Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) provides critical nutrition and a livelihood for millions of smallholder farmers worldwide. Beans engage in symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) with Rhizobia. Honduran hillside farmers farm marginal land and utilize few production inputs; therefore, bean varieties with high SNF capacity and environmental resiliency would be of benefit to them. We explored the diversity for SNF, agronomic traits, and water use efficiency (WUE) among 70 Honduran landrace, participatory bred (PPB), and conventionally bred bean varieties (HON panel) and 6 North American check varieties in 3 low-N field trials in Ontario, Canada and Honduras. Genetic diversity was measured with a 6K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array, and phenotyping for agronomic, SNF, and WUE traits was carried out. STRUCTURE analysis revealed two subpopulations with admixture between the subpopulations. Nucleotide diversity was greater in the landraces than the PPB varieties across the genome, and multiple genomic regions were identified where population genetic differentiation between the landraces and PPB varieties was evident. Significant differences were found between varieties and breeding categories for agronomic traits, SNF, and WUE. Landraces had above average SNF capacity, conventional varieties showed higher yields, and PPB varieties performed well for WUE. Varieties with the best SNF capacity could be used in further participatory breeding efforts.

EFEITO DE MÉTODOS DE DETERMINAÇÃO DE PARÂMETROS PARA O CONTROLE DA IRRIGAÇÃO NA EFICÊNCIA DO USO DA ÁGUA DO FEIJOEIRO, SOB TRÊS DIFERENTES LÂMINAS DE ÁGUA NO SOLO  João Baptista Chieppe Júnior1; Ana Lucia Pereira2; Luis Fernando Stone3; José Aluísio Alves Moreira3; Antônio Evaldo Klar41Centro Federal de Educação Tecnológica de Rio Verde, Rio Verde, GO, [email protected] 2Ministério da Agricultura Pecuária e Abastecimento, Epitaciolândia, AC,3Embrapa Arroz e Feijão, Santo Antônio de Goiás, GO4Departamento de Engenharia Rural, Faculdade de Ciências Agronômicas, Universidade Estadual Paulista, Botucatu, SP  1 RESUMO  O trabalho objetivou estudar o efeito de três métodos de determinação de parâmetros para controle de irrigação, aplicada em diferentes tensões, na eficiência do uso da água (E.U.A.) do feijoeiro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Os tratamentos resultaram da combinação de três métodos de determinação de parâmetros para controle da irrigação (tensiômetro – curva de retenção da água do solo e tanque USWB “classe A”) e três tensões de água do solo (1:-30 kPa todo ciclo; 2: -60 kPa todo ciclo e 3: -60 kPa fase vegetativa e -30 kPa fase reprodutiva) perfazendo nove tratamentos, obedecendo a um delineamento experimental em blocos ao acaso num esquema fatorial 32 e três repetições. Embora não tenha ocorrido efeito significativo, verificou-se, neste ensaio, tendência à elevação da eficiência do uso da água nos tratamentos que utilizaram as tensões de -60 kPa na fase vegetativa e -30 kPa na fase reprodutiva, em todos os métodos de determinação de parâmetros controle da irrigação com uma economia de água, pois se irrigou menos o feijão na fase vegetativa e forneceu mais água na fase reprodutiva, visto que não houve precipitação no período de junho a setembro de 1995, obtendo-se assim ótima produção e, conseqüentemente, maior eficiência do uso da água (E.U.A.). UNITERMOS : tensão da água no solo, irrigação, eficiência do uso da água, Phaseolus vulgaris  CHIEPPE JÚNIOR, J.

EFFECTS OF PARAMETER DETERMINATION METHODS FOR COMMON BEAN IRRIGATION CONTROL  2 ABSTRACT The objective of this research was to study three methods of parameter determination for irrigation control under different tensions in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The treatments were a combination of three methods of parameter determination for irrigation control (tensiometer, water retention curve,  USWB Class A pan) with three soil water tensions (1:-30 kPa; 2:-60 kPa both for the whole plant cycle; 3:-60 kPa for the vegetative phase and -30 kPa for the reproductive phase). The experimental design was randomized blocks, factorial 32 with three replicates. Although no significant effect on water use efficiency was found, a tendency for increasing water use efficiency in treatments with tensions of -60 kPa at the vegetative phase and -30 kPa at the reproductive phase was observed in all methods of parameter determination for irrigation control. Water was saved as less irrigation was applied during the vegetative phase and more irrigation at the reproductive phase. No precipitation was observed from June to September 1995, leading to a high yield and therefore to a higher water use efficiency. KEY WORDS:  soil water tension , water use efficiency, Phaseolus vulgaris
