Accomplishments

W150 continues to carry out major collaborative common bean research. Yield, adaptation, reaction to disease across environments, new gene identification and markers for resistance to disease, pollination biology, collection and storage of species diversity in landraces, and yield improvement by crossing to wild types were evaluated this year.

A new bean disease was identified in the State of Washington and was named "phyllody". Heat and cold tolerance, total dietary fiber and indigestible starch, soaking, color loss and cooking quality were all part of the research reported this year. There is an excellent working relationship and discussion of needs by the private sector, land grant universities and the Agricultural Research Service of the USDA.

One patent was issued to Michigan State University for ‘DNA encoding for a disease resistance gene from common bean and methods of use‘. Plant Variety Protection was granted for Beluga white kidney, Red Hawk dark red kidney and Matterhorn great northern.

Michigan released cultivar "Merlot", a small red dry bean with upright architecture, superior canning quality and resistance to bean common mosaic virus. They also released "Claret" an early, short season small red bean suited for double cropping systems in the western US. Michigan State University and the USDA-ARS released "Seahawk" a multiple disease resistant navy bean cultivar.

Eight germplasm releases were made with focus on disease resistance. The diseases targeted are anthracnose, rust, white mold, bean common mosaic virus, bean golden yellow mosaic virus, and heat and cold tolerance.

The collaborative nurseries and their activities are described as follows:
NATIONAL COOPERATIVE DRY BEAN NURSERY
Tested 25 genotypes with nine market classes at 12 locations in the US and Canada for seed yield, maturity, plant type, and reaction to diseases. At the Othello Station in Washington the overall yield was 3543 kg/hectar. Deficiencies in zinc and phosphorus coupled with high temperatures during flowering and pod set at some locations severely lowered yields.
MIDWEST REGIONAL PERFORMANCE NURSERY
Tested 22 genotypes at four locations. This nursery provides evaluation of advanced breeding lines of pinto and great northern for yield stability by environment. Data are still being analyzed.
WESETERN REGIONAL BEAN TRIAL
Located in Idaho, Colorado and Washington, evaluated eight genotypes of pinto market class beans. All genotypes tested this year, along with the checks, were highly susceptible to white mold.
WINTER NURSERY IN PUERTO RICO
Advanced 1320 common bean breeding lines in addition to an unspecified number of white and black seeding lines. This winter nursery shortens the time necessary for breeding programs and releases and is vital to all members of the committee.
NATIONAL WHITE MOLD NURSERY
Coordinated by Nebraska in 11 states. They identified new sources of partial resistance. Overall average percent infection was 68%. "Cornell 501" showed only 31% infection. Field results were consistant with greenhouse results.
USDA-ARS PHASEOLUS COLLECTION
14,265 accessions representing 42 species are in the collection as of 10-20-03. Twenty one percent are BCMV free. 358 accessions were increased. Germination testing was done on 860 acessions. 1352 accessions were distributed to researchers, 19.5% in the Western region, 44.8% outside the Western region and 35.7% were sent out of the U.S.

Physiological and organic diseases studied by the committee included: heat and cold tolerance, copper tolerance, common bacterial blight, cucumber mosaic virus, root rot, rust, white mold, phyllody, and the soybean aphid.

Research on cooking quality and soaking continued. There was a strong correlation between water uptake, shininess of the seed and color loss.

Genetic studies and gene markers were successful this year. Flavanone 3-hydroxylase gene is necessary for color production in the seed coat. A SCAR marker helped identify a gene responsible for resistance to Beet Curly Top
Virus. A QTL-linked SCAR marker was used to determine resistance to common bacterial blight in Great Northern. Three resistance genes were found for Fusarium wilt in commmon bean. A single dominant gene controls resistance to three races. A single dominant gene contols resistance to the rust causing pathogen race 59. QTL analysis confirmed ICA Bunsi white mold resistance loci on the linkage groups B2 an B7. Two major QTL markers were found for white mold resistance in snap bean breeding lines.

Impacts

  1. The adoption of new dry bean cultivars in Michigan contributed in part to the 10% increase in yield over the 1998-2003 period.
  2. Dry bean cultivars released from W-150 efforts dominate production in North Dakota and Minnesota.
  3. Commerical value of released cultivars in North Dakota exceeded $50 million.
  4. Cultivars with disease resistance reduce fungicide use and impact the environment while saving money for the producer.
