  1. Columns (1) and (2) report the relationship between the theoretic genebank contribution and genebank ancestry and market participation, respectively. Both models were estimated using a pseudo fixed effect panel estimator. Other controls include the age of the household head, educational level of the household head, household size, sex of the household head, soil characteristics, irrigation access, farm size, distance to extension agent, and walking distance to the village market. Eicker–Huber–White standard errors are in parentheses. ***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1. Full results are presented in the Additional file 1
