“…The modes of action of different mutation causing agents are different (Laskar et al, 2019); hence wide variations can be observed in the resultant mutations induced in the crop population(s) exposed to different mutagens and their concentrations/doses. In general, chemical mutagens cause single base-pair (bp) changes or single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) while physical mutagens cause deletions or translocations in the exposed genome(s) (Sikora et al, 2011).In practice, multiple mutagens are used for inducing mutation(s) in target crop genotype(s) in a single experiment to amplify the scope of inducing wide range of desirable mutation(s).…”

“…In this study, six lines (1, 8, 19, 20, 27, and 28) showed hypogeal germination, while four lines (3, 4, 6, and 7) exhibited the epigeal type of germination, which is typical of P. vulgaris [ 4 ] ( Table 1 ). The hypogeal germination is an adaptation of the species, and it facilitates avoiding cold environments at an early stage of growth [ 25 ]. Three botanical varieties of P. coccineus have been described according to the color of the flowers [ 5 ].…”

The runner bean is the third most economically important Phaseolus species, which is cultivated on small-scale agriculture for the production of immature pods or to obtain dry seeds. However, despite the economic importance and agronomic potential of this species, the runner bean has been little studied from the genetic standpoint. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to characterize ten selected lines of runner bean obtained from Central (Santiago) and Southern (Valdivia and Villarica) Chile based on morphological and agronomic traits. In addition, the genetic variability of these lines was determined using 12 Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers to evaluate the potential of this germplasm for breeding and commercial purposes. As a result, the lines from Central Chile were characterized, and had a higher number of pods per plant compared to the Southern lines, although the size and weight of their seeds were lower. Moreover, a low level of genetic diversity (He = 0.251) was encountered in this population. Finally, this is one of the first studies that generate relevant and novel information on the morphological, agronomic and genetic characterization of the P. coccineus germplasm present in Chile.
