Raatz, Bodo; Beebe, Stephen, 2020, "Replication Data for: Bean experimental lines selected for tolerance to Drought, high temperatures, low P in the soil, high aluminum in the soil and high content of Fe / Zn in grain.", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/CDBHQW, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:NHJciOBk9XK3behaGOqAJw== [fileUNF]
Bean experimental lines selected for tolerance to Drought, high temperatures, low P in the soil, high aluminum in the soil and high content of Fe / Zn in grain. These lines will be sent to collaborators in Central America and Africa to be evaluated under their local conditions. Yield in Kg / Ha and Fe / Zn content in mg / Kg were evaluated. |
