📌#SavetheDate | Virtual workshop: Developing a hybrid bean collection to advance climate-ready bean breeding. 📅 Tuesday, 1 March 2022 🕐13:00-17:15 (GMT) 👉More information: ow.ly/LEJl50I3Hcj

#dnatrail launch today at @CUBotanicGarden - why is wild cabbage so popular among scientists? And why are bananas in danger? 🤔 lots to discover @emblebi @BrunoContrerasM @wellcomegenome

Assessing leaves of Phaseolus bean for resistance to the web blight pathogen – part of NIAB’s Climate Ready Bean project with CIAT in Colombia. #PlantHealthWeek #IYPH2020

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum-infected phaseolus beans, part of resistance screens in our Climate Ready Bean project. Sclerotinia is a familiar UK WOSR disease, but has a wide host range causing serious losses in countries where beans are a major protein source niab.com/research/resea…

More from our staff in Colombia: Disease testing on Phaseolus accessions in one of the glasshouses at @BiovIntCIAT_eng. NIAB will be undertaking additional disease tests on hybrid bean populations in the near future, searching for new sources of improved resistance #hybridbeans

Some #NIAB staff are currently in Colombia, they've seen the fantastic new genebank building under construction @BiovIntCIAT_eng. It will home collections of cassava, Phaseolus bean and many forage species. For more info on on the project see: ow.ly/Mdat50ysgp3 #hybridbeans

Fantastic to see the #hybridbeans for our project being grown in CIAT's mesh houses @niabgroup @BiovIntCIAT_eng

Visiting the whitefly and cassava frogskin phenotyping experiments @CIAT_ with Luis Augusto Becerra, Adriana Bohorquez and Maria Isabel Gomez @NIABTAG #GCRF

Visiting @CIAT_ this week. Thanks @earanzalesr and Monica Velez for showing us how you are propagating cassava wild relatives from the in vitro collection as part of our @BBSRC #GCRF project @NIABTAG

Thanks @CIAT_ AGI (Hanoi) for the discussions about the #cassava #GCRF project @NIABTAG @sarahcdyer
