Raw or undercooked beans contain the toxin [[phytohaemagglutinin]]. Its [[leaf]] is also occasionally used as a [[Leaf vegetable|vegetable]] and the [[straw]] as [[fodder]]. Its [[Plant taxonomy|botanical classification]], along with other ''[[Phaseolus]]'' species, is as a member of the [[legume]] [[Family (biology)|family]] ''[[Fabaceae]]'', most of whose members acquire the [[nitrogen]] they require through an association with [[rhizobia]], a species of [[Nitrogen fixation|nitrogen-fixing]] [[bacteria]].

The common bean is a highly variable species that has a long history of cultivation. All wild members of the species have a climbing habit,<ref name="P&R">{{cite book |author1=Phillips, R. |author2=Rix, M. |year=1993 |title=Vegetables |publisher=Random House |location=New York |url=https://books.google.com/books/about/Vegetables.html?id=DKVFAAAAYAAJ |isbn=9780679750246}}</ref> but many [[cultivar]]s are classified as "bush beans" or "pole beans", depending on their style of growth. These include the [[kidney bean]], the [[navy bean]], the [[pinto bean]], and the wax bean.<ref name="GRIN"/> The other major types of commercially grown bean are the runner bean (''[[Phaseolus coccineus]]'') and the [[broad bean]] (''Vicia faba'').
