Kidney, black, navy or pinto? These are some of the common #beans we eat.
But #DYK there are more than 50,000 different bean varieties? 🌱
Next time you cook your favorite recipe featuring beans, why not try a new one?

"There are thousands of varieties of common bean but very few are produced for everyday consumption. However, this number of varieties contains an important source of genetic diversity." @katdenjam

In a new blog, #PhDstudent Kate writes about her trip to Colombia, working with growers and researchers at @BiovIntCIAT_eng, to gain local knowledge into genetic diversity in common bean crops - crucial to #foodsecurity.

I'm delighted to be part of this exciting project, congratulations @pauledwardrose and all fellow contributors! My chapter on population genomics is freely downloadable with my sincere thanks to @EarlhamInst for financing & supporting open access science.
Still a few places available on my data exploration with Python course:

A loaf of bread illustrates the work @EarlhamInst by Josh Colmer, using the TraitSeq technology to find novel traits for crop breeding, especially wheat. #REAP2022
Only by safeguarding crop diversity and making it available for use by researchers, plant breeders and farmers can we adapt agriculture to the climate crisis, reduce environmental degradation and improve livelihoods.
