Determination of agro-morphologic properties and yield component of local pinto bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. pinto) genotypes growtn in Aegean and Marmara regions

This research was carried out to determinate agro-morphological properties of the local pinto bean genotypes collected from Aegean and Marmara Regions of Turkey. In the experiment a total 25 local pinto bean genotypes and 4 cultivars were examined in terms of 39 agromorphological traits and yield components. Result revealed that significant significant variability was assessed among the genotypes and some genotypes showed close values for yield and yield components. The identification of genotypes that can compete with commercial varieties in terms of different characteristics will be allowed to participate some genotypes in breeding programs for the development of new cultivars.
