“…Advances in plant breeding and phenotyping have been used for elucidating physiological mechanisms related to the description of developmental stages, dry matter dynamics per organ, source-sink relationships and growth models [21,22], which are of great utility for the selection of parents with traits of interest [15] in favor of improving the response of common bean to stress conditions [14,17]. One of the most important breeding traits for genetic enhancement is biofortification, which seeks to biologically increase Fe and zinc (Zn) concentration in the grain [23][24][25], whose average reported value is 55 and 28 mg kg -1 , respectively, with extremes of 102 and 54 mg kg -1 [26]. One of the possible -however still not identified -causes of these low micronutrient contents are likely related to soil fertility, which significantly affects the accumulation of these two elements (Fe and Zn) in the grain [27].…”
