Volatile Compounds of Dry Bean Seed {phaseolus Vulgaris L.)

Volatile compounds of uncooked dry bean {Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars representing 3 market classes (black, dark red kidney and pinto) grown in 2005 were isolated with headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME), and analyzed with gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GCMS). A total of 62 volatiles consisting of aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes, alkanes, alcohols and ketones represented...

Transgene elimination in genetically modified dry bean and soybean lines.

Transgene elimination is a poorly studied phenomenon in plants. We made genetic and molecular studies of a transgenic dry bean line immune to bean golden mosaic geminivirus and a soybean line. In both lines, the transgenes were stable during the vegetative phase but were eliminated during meiosis. Due to its potential biotechnological value, this transgenic line was micropropagated by grafting ...

Selection for Drought Tolerance in Dry Bean Derived from the Mesoamerican Gene Pool in Western Nebraska

Dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is highly susceptible to drought stress, and drought affects 60% of global bean production. We evaluated elite exotic dry bean germplasm derived from the Mesoamerican gene pool for drought tolerance, yield, and adaptation to western Nebraska during 2006 and 2007 at three research sites. Seven tropical lines were evaluated with two great northern cultivars (Matte...
