Kamfwa intends to develop a genetic marker system that can be widely used by bean breeders interested in developing weevil-resistant varieties. “Using bean plants directly to research weevil resistance can be complicated and time-consuming,” says Kamfwa.

Control was ineffective in beans containing later weevil instars at time of harvest. “Beans with larger seeds are preferred by consumers in several areas of Africa,” says Kamfwa. 0000011452 00000 n

Treating seeds with chemicals can be effective but is costly and may carry health risks. 0000004197 00000 n
Weevil-resistant bean varieties will allow farmers the flexibility to store seeds. 0000007930 00000 n
That’s important because earlier studies suggested a relationship between weevil resistance and seed size. This research was funded by USAID through the Legume Innovation Lab at Michigan State University. In some areas, farmers currently treat bean seeds with ash from cooking fires to control weevils. Most of the plants affected are peas, including Pisum fulvum and Pisum sativum. 0000166919 00000 n

“This will allow breeders in different countries to introduce weevil resistance into bean varieties adapted to local conditions,” says Kamfwa. 0000119556 00000 n
Annie Gaddis says. If left untreated, weevils caused visible damage of up to 40% of the beans during a 16-week storage period. They help replenish soil nitrogen levels. 0000014569 00000 n
A single introduction of the parasitoid D. basalis (five males and five females per kg bean seeds) in the first week following harvest resulted in weevil eradication on four farms with a low level of initial infestation.

They continue feeding inside the seeds until coming out as adults to infect more seeds. In some areas, farmers currently treat bean seeds with ash from cooking fires to control weevils. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jspr.2004.10.005. Reply . The common bean weevil can infest beans in the field or in storage. In this study, we distinguished between farms with low and high levels of infestation at the time of harvest. Finally, the researchers used statistical analyses to find genetic signals–called markers–that are more common in the DNA of bean plants resistant to weevils. To learn more about the genetics of weevil resistance in the common bean, Kamfwa and his colleagues used bean plants derived from an initial mating between a weevil-resistant and a weevil-susceptible variety of common bean. 0000002238 00000 n
Weevil infestations can spread rapidly and lead to significant losses of bean crops.
