Bean Breeding



As of July, CIAT's Library is exhibiting books, thesis, reports and other documents on "Beans Breeding”. The exhibition includes: selection, hybridization, crossbreeding, resistance to environmental stress and to insect pests and diseases, marker-assisted selection, genetic resources, among others. Some of the publications are listed below:



  • Common bean improvement in the twenty-first century. 1999. Singh, Shree P. (ed.).
  • Selection for drought resistance in common bean also improves yield in phosphorus limited and favorable environments. 2008. Beebe, S.E., Rao, I.M.; Cajiao, C.; Grajales, M. (Crop Science 48:582-592).
  • Genetic mapping of the bean golden yellow mosaic geminivirus resistance gene bgm-1 and linkage with potyvirus resistance in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) 2007. Blair, M.W.; Rodriguez, L.M.; Pedraza, F.; Morales, F.; Beebe, S.E. (Theoretical and Applied Genetics 114: 261-271).
