Bean breeding in Uganda

The history of bean breeding in Uganda from 1960-90 is reviewed, covering production constraints, germplasm collections, introductions, and cultivar release. Note is made of the restructuring of the breeding programme in 1989 and the resulting large increase in breeding material handled. Yield resul...

description The history of bean breeding in Uganda from 1960-90 is reviewed, covering production constraints, germplasm collections, introductions, and cultivar release. Note is made of the restructuring of the breeding programme in 1989 and the resulting large increase in breeding material handled. Yield results from the 1990b season are presented, showing that breeding lines have been identified with yields over double that of the local cultivar K 20. (AS)

(AS) Se revisa la historia del mejoramiento de frijol en Uganda de 1960-90, incluyendo los limitantes de la produccion, recolecciones de germoplasma, introducciones y liberacion de cv. Se destaca la reestructuracion del programa de mejoramiento en 1989 que dio como resultado un incremento considerable del material mejorado que se manipula. Se presentan resultados de rendimientos para la estacion 1990b, indicando la identificacion de lineas mejoradas con rendimientos de mas del doble de los del cv. local K 20.
