• Achievements and limitations of contemporary common bean breeding using conventional and molecular approaches (2009, background): “Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) Low soil N limits bean production throughout the world (Hungria et al. 2003).”
• Advances in Host Plant and Rhizobium Genomics to Enhance Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation in Grain Legumes (2015, background): “…soils with high populations have also shown that inoculation and re-inoculation of common bean may result in on average 20% increase in farmer’s fields growing the crop under low technology, and an increase ranging 5–25% under high input technology (Hungria et al., 2000, 2003; Mendes et al., 2007).”
• Genetic diversity of rhizobia associated with common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown under no-tillage and conventional systems in Southern Brazil (2006, background): “It is then possible that, although common bean indigenous rhizobial population in Brazilian soils is always very high (Andrade and Hungria, 2002; Hungria et al., 2003), different cropping histories might affect diversity.”
• Legumes in the reclamation of marginal soils, from cultivar and inoculant selection to transgenic approaches (2011, background): “As such, field inoculation of the common bean with selected R. tropici strains induced nodulation and improved nitrogen fixation rates, even in presence of high indigenous rhizobial populations (Hungria et al. 2003).”
• Genetic diversity of indigenous common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) rhizobia in two Brazilian ecosystems (2004, background): “A lack of response to inoculation with superior strains has often been reported for bean crops, although a search within the established population for efficient and competitive strains is feasible (Hungria et al., 2000, 2003).”
