Determination of quality criteria and content of nutri̇ents by di̇fferent bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris L. ) of varieties and populations

This study was carried out at Menemen Research, Application and Production Farm and the Research and Application Center of the Horticulture Department of Ege University Faculty of Agriculture. Fifteen seeds for each of the pole beans and bush beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) obtained from different parts of the world and Turkey were used. A total of 60 beans were cultivated in 2 localities, 30 in each locality. Some phenological and morphological features and macro and micronutrient elements were determined for each genotype .The aim of this research is to determine the nutrient content of bean varieties and encourage the production and consumption of varieties that are rich in nutrients; on the other hand, if there is any problem related to nutrition, to give direction to the studies to be done in order to solve these problems.
