Major loci controlling resistance to the angular leaf spot of common bean.

Based on the evidences presented in this paper, results from classical genetic studies, fine-mapping information and physical position analysis using the reference genome sequence of P. vulgaris, the BIC Genetic Committee has formally accepted the proposed new gene symbols.

Phenotypic and molecular characterization of common bean genotypes for resistance to anthracnose.

This study aimed to perform phenotypic and molecular characterization of cultivars and breeding lines of common bean for resistance to anthracnose.

Cooking time of common bean: genetic parameters and selection of elite lines.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the genetic variability and select elite lines for CT, since these lines aggregate essential agronomic traits.

Identification of common bean resistant sources to angular leaf spot disease in a brazilian germplasm collection.

The aim of this study was to identify sources of resistance in the germplasm collection providing information of potential sources of resistance to introduce in breeding programs.

Reaction of common bean lines to Pseudocercospora griseola in different enviromental conditions.

This study aimed to compare the reaction of common bean lines to Pseudocercospora griseola in different enviromental conditions.

Growth analysis of early genotypes of common beans.

The aim of this study was to characterize the agronomic performance of three elite genotypes of common bean with early cycle by growth analysis technique.

Growth, nutrient accumulation in leaves and grain yield of super early genotypes of common bean.

There is a lack of researches that evaluate the development and nutrient accumulation in super early genotypes of common bean for the elaboration of fertilization programs. This study aimed at characterizing the development; N, P, K, Ca and Mg accumulation by leaves; grain yield; and yield components of super early genotypes of common bean. Field experiments were conducted in a randomized blocks design, with four replications. The treatments consisted of the IPR Colibri (control), CNFC 15873, CNFC 15874 and CNFC 15875 genotypes. Plants were sampled throughout the common bean development, being divided into leaves, stems and pods. After determining the dry matter, the contents of N, P, K, Ca and Mg accumulated in leaves were estimated. At harvesting, the grain yield and yield components were evaluated. The biomass accumulation in stems and leaves occurred until the flowering stage, and then it started in the pods until harvesting. The genotypes that absorbed more nitrogen and phosphorus had a higher grain yield. The average growing season of super early genotypes was 70 days (winter) and 63 days (summer). CNFC 15874 was the most productive genotype in the winter, with grain yield similar to the IPR Colibri cultivar (control). In the summer, CNFC 15873 and CNFC 15875 achieved grain yield similar to the IPR Colibri cultivar.
