| Abstract: | The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most consumed legume in the world. In Portugal, the geographic isolation of the region surrounded by the mountainous barrier of Peneda-Gerês, Barroso and Marão is thought to have the safeguard of a large number of adapted bean populations. In order to assess the value of this germplasm to breeding programs, a study of 20 Portuguese landraces collected in this Northern region were evaluated for agronomical (days to flowering, plant height, days to harvest, weight of seeds per plant and 100 seeds weight), chemical (crude protein) and genetic diversity (microsatellite DNA). |
