Variation in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) was investigated by sequencing intron 1 of the dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR) gene for 92 genotypes that represent both landraces and cultivars. We were also interested in determining if introns provide sufficient variation for genetic diversity studies and if the sequence data could be used to develop allele-specific primers that could differentiate genotypes using a standard PCR assay. Sixty-nine polymorphic sites were observed. Nucleotide variation (π/bp) was 0.0481, a value higher than that reported for introns from other plant species. Tests for significant deviation from the mutation drift model were positive for the population as a whole, the cultivar and landrace subsets, and the Middle American landrace set. Significant linkage disequilibrium extended about 300 nucleotides. Twenty haplotypes were detected among the cultivated genotypes. Seven recombination events were detected for the whole population, and six events for the landraces. Recombination was not observed among the landraces within either the Middle American or Andean gene pools. Evidence for hybridization between the two gene pools was discovered. Five allele-specific primers were developed that could distinguish 56 additional genotypes. The allele-specific primers were used to map duplicate DFR genes on linkage group B8.Key words: Phaseolus vulgaris, intron, diversity, evolution.

Multilocus sequence data collected from domesticated and related wild relatives provides a rich source of information on the effect of human selection on the diversity and adaptability of a species to complex environments. To evaluate the domestication history of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), multilocus sequence data from landraces representing the various races within the Middle American (MA) and Andean gene pools was evaluated. Across 13 loci, nucleotide diversity was similar between landraces and wild germplasm in both gene pools. The diversity data were evaluated using the approximate Bayesian computation approach to test multiple domestication models and estimate population demographic parameters. A model with a single domestication event coupled with bidirectional migration between wild and domesticated genotypes fitted the data better than models consisting of two or three domestication events in each genepool. The effective bottleneck population size was ~50% of the base population in each genepool. The bottleneck began ~8200 and ~8500 years before present and ended at ~6300 and ~7000 years before present in MA and Andean gene pools respectively. Linkage disequilibrium decayed to a greater extent in the MA genepool. Given the (1) geographical adaptation bottleneck in each wild gene pool, (2) a subsequent domestication bottleneck within each gene pool, (3) differentiation into gene-pool specific races and (4) variable extents of linkage disequilibrium, association mapping experiments for common bean would more appropriately be performed within each genepool.

Eighty-five wild and cultivated accessions of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), representing a wide geographic area in the centres of domestication were tested for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). Genomic DNA was digested with one of three restriction enzymes (EcoRI, EcoRV, and HindIII) and hybridized to 12 probes distributed throughout the common bean genome. Accessions could be classified into two major groups with a distinct geographical distribution in Middle America and the Andes. Within each gene pool, cultivated accessions clustered together with wild forms from the same geographical area supporting the multiple domestications hypothesis for this crop. Estimates of Nei's genetic distances among the cultivated races from the two different gene pools varied from 0.12 to 0.56 and among races from the same gene pool from 0.04 to 0.12, suggesting that the divergence in Phaseolus vulgaris has reached the subspecies level. The level of genetic diversity (Ht = 0.38) was twice the value obtained with isozyme analysis. Genetic diversity within races (Hs = 0.27) was four to five times higher compared with isozymes, but genetic diversity between races (Dst = 0.11) was similar for both categories of markers. These results corroborate previous studies on the characterization of genetic diversity in common bean that clearly showed two distinct gene pools, Middle American and Andean. Moreover, RFLP markers are superior to isozymes because they provide better coverage of the genome and reveal higher level of polymorphisms.Key words: common bean, restriction fragment length polymorphism, domestication, genetic diversity.

