Abstract
The rajado seeded Andean bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivar BRSMG Realce (striped seed coat) developed by Embrapa expressed a high level of anthracnose resistance, caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, in field and greenhouse screenings. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the inheritance of anthracnose resistance in BRSMG Realce, map the resistance locus or major gene cluster previously named as Co-Realce, identify resistance-related positional genes, and analyze potential markers linked to the resistance allele. F2 plants derived from the cross BRSMG Realce × BRS FC104 (Mesoamerican) and from the cross BRSMG Realce × BRS Notável (Mesoamerican) were inoculated with the C. lindemuthianum races 475 and 81, respectively. The BRSMG Realce × BRS FC104 F2 population was also genotyped using the DArTseq technology. Crosses between BRSMG Realce and BAT 93 (Mesoamerican) were also conducted and resulting F2 plants were inoculated with the C. lindemuthianum races 65 and 1609, individually. The results shown that anthracnose resistance in BRSMG Realce is controlled by a single locus with complete dominance. A genetic map including 1,118 SNP markers was built and shown 78% of the markers mapped at a distances less than 5.0 cM, with a total genetic length of 4,473.4 cM. A major locus (Co-Realce) explaining 54.6% of the phenotypic variation of symptoms caused by the race 475 was identified in Pv04, flanked by the markers snp1327 and snp12782 and 4.48 cM apart each other. These SNPs are useful for marker-assisted selection, due to an estimated selection efficiency of 99.2%. The identified resistance allele segregates independently of the resistance allele Co-33 (Pv04) present in BAT 93. The mapped genomic region with 704,867 bp comprising 63 putative genes, 44 of which were related to the pathogen-host interaction. Based on all these results and evidence, anthracnose resistance in BRSMG Realce should be considered as monogenic, useful for breeding purpose. It is proposed that locus Co-Realce is unique and be provisionally designated as CoPv04R until be officially nominated in accordance with the rules established by the Bean Improvement Cooperative Genetics Committee.

Abstract
This integrative literature review study analyzes the findings of the last 5 years of the parasite Angiostrongylus cantonensis. It is known that this nematode is found in the pulmonary arteries of rats, where it remains as a definitive host. From mice, the cycle spreads to animals, such as snails, which in contact with humans can trigger the disease. In humans, the parasite causes several neurological, abdominal manifestations and mainly meningitis. Based on the review of studies, its epidemiology shows worldwide distribution, although there are endemic cases for this parasite, such as asian countries. Laboratory findings generally showed altered CSF with turbidity, increased protein and eosinophilia, which generated meningeal signs in the patient, moreover MRI exams showed multiple alterations. Rare findings of the nematode in the eyeball, lung and signs of peritoneal inflammation were reported, which requires further studies to understand the whole pathophysiology. Finally, conservative treatment based on anthelmintics and anti-inflammatories brought good responses, although there are reports of deaths, which demonstrates the importance in the prevention and therapy of this disease.

Abstract
Slow seed coat darkening is desirable in common bean cultivars and genetic parameters are important to define breeding strategies. The aims of this study were to estimate genetic parameters for plant architecture, grain yield, grain size, and seed-coat darkening in common bean; identify any genetic association among these traits; and select lines that associate desirable phenotypes for these traits. Three experiments were set up in the winter 2012 growing season, in Santo Antônio de Goiás and Brasília, Brazil, including 220 lines obtained from four segregating populations and five parents. A triple lattice 15 x 15 experimental design was used. The traits evaluated were plant architecture, grain yield, grain size, and seed-coat darkening. Analyses of variance were carried out and genetic parameters such as heritability, gain expected from selection, and correlations, were estimated. For selection of superior lines, a "weight-free and parameter-free" index was used. The estimates of genetic variance, heritability, and gain expected from selection were high, indicating good possibility for success in selection of the four traits. The genotype x environment interaction was proportionally more important for yield than for the other traits. There was no strong genetic correlation observed among the four traits, which indicates the possibility of selection of superior lines with many traits. Considering simultaneous selection, it was not possible to join high genetic gains for the four traits. Forty-four lines that combined high yield, more upright plant architecture, slow darkening grains, and commercial grade size were selected.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the phenotypic stability and specific and broad adaptability of common black bean genotypes for the Central and Center-South regions of Brazil by using the Annicchiarico and AMMI (weighted average of absolute scores: WAAS, and weighted average of absolute scores and productivity: WAASP) methodologies. We carried out 69 trials, with 43 and 26 trials in the Central and Center-South regions, respectively. Thirteen genotypes were evaluated in a randomized block design with three replications, during the rainy, dry, and winter seasons in 2 years. To obtain estimates of specific adaptation, we analyzed the parameters for each method obtained in the two geographic regions separately. To estimate broad adaptation, we used the average of the parameters obtained from each region. The lines identified with high specific adaptation in each region were not the same based on the Annicchiarico and AMMI (WAAS) methodologies. It was not possible to identify the same genotypes with specific or broad stability by using these methods. By contrast, the Annicchiarico and AMMI (WAASP) methods presented very similar estimates of broad and specific adaptation. Based on these methods, the lines with more specific adaptation were CNFP 8000 and CNFP 7994, in the Central and Center-South regions, respectively, of which the CNFP 8000 line was more widely adapted.

