Abstract

Present research was realized during 2017 vegetation period in Konya ecological conditions according to Augmented Trial Design for the purpose of better yield, some superior traits and using in breeding programs of the bean genotypes, a total of 122 bean lines which are collected from domestic and abroad sources and 3 standard varieties – as control were used in the study. Results showed the minimum and maximum values as following; 3.01 – 392.96 g for yield per plant, 10.76 – 74.41 g for hundred seed weight, 6.67 – 246.67 cm for plant height, 1.78 – 3.44 cm for number of main branches per plant, 1.94 –87.39 for number of pod per plant, 1.39 – 5.72 for number of seed per pod, 108 – 186 days for vegetation length. According to the results of the present study, bean genotypes presented a wide variation. Totally, 14 genotypes showed higher seed yield than the control varieties which means those genotypes are promising as genetic source for the breeding work
