Fine-mapping of angular leaf spot resistance gene Phg-2 in common bean and development of molecular breeding tools
This study used next-generation sequencing datasets to design new SNP-based molecular markers to identify angular leaf spot (ALS) resistance in common bean.
Genomics, genetics and breeding of common bean in Africa: A review of tropical legume project
A review of work by CIAT and its national partners in Africa to overcome production constraints of common bean and address food and nutrition needs and market demands through development of multitrait bean varieties.
Legume breeding and seed systems for improved livelihoods and impact
This abstract summarises the aims and achievements of the Tropical Legumes project with national breeding programs to develop improved groundnut varieties by identifying sources of resistance, developing populations, evaluating in target environments, and releasing improved farmer-preferred varieties for production.
Seven Seasons of Learning and Engaging Smallholder Farmers in the Drought-Prone Areas of Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia through Tropical Legumes, 2007–2014 (Integrated seed systems delivering on the promise – Experiences from Tropical Legumes II: Chapter 12 of 13)
Chapter 12 of a book published after seven years of TLII, representing an important record of the project’s work and achievements.
