Enhancing In-crop Diversity in Common Bean by Planting Cultivar Mixtures and Its Effect on Productivity
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most important food legume crop worldwide. Canadian beans, especially large seeded cultivars of Andean origin, have relatively narrow genetic diversities. Establishing crops with mixtures of cultivars instead of pure lines is a simple, cost effective way to...
