Correspondence and material for the faba bean data list including variety, parent/origin, original breeder, year and country and their research into Tannin free faba beans and seed coat colour.

Discussing their own research growing faba beans at home; the 'tendril mutant sibs' and 'independent vascular system' plants (2002). A translation of the J Picard paper 'Annales de l'Amélioration des Plantes' (1976) as 'An account of the inheritance of the absence of tannin character, in the seeds of the field bean (Vicia faba L)' translated by G R A Croften, Dr D A Bond and Dr G Duc.

Letter to Gérad Duc about paper 'Two genes for White Flower' (2003) and collecting information for a data base of the breeding/parentage of faba bean varieties.
