Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period following the second world war has witnessed an expanding commitment to incr~ased food production in tropical countries. Public and private initiatives at the national and international levels have led to the creation of programs geared specifically towards the improvement of food crops in tropical conditions. Examples of this increased commitment are the network of international agricultural research centers and numerous bilateral aid projects. As a consequence, crop improvement has become a truly worldwide endeavor, relying on an international network of institutions and collaborators. This holds also for Phaseolus beans. Following the discovery of the Americas, Phaseolus beans became distributed on all six continents. Yet, until not so long ago, most of the research on Phaseolus improvement took place in developed countries. In recognition of the nutritional importance of Phaseolus beans in developing countries, this has changed considerably in the last years, principally perhaps through the activities of the Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT) and the International Board for Plant Genetic Resources (IBPGR). Consequently, the scope of the research on Phaseolus has broadened considerably and the number of Phaseolus researchers is larger than ever before.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drought is the main constraint in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) production. Although breeding efforts to increase drought resistance have shown gains in productivity, their full potential remains untapped. Improvements have been limited by the complexity of the trait involved, limited germplasm recombination, and most importantly, the poorly understood genetic basis of tolerance. To gain information about the genetics and mechanism(s) of drought adaptation, I explored the genetic diversity of wild and domesticated Mesoamerican gene pool of the species through genetic analyses in natural, bi-parental, and multi-parental populations. In the first chapter, I evaluated root and shoot traits in a large panel of wild accessions and reference domesticated cultivars, both from the Mesoamerican distribution of common bean, in a greenhouse tube experiment. The domesticated beans were, in general, more vigorous and deeper-rooted than wild beans. Nevertheless, some wild beans were outstanding in their productivity and rooting capacity. A comparison of the measured phenotypic traits with the climatic and soil characteristics of the location of origin of the individual wild bean accessions showed that most traits were significantly associated with mean annual temperature and aridity. The most deeply rooted and productive accessions originated from the driest regions. Each wild accession was genotyped with both a SNP array and a GBS platform; three populations of wild bean accessions were identified, of which the most productive, deeply rooted, and more drought-tolerant population, originating from Central and North-West Mexico and Oaxaca. Through genome-wide association analyses, genomic regions associated with productivity, root depth, and drought adaptation were identified. Some co-located with regions showing signals of selection suggesting that drought stress is a driver of local adaptation in wild common beans.In the second chapter, I investigated the effects of drought stress on the genetic architecture of photosynthate allocation and remobilization in pods, one of the main mechanisms of drought resistance and overall productivity. A bi-parental recombinant inbred line (RIL) population of the Mesoamerican gene pool was evaluated in field conditions under well-watered conditions and terminal and intermittent drought stress in two years. There was a significant effect of the water regime and year on pod harvest index (PHI), a measure of the partition of seed biomass to pod biomass, its components, phenology and grain yield at the phenotypic and QTL level. QTLs for pod harvest index, including a major, stable QTL on chromosome Pv07 was detected. For grain yield, the QTLs were not stable; however, three were detected for the overall mean across environments. There was differential co-localization of the components of PHI, co-localizing mainly with either the pod wall, seed mass, or both. Three of the eight yield QTLs co-localized with PHI QTLs, underlying the importance of photosynthate remobilization in productivity. Epistasis explained a considerable part of the variation, especially for PHI and yield. In the third chapter, to further test the value of wild variation as compared with the domesticated forms, joint linkage mapping of nested populations was carried out in three newly develop domesticated by wild backcrossed recombinant inbred line populations. The populations were developed by crossing three wild accessions representing the extreme range of rainfall of the Mesoamerican wild bean distribution to an elite drought resistant domesticated parent. Grain yield was evaluated under field conditions in two fully irrigated trials in two seasons and a simulated terminal drought in the second season. The highest yielding populations were the populations from the lower part of the rainfall distribution. The populations were genotyped and a consensus map was developed containing 721 SNP markers. Twenty QTLs were found in 13 unique regions on eight chromosomes. At least one wild allele with a significant positive additive effect was found in five of these regions. The additive effects of all the QTLs ranged from -164 to 277 kg ha−1, with some evidence of allelic series. The variation explained by these QTLs ranged from 0.6 to 5.4 % of the total variation. These results underlie the potential of wild variation for bean crop improvement as well the identification of regions for efficient marker-assisted introgression and candidate genes.

This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter, we lead the reader through several topics related to common bean germplasm, including crop dissemination across the Old World, landraces developed by farmers, characterization and safeguard of germplasm. These topics are attracting a great deal of attention, especially in recent years, when the international community has become increasingly aware of the relevance of safeguarding plant genetic resources. Early studies were mainly aimed at performing exploratory analyses of agro-morphological traits, with the goal of improving yield and pest resistance. Moreover, phaseolin variation was studied to check the distribution of the two common bean gene pools. The recent development of DNA-based markers has allowed significant improvement in knowledge on genetic variation within the European germplasm, as well as the capacity to trace its divergence from the American germplasm. The different strategies applied to safeguard the European germplasm are described together with their drawbacks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drought is a major constraint limiting dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) yield worldwide. Some lines express tolerance but the mechanisms are not well understood. We sought to: i) identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) conditioning drought tolerance in a bi-parental mapping population, ii) use selective phenotyping to characterize important phenotypic traits associated with drought tolerance, and iii) perform association mapping to discover novel QTL conditioning drought tolerance. We tested 140 RILs (Buster/Roza) for yield under multiple stress (MS) and terminal drought (DS). A genetic linkage map (953 cM) was generated using SNP markers. Two major QTL influencing seed yield (SY) were observed. The SY1.1 QTL explained up to 37% ( R2) of the phenotypic variance for seed yield under MS and was consistently expressed each year. The SY2.1 QTL was detected under DS (33%) and MS (23%). For extensive phenotyping, 40 lines from the original mapping population were evaluated for 19 traits. The phenotypic extremes helped to sort through traits relevant to stress response in the population and verified the effect of two major QTL for yield response under terminal drought. Of all traits examined, pod wall ratio (PW), biomass (BM) and greenness (NDVI) were most associated with SY under stress followed by phenology. Phenotypic extremes validated QTL discovered with whole RIL population and identified new QTL for PW1.2BR and NDVI 1.1BR on chromosome Pv01. A panel of 160 lines and cultivars from Durango race was tested under MS and DS for one year and genotyped with 5398 SNPs. The PW, BM, and phenology traits were all correlated with SY under DS. Association mapping revealed novel QTL for days to flowering (DF), plant height (PH), seed weight (SW), BM, PW, and SY under MS and DF, BM, SW, and geometric mean under DS. This study offers QTL influencing yield under multiple stress environments and identification of traits associated with drought tolerance.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warming is expected to lead to drier environments worldwide, especially in the tropics, and it is unclear how crops will react. Drought tolerance often varies at small spatial scales in natural ecosystems, where many of the wild relatives and landraces of the main crops have been collected. Through a series of examples, we will show that collections of wild relatives and landraces, many of those deposited at germplasm banks, may represent this desired source of variation, as they are genetically diverse and phenotypically variable. For instance, using a spectrum of genotyping and phenotyping approaches, we have studied the extent of genetic and phenotypic diversity for drought tolerance in wild and landraces of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and compared it with the one available at cultivated varieties. Not surprisingly, most of the naturally available variation to cope with drought in the natural environments was lost through domestication and recent plant breeding. It is therefore imperative to exploit the reservoir of wild relatives and landraces to make crops more tolerant. Yet, it remains to be seen if the rate at which this naturally available variation can be incorporated into the cultivated varieties may keep pace with the rate of climate change.
