description Actual accomplishments and future plans of the CIAT Bean Program during the period 1986-90 are described. The major cropping systems studied include bush beans in monoculture; bush, semiclimbing, and climbing beans in relay systems with maize; bush beans in association with maize; and climbing beans in association with maize. The main constraints to increased production are related with diseases, pests, physiological problems, and soils. General strategies for the achievement of the bean program's goals are discussed; they are based on the genetic improvement of germplasm and the training of national program scientists to develop collaborative research networks. Staffing needs and the kind of research required are given on each of the following areas: plant breeding, pathology, physiology, virology, entomology, economics, cropping systems agronomy, agronomy/soil science, international trials, soil microbiology, and program leader. Furthermore, regional staffing requirements and the justification of such positions are given for Central America and the Caribbean, Brazil and the Southern Cone, Eastern and Southern Africa, and West Asia-North Africa. Emphasis is given to bilateral arrangements and the development of collaborative research with basic research institutions. (CIAT)

(CIAT) Se describen los progresos alcanzados hasta el momento y planes futuros del Programa de Frijol del CIAT en el periodo 1986-90. Los principales sistemas de cultivo de frijol estudiados incluyen frijol arbustivo en monocultivo; frijol arbustivo, semitrepador y trepador en relevo con maiz; frijol arbustivo en asociacion con maiz; y frijol trepador en asociacion con maiz. Los principales problemas que limitan la produccion de frijol se relacionan con enfermedades, plagas, factores fisiologicos y suelos. Se discuten las estrategias generales para cumplir los objetivos del programa, las cuales se basan en el mejoramiento genetico de germoplasma y la capacitacion de cientificos de programas nacionales para el desarrollo de redes colaborativas de investigacion. Se indican las necesidades de personal cientifico para el programa y el tipo de trabajo de investigacion requerido en cada una de las siguientes areas: fitomejoramiento, patologia, fisiologia, virologia, entomologia, economia, agronomia de sistemas de cultivo, agronomia/edafologia, ensayos internacionales, microbiologia de suelos y liderazgo del programa. Ademas, se indican las necesidades de personal cientifico a nivel regional y la justificacion de dichas posiciones en America Central y el Caribe, Brasil y el Cono Sur, Africa Oriental, del Sur y la region de los Grandes Lagos; y Asia Occidental-Africa del Norte. Se enfatiza la continuacion de acuerdos bilaterales y el desarrollo de investigacion colaborativa con instituciones de investigacion basica.
