“…These values are higher than those previously reported in Burundi (Barampama & Simard, 1993), but lower than the values observed in genotypes in Colombia and Brazil (Mesquita et al, 2007). These differences may be related to genetic and environmental variability, to genotype-environment interactions, and to the soil type or fertilization use.…”

“…Epistatic effects may impact the K content phenotype and make genetic selection of genotypes of a higher nutritional quality even more difficult. Epistatic variance relates to the interaction environment and genotype x environment interaction affect mineral accumulations in common bean seed (Barampama & Simard, 1993 Additive variance is an important parameter for improving autogamous plants because it does not segregate from generation to generation, which makes it possible to successfully select for specific traits in segregating populations (Carvalho et al, 2001). …”

“…In Colombia, the maximum K content, observed in 119 accessions of wild common bean seeds, was 20.05 g kg -1 dry matter (DM), while K content at 21.25 g kg -1 DM was the largest value observed in 1,031 cultivated accessions . In Burundi, K values ranging from 4.42 to 6.31 g kg -1 DM were observed among four common bean cultivars (Barampama & Simard, 1993).…”

“…Several studies have shown that both genetics and the environment influence K content of bean seeds (Barampama & Simard, 1993;Moraghan & Grafton, 2001). Therefore, a larger number of environments must be evaluated to select genotypes with higher nutritional content.…”

-The objective of this work was to investigate possible maternal effects on potassium content of common bean seeds, as well as to estimate the heritability and selection gains in early hybrid generations for this character and to evaluate the efficiency of genetic selection to improve the nutritional quality of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). Crosses with four cultivars from the Mesoamerican gene pool yielded the reciprocal F 1 and F 2 generations and the backcrossed populations (BCP 1 and BCP 2 ). The potassium content of the progenies was measured via nitric-perchloric digestion and flame photometry. The potassium content in the tested progenies varied from 6.0 to 14.9 g kg -1 dry matter, and no significant maternal effect was observed. The narrow-sense heritability ranged from low (33.26%) to intermediate (43.05%). Partial dominance was observed for low potassium content in the seeds. No increase in potassium content was obtained through selection. Breeding common bean plants for increasing potassium content in seeds may be difficult because the local environment strongly influences the character.Index terms: Phaseolus vulgaris, heritability, maternal effect, nutritional quality, selection gain. Controle genético do teor de potássio em sementes de feijãoResumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar um possível efeito materno no teor de potássio em sementes de feijão-comum (Phaseolus vulgaris), além de estimar a herdabilidade e o ganho na seleção em gerações precoces quanto a esse caráter e avaliar a eficiência da seleção em aumentar a qualidade nutricional do feijão. Cruzamentos entre quatro cultivares do grupo gênico Mesoamericano produziram as gerações F 1 e F 2 recíprocas e os retrocruzamentos (RCP 1 e RCP 2 ). O teor de potássio das progênies foi medido por digestão nítrico-perclórica e uso de fotometria de chama. O teor de potássio nas progênies testadas variou de 6,0 a 14,9 g kg -1 de matéria seca, e nenhum efeito materno significativo foi observado. A herdabilidade em sentido restrito variou de baixa (33,26%) à intermediária (43,05%). Foi observada dominância parcial quanto ao baixo teor de potássio nas sementes. Nenhum aumento no teor de potássio foi obtido por meio de seleção. O melhoramento para aumentar o teor de potássio em sementes de feijão-comum pode apresentar dificuldades, porque o efeito de ambiente influencia fortemente o caráter.Termos para a indexação: Phaseolus vulgaris, herdabilidade, efeito materno, qualidade nutricional, ganho na seleção.

“…Accessions with the range of variation from 3.60 to 6.55 g kg -1 dry matter (DM) were tested in Burundi (Barampama and Simard 1993) and from 5.86 to 8.84 g kg -1 DM in Colombia (House et al 2002). In Brazil, values ranging from 4.50 to 7.30 g kg -1 DM were observed among 21 common bean genotypes in the Middle American gene pool (Mesquita et al 2007).…”
