Genetic progress resulting from forty-three years of breeding of the carioca common bean in Brazil

Abstract: ABSTRACT. We aimed to evaluate 40 common bean cultivars recommended by various Brazilian research institutions between 1970 and 2013 and estimate the genetic progress obtained for grain yield and other agronomic traits. Additionally, we proposed a bi-segmented nonlinear regression model to infer the year in which breeding began to show significant gains in Brazil. The experiment was carried out in Viçosa/MG and Coimbra/MG, in the dry and winter seasons of 2013. For this, a randomized complete block design with… Show more

“…In our study, the application of microsatellite markers as an auxiliary tool for estimating the genetic relationship of common bean genotypes and the genetic representativeness of parents to thus guide selection of divergent progenies in the sense of strengthening genetic gains in future cycles of the recurrent selection program proved to be useful. In addition to the diversity observed among the progenies, in general, it is in the interest of breeders to select genotypes that have the highest possible number of agronomic traits important for the crop (Elias et al, 2007;Barili et al, 2016). In this study, not only resistance to CBB, but also seed yield and commercial quality of seed are traits of greatest interest.…”

“…Breeding programs for common bean are important to increase crop yield and genetic gains in seed yield range from 0.5 to 6.7 % per year (Chiorato et al, 2010;Barili et al, 2016;Zeffa et al, 2020). Nevertheless, yield of cultivars is still below the potential of species (Beebe et al, 2013), especially because of biotic and abiotic factors that affect plant growth and development (Fahad et al, 2017).…”

“…The development of common bean cultivars contributed significantly to the increase in the mean national yield of 500 kg ha −1 (in the 1970s) [1] for more than 1331 kg ha −1 (in the 2018/2019 season) in the mean of three planting seasons (first crop or water (1504.50 kg ha −1 ), second crop or drought (1492 kg ha −1 ) and third crop or irrigated (996.5 kg ha −1 ), seeing current Black, Carioca and other grain color patterns of common beans cultivars [2]. The progress in grain yield, productivity components, grain technological quality and nutritional quality, is mostly attributed to genetic improvement [3,4]. Besides these, flowering time traits, for example, days to flowing (DTF) and days to first flower (DFF) presents importance in a breeding program of common bean.…”
