Seleção de linhagens de feijão rosinha de boa cocção, resistentes à antracnose e mancha angular

Abstract

Common bean cultivars with pink grain type used to be very important, although there is still some market spot for them. The objective of the research was to select common bean lines with pink grain, high grain yield with good cooking ability, and resistance to anthracnose and angular leaf spot. One hundred and forty three lines were selected from five F8 segregant families derived from the cross Rosinha Maria da Fé x ESAL 693. Those lines were evaluated in the rainy season of 2005/2006 at Lavras county, MG State. Ninety nine lines were kept and tested in the dry season of 2006 at Lavras and Lambari. The 24 selected lines were again evaluated in the same last sites in the winter/spring of 2006. Traits recorded included grain yield, grain type, cooking time, angular leaf spot reaction, and resistance test against the pathotype 65 of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum. The lines were genetically different for all traits as confirmed by the high estimates of heritability, assuring high selection gains. Four lines were selected with high grain yield and ideal pink type plus good cooking ability and resistance to anthracnose and angular leaf spot.
