In a series of 14 tests, seedlings of 60 cultivars of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) were assessed for growth rate at a suboptimal temperature of 10 C. Seedlings were grown in a growth cabinet, and the leaf area growth rate (LAGR) was determined from measurements of the primary leaf before and after treatment. LAGR differed significantly between selected low temperature-tolerant cultivars of similar seed weight. However, for all varieties tested, LAGR and seed weight were significantly correlated. It was concluded that several of the bean accessions such as P.I. 136701 and the cv. Limelight possessed a high degree of tolerance to suboptimal temperatures during early leaf growth and that this character could be used effectively in a breeding program.

SUMMARYThree successive generations (parents, F1, F2) and backcrosses of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) hybrid between the cultivars Swedish Brown and Seafarer were used in this study.The investigation has concentrated on assessing the relationship between the seed weight per plant and the protein percentage of the seed. Protein percentage showed a higher estimated heritability and a greater stability over environments than seed weight.Partial dominance for low percentage protein and low seed weight was noted. Negative and low regression coefficients between these two characters was also observed.SDS-gel electrophoresis was used to examine the variation in banding patterns of total seed polypeptides and their stability over environments.

The results obtained in pot and field experiments have shown that <i>Helminthosporium sorokinianum</i> is able to infect bean plants. The cotyledons and roots of shoots during the first three weeks of growth are attacked the most frequently. Dark brown spots occur on the above-mentined organs. The infection of roots and cotyledonsof shoots is responsible for gangrene both before and after germination. Infected plants which remain alive only show symptoms of infection in the root system. The infection of roots by <i>H. sorokinianum</i> in older plants is detromental to growth and causes a decrease in the vield obtained from bean plants.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of nitrogen fixing inoculum associated with Co + Mo leaf spray on the common bean grain yield and grain nutrients, cv. FT Nobre. Three dosages of the inoculant (0, 200 and 400 g/50 kg seeds), combined with four Co + Mo leaf spray levels (T0=0,0; T1=4.9,49; T2=7.3,73; and T3=9.7,97 g ha-1 of Co and Mo, respectively) were tested. The grain yield with the use of the inoculant (400 g / 5O kg seed-1) associated with the higher level of Co+Mo (T2 and T3) was very similar to the mineral nitrogen condition fertilizer recommended for the bean (70 kg ha-1 of N). With the increased inoculant dosage, an increase of the protein content and of P and Mg in the grain was also observed. The results indicated that the mineral nitrogen source could be replaced by inoculation of the seeds with Rhizobium tropici combined with Co + Mo leaf spray.
