Systematic review shows genetic diversity and molecular markers affect bruchid resistance in common bean, highlighting breeding strategies.

This review aims to examine genetic mechanisms and breeding implications for bruchid resistance in common bean.
Systematic review following PRISMA guidelines
Search of 10 databases for peer-reviewed and gray literature
Evaluation of cultivars, landraces, wild derivatives, or interspecific lines
Identified resistance loci at the APA locus on chromosome Pv04
Resistance factors include arcelins, phytohemagglutinin, and α-amylase inhibitors
Additional loci on Pv03 and Pv07 contribute non-APA resistance

Chikasha et al. (2026) studied this question.
