Abstract

Common bean is a staple food and the major source of iron and zinc for human consumption. Bean iron and zinc concentration is high and can be further increased by bio-fortification. Common bean also needs to be improved for biochemical traits viz., soluble protein, starch, sugar, phenol content etc. Breeding is guided by principles of market-driven approaches to develop client-demanded varieties. Through gender-responsive participatory variety selection, market- demanded varieties needs to be released. These new approaches will be key component of sustainable food systems in the world.
