520 _aThe unrestricted international flow of genetic resources from international gene bank collections is perhaps one of the greatest impacts of international agricultural research. This paper examines the distribution of benefits from bean genetic resources across countries in Latin America. The genealogy of commercial bean cultivars released since 1976 was analyzed. This enabled the source of commercially grown genetic resources to be calculated for each country. All countries were shown to be heavily dependent on imported genetic resources for their commercial cultivars. Information on the economic impact of improved bean varieties enables the share of economic productivity benefits associated with imported germplasm to be calculated by country of origin. The benefits received by each country from improved bean germplasm are compared with the contribution of that country's germplasm to other countries. Patterns in the flow and use of genetic resources and associated benefits are analyzed.
