Adaption of beans to growing season length in Malawi

Twenty-two bean genotypes were assessed in monoculture and in association with maize (NSCM 41) to identify germplasm genotypes from Bunda, Malawi, that synchronize maturity with the end of the growing season. Responses differed among the 3 trial sites (Ng'onga, Bunda, and Matapwata). In general, yie...

description Twenty-two bean genotypes were assessed in monoculture and in association with maize (NSCM 41) to identify germplasm genotypes from Bunda, Malawi, that synchronize maturity with the end of the growing season. Responses differed among the 3 trial sites (Ng'onga, Bunda, and Matapwata). In general, yields were lower in association than in monoculture at all sites. Lines Sapelekedwa, 8- 7, 7-8, 6-1, 5-2, 16-6, 2-10, and 11-1 were outstanding considering their high yields in monoculture and in association. Hybrids only performed well in Bunda. Seed size was generally big in Ng'onga; 17 genotypes had seed size between 25-39 g/100 seeds and 3 between 40.8-56.2 g/100 seeds. Genotypes also varied in no. of seeds/pod, with significant differences in Matapwata and highly significant differences in Ng'onga. (CIAT)

(CIAT) Se evaluaron 22 genotipos de frijol en monocultivo y en asociacion con maiz (NSCM 41) para identificar genotipos del germoplasma de Bunda, Malawi, que sincronicen madurez con el final de la epoca de cultivo. Las respuestas difirieron entre los 3 sitios del ensayo: Ng'onga, Bunda y Matapwata. En general, los rendimientos fueron menores en asociacion que en monocultivo en todos los sitios. Por sus buenos rendimientos en monocultivo y en asociacion en mas de una localidad se destacaron las lineas Sapelekedwa, 8-7, 7-8, 6-1, 5-2, 16-6, 2-10 y 11-1. Los hibridos solo presentaron un buen desempeno en Bunda. El tamano de semilla fue generalmente grande en Ng'onga; 17 genotipos presentaron tamanos de semilla entre 25-39 g/100 semillas y 3 entre 40.8-56.2 g/100 semillas. Los genotipos tambien variaron en el no. de semillas/vaina, con diferencias significativas en Matapwata y altamente significativas en Ng'onga.
