisal (2010, background): “A recent study on common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) traced the geographical origin of common bean to the LermaSantiago basin of Mexico (Kwak et al., 2009), which is several hundred kilometers away from the central Balsas River drainage where maize is presumed to have originated (Matsuoka et al.,…”
Origin of agriculture and plant domestication in West Mesoamerica (2010, background): “The autoecological traits and altitude distribution of putative wild ancestral populations for maize and beans suggest that agriculture could have begun at intermediate elevations (600–1,600 masl), including at the oak forest ecotone (Buckler et al. 2006; Kwak et al. 2009).”
Plant Domestication and Crop Evolution in the Near East: On Events and Processes (2012, background): “…et al., 2002), potato (Spooner et al., 2005), sunflower (Harter et al., 2004), pearl millet (Oumar et al., 2008), Meso-American common bean (Kwak et al., 2009), soybean (Guo et al., 2010), cassava (Olsen and Schaal, 2001), African rice (Li et al., 2011), and indeed Asian rice as well…”
Genomics of Origin, Domestication and Evolution of Phaseolus vulgaris (2014, background): “For the Mesoamerican gene pool, different studies have suggested both single (Gepts et al. 1986; Papa and Gepts 2003; Kwak and Gepts 2009; Kwak et al. 2009; Rossi et al. 2009) and multiple domestication events (Singh et al. 1991a, b, c; Beebe et al. 2000; Chacón et al. 2005).”
