“…Seed weight was the trait that showed the greatest estimate of heritability (h 2 , 91.4%) in the present study. This was expected, as the literature is full of studies that have reported such observations for common bean [54][55][56]. This outcome is also consistent with what has been shown for other legume crops, such as chickpea [57,58], lentil [59], faba bean [60], soybean [61] and pea [62].…”

Food legumes are at the crossroads of many societal challenges that involve agriculture, such as climate change and food sustainability and security. In this context, pulses have a crucial role in the development of plant-based diets, as they represent a very good source of nutritional components and improve soil fertility, such as by nitrogen fixation through symbiosis with rhizobia. The main contribution to promotion of food legumes in agroecosystems will come from plant breeding, which is guaranteed by the availability of well-characterized genetic resources. Here, we analyze seeds of 25 American and European common bean purified accessions (i.e., lines of single seed descent) for different morphological and compositional quality traits. Significant differences among the accessions and superior genotypes for important nutritional traits are identified, with some lines showing extreme values for more than one trait. Heritability estimates indicate the importance of considering the effects of environmental growth conditions on seed compositional traits. They suggest the need for more phenotypic characterization in different environments over different years to better characterize combined effects of environment and genotype on nutritional trait variations. Finally, adaptation following the introduction and spread of common bean in Europe seems to have affected its nutritional profile. This finding further suggests the relevance of evolutionary studies to guide breeders in the choice of plant genetic resources.

“…A set of characteristics are evaluated for defining a variety rather than a single parameter which could help selecting adapted variety. The number of pods per plant is one of the major yield components that determine productive potentials of the common beans and it could be influenced by nutrient availability and the ability of bean varieties to pick up nutrients from the soil, which in turn stimulate the plants to produce pods [24,25].…”

The availability of beans at a relatively cheaper price compared to meat and other protein sources cater for the protein requirements of people with low purchasing power. This study was carried out on three climbing beans varieties PNN, DOR 701 and MCX to evaluate growth, yield and disease prevalence across two growing seasons. The design of the experiment was complete randomized block design with the three replicates, 15 plants were randomly selected and tagged from each variety per plot for data collection on growth, yield, diseased incidence and severity. The results showed that irrespective of the planting season, all the growth parameters of the climbers, with the exception of the number of leaves per plant, varied significantly (P = 0.05) with beans variety. The highest plant height (171.6 cm), number of grains per pod was highest (8), the highest pod length (13.3 cm) and the least mean number of branches per plant (4) was recorded with the variety PNN. All yield and yield components were found to vary significantly (P = 0.05) with the bean varieties. The highest yield (3.0 Mg/ha) was recorded by MCX. Disease incidence and severity did not vary significantly (P = 0.05) across varieties. Disease incidence and severity were significantly higher in the early planting season (91.7% and 37.7% respectively) than in the late planting season (69.4% and 16.7% respectively). Cultivation of beans should be done in the late planting season, using MCX variety with high yield.

“…In common bean, it was determined that high values of BSH, ranging from 0.55 to 0.91 for seven phenological and morphological traits [25]. In other previous studies, it was pointed out the results showed that the BSH values for yield and the yield components ranged from 0.115 to 0.642 higher than BSH for a number of days until flowering [26].…”

Legume species have various applications in organism’s nutrition, medical, and conversion industries because of their high oil, high protein, and high value materials. These crops can prevent soil erosion and increase soil nitrogen for further crop cultivation by bacteria symbiosis as well. Concerning the benefits of these crops, there is a need for more breeding attempts to gain genetic achievements. Accelerated higher genetic gains are required to meet the demand of ever-increasing global population. In recent years, speedy developments have been witnessed in legume genomics due to advancements in next-generation sequencing (NGS) and high-throughput genotyping technologies. A fundamental change in current conventional breeding programs, combined with modern techniques, is of great importance. Thus, a combination of modern and conventional breeding techniques may conduct our goals to reach great achievement on legume breeding regarding industrial and medical uses, human and livestock nutrition faster.