Population subdivision of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, the causal agent of anthracnose, was studied in three regions located in three centers of diversity of its host, Phaseolus vulgaris. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, restriction endonuclease analysis of the amplified ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region, and virulence on a set of 12 cultivars were used to assess the genetic diversity of C. lindemuthianum strains isolated in Mexican, Ecuadorian, and Argentinean wild common bean populations. The three regions were significantly differentiated for molecular markers. For these markers, Mexico was the most polymorphic and the most distant from Ecuador and Argentina. The majority of the RAPD alleles present in Ecuador and Argentina were found in Mexico, suggesting that Andean populations have been derived from the Mesoamerican center. Pathogenicity tests on a set of 12 cultivars showed that all but one of the Mexican strains were virulent exclusively on Mesoamerican cultivars. Argentinean strains were virulent preferentially on southern Andes cultivars, and the Ecuadorian strains, except for one strain, were avirulent on all cultivars. These results suggest an adaptation of strains on cultivars of the same geographic origin. Thus, based on molecular and virulence markers, C. lindemuthianum strains isolated from wild common bean populations were divided into three groups corresponding to host gene pools.

Two 24-mer SCAR primers (SW13) were developed from a previously identified 10-mer RAPD primer (OW13690) linked to the I gene, which conditions resistance to bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) in common bean. Linkage between SW13 and the I gene was tested in three F2 populations segregating for both SW13 and the I gene: N84004/Michelite (1.0 ± 0.7 cM), Seafarer/UI-114 (1.3 ± 0.8 cM), and G91201/Alpine (5.0 ± 2.2 cM). SW13 proved to be more specific and reproducible than the OW13690 RAPD marker. Using different heat-stable DNA polymerases, SW13 amplified a single 690-bp fragment linked to the I gene that more consistently permitted the identification of resistant plants. In addition, the presence of the I gene was detected using SW13 in genotypes originating from different gene pools of Phaseolus vulgaris L., indicating a broad utility of this marker for bean breeding programs. Key words : Phaseolus vulgaris, SCAR, RAPD, BCMV.

Selection for seed yield (visual in the F2, visual and plot yield from the F3 to F5, and yield tests in F6) was carried out in two crosses of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in high and low soil fertility environments at CIAT-Quilichao, Colombia. Parents were small-seeded and tolerant to low soil phosphorus, possessed indeterminate bush growth habit, and belonged to lowland tropical gene pools of Middle America. The mean yield of selected lines from low (LFS) and high (HFS) soil fertility environments was significantly higher than the mean of the parents in both crosses when tested in high fertility (HF) but not in low fertility (LF). The highest yielding LFS and HFS lines from A 286 × (G 5059 × A 80) and the LFS line from A 286 × ICA Pijao outyielded the best check cultivar, Carioca, in HF. No line yielded significantly more than A 286, the best parent used in both crosses. The mean effect of fertilizer levels on selection for seed yield was nonsignificant. Lines selected under two environments showed similar but average response and high stability of performance under variable environments. Low soil fertility accelerated maturity and reduced 100-seed weight and seed yield.Key words: Phaseolus vulgaris, bean (small-seeded common), selection for yield, soil fertility, Middle American gene pools, regression coefficient

Sequence data for 2 non-coding regions of the chalcone isomerase gene were analyzed to study the genetic architecture of common bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris L.). One region corresponded to the first 596 nucleotides (nt) of the 5′-untranslated region (UTR). The other region was the 710 nt intron 3. Data were collected from 67 genotypes representing both landraces and cultivars from the geographical range of the cultivated form of the species. Variability in the 5′-UTR region was represented by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), whereas intron 3 variation was due to a collection of SNPs and insertion–deletion events. Diversity was greater in the 5′-UTR (π = 0.0175) than in intron 3 (π = 0.0089). For each region, diversity was greater for genotypes of Middle American than Andean origin. A single recombination event was observed, and the hybridization pattern necessary to derive the recombinant genotypes supported the previous observation of an ancestral gene pool from which modern domesticated genotypes are derived. For both regions, a strongly supported Andean group was observed, whereas the presence of 2 Middle American subgroups was also supported. Although a significantly positive Tajima’s D statistic was observed for the 5′-UTR for all genotypes, we conclude that this is more likely the result of a strong demographic effect and that balancing selection is occurring only among the Middle American genotypes.
