Adaptive gene loss in the common bean pan-genome during range expansion and domestication.

The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a crucial legume crop and an ideal evolutionary model to study adaptive diversity in wild and domesticated populations. Here, we present a common bean pan-genome based on five high-quality genomes and whole-genome reads representing 339 genotypes.

Fatty Acids in Dry Beans ( L.): A Contribution to Their Analysis and the Characterization of a Diversity Panel.

Dry bean ( L.) is a crop of high nutritional interest widespread throughout the world. This research had two objectives.

Phenolic Content and Antioxidant Activity in Seeds of Common Bean ( L.).

Dry bean ( L.) is one of the most important pulses consumed in the world. Total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, total monomeric anthocyanin content and antioxidant capacity were determined, using ferric reducing antioxidant power and free radical scavenging activity, in 255 lines grown under the same environmental conditions.

Characterization of extractable phenolic profile of common bean seeds (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in a Spanish diversity panel.

Phenolic compounds are important bioactive compounds in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The aim of this work was the characterization of extractable phenolic profile (corresponding to 12 hydroxycinnamic acids and derivatives, 13 anthocyanins and 15 flavonols) in a bean diversity panel constituted by 220 lines, all grown under the same environmental conditions.
