Effects of maturity and seed size on seed vigor and plant growth in snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
… and subsequent plant growth of four cultivars of snap bean (Topcrop, Provider Black, Provider White, and Cherokee Wax). Seeds harvested between physiological maturity (PM) and harvest maturity (HM) showed the highest seed vigor and storability. At PM, seed moisture content was about 55%. A drop in …

Host-Parasite Interactions of the Soybean Cyst Nematode and Snap Beans Compared to Soybeans (Phaseolus Vulgaris, Heterodera Glycines, Max, Resistance, Temperature)
Soybean cyst nematode (SCN), (Heterodera glycines), a devastating parasite of soybean (Glycine max), was recently reported as damaging snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) in an Illinois commercial snap bean field. Because little information concerning the host-parasite relations of snap bean and SCN …

Cultivar, row spacing, and soil moisture effects on snap bean yield and morphological response to TIBA applications at early bloom
… (TIBA) at 1, 2, 4, 5 and 12 g/ha to field-grown snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) at early bloom caused a reduction in plant height and width but not dry weight. Yield differences occurred with the cultural variables of cultivar ('Sprite' and 'Dark-Seeded Provider') and row spacing (single and …

Interaction Between Weeds and Insect Pests With Snap Beans (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.)
… large crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis L.) and bean leaf beetle or potato leafhopper in snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cv ""Matador"". The main treatment was emergence time of either redroot pigweed or large crabgrass relative to snap beans' planting time. Subplot treatments were pigweed or …

Bean Leaf Beetle: Impact of Leaf Feeding Injury on Snap Beans, Host Plant Choice and Role as a Vector of Bean Pod Mottle Virus in Virginia
The bean leaf beetle (BLB), Cerotoma trifurcata (Forster) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), is a pest of commercially produced legumes in eastern Virginia. Field cage and manual-defoliation studies were conducted in Virginia to determine an economic impact of BLB. In the manual-defoliation study, snap …

Combining Common Bean Rust Resistance And Heat Tolerance In Snap Beans (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.) For Eastern Africa
Common bean rust caused by Uromyces appendiculatus (Per.:Pers) Unger, and heat stress limit snap bean production in many tropical and temperate regions. Snap beans that combined broad-spectrum rust resistance with heat tolerance in the same genetic backgrounds were developed and selected for …