Abstract
Grain yield is strongly influenced by the environment, has polygenic and complex inheritance, and is a key trait in the selection and recommendation of cultivars. Breeding programs should efficiently explore the genetic variability resulting from crosses by selecting the most appropriate method for breeding in segregating populations. The goal of this study was to evaluate and compare the genetic potential of common bean progenies of carioca grain for grain yield, obtained by different breeding methods and evaluated in different environments. Progenies originating from crosses between lines and CNFC 7812 and CNFC 7829 were replanted up to the F7 generation using three breeding methods in segregating populations: population (bulk), bulk within F2 progenies, and single-seed descent (SSD). Fifteen F8 progenies per method, two controls (BRS Estilo and Perola), and the parents were evaluated in a 7 x 7 simple lattice design, with plots of two 4-m rows. The tests were conducted in 10 environments in four States of Brazil and in three growing seasons in 2009 and 2010. Genetic parameters including genetic variance, heritability, variance of interaction, and expected selection gain were estimated. Genetic variability among progenies and the effect of progeny-environment interactions were determined for the three methods. The breeding methods differed significantly due to the effects of sampling procedures on the progenies and due to natural selection, which mainly affected the bulk method. The SSD and bulk methods provided populations with better estimates of genetic parameters and more stable progenies that were less affected by interaction with the environment.

Abstract
One of the current focus of common bean breeding programs in Brazil is to increase iron (FeC) and zinc content (ZnC) in grains. The objectives of this study were to estimate genetic parameters for FeC and ZnC in common bean, verify the need for conducting multi-site evaluation tests, identify elite lines that combine high FeC and ZnC with good adaptability, stability, and agronomic potential, and examine the genetic association between FeC and ZnC. Elite lines (140) were evaluated for important agronomic traits in multiple environments. In one trial, FeC and ZnC were evaluated and genetic parameters were estimated. Based on the high heritability estimates and significant selection gains obtained, the conditions for a successful selection was favorable. Of the 140 evaluated lines, 17 had higher FeC and ZnC, and were included in the validation test (2013, five environments), specifically for the evaluation of FeC and ZnC. The line by environment interaction for FeC and ZnC was detected, but it was predominantly simple. The environmental effect strongly influenced FeC and ZnC . The environment Brasília/rainy season was selected as the best evaluation site for preliminary tests for FeC and ZnC, because it resulted in similar conclusions as the mean of the five environments. The lines CNFP 15701 and CNFC 15865 had higher FeC and ZnC and were highly adaptable and stable, and are recommended for utilization in breeding programs. The lines CNFC 15833, CNFC 15703, and CNFP 15676 showed excellent combined agronomic and nutritional traits, and were selected for the development of biofortified cultivars. Additionally, the genetic association between FeC and ZnC was detected.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal health is of great importance due to the increasing consumption of functional foods, especially those concern-ing diets rich in fiber content. The common bean has been valorized as a nutritious food due to its appreciable fiber content and the fact that it is consumed in many countries. The current study aimed to evaluate and compare the genetic potential of common bean progenies of the carioca group, developed through different breeding methods, for crude fiber content. The progenies originated through hybridization of two advanced strains, CNFC 7812 and CNFC 7829, up to the F7 generation using three breeding methods: bulk-population, bulk within F2 families, and single seed descent. Fifteen F8 progenies were evaluated in each method, as well as two check cultivars and both parents, us-ing a 7 x 7 simple lattice design, with experimental plots comprised of two 4-m long rows. Field trials were conducted in eleven environments encompassing four Brazilian states and three different sowing times during 2009 and 2010. Estimates of genetic parameters indicate differences among the breeding methods, which seem to be related to the different processes for sampling the advanced progenies inherent to each method, given that the trait in question is not subject to natural selection. Variability amongst progenies occurred within the three breeding methods and there was also a significant effect of environment on the progeny for all methods. Progenies developed by bulk-population attained the highest estimates of genetic parameters, had less interaction with the environment, and greater variability.

Abstract
The common bean is an important source of iron and zinc in humans. Increases in the contents of these minerals can combat mineral deficiencies, but these contents are influenced by environmental conditions. Thus, the objectives of this study were to investigate the interaction between common bean lines and water availability on iron and zinc contents (CFe and CZn, respectively), identify superior lines with stable CFe and CZn, and test for a genetic relationship between CFe and CZn. Six crop trials were performed using a randomized block design with three replications. The trials were performed during the winter sowing period for three different combinations of year and site in Brazil. For each combination, 53 lines were evaluated across two parallel trials; one trial was irrigated according to the crop requirements, and the other trial operated under a water deficit. Interaction was detected between lines and environments, and between lines and water availability for CFe and CZn. However, some lines exhibited high CFe and CZn in both conditions. Lines G 6492 and G 6490 exhibited high mean values, stability, and adaptability for both minerals. Other lines exhibited high CFe (Xamego) or CZn (Bambuí and Iapar 65). A moderate genetic correlation (0.62) between CFe and CZn was detected. Water availability during the common bean cycle had an effect on CFe and CZn; however, lines with high CFe and CZn in different conditions of water availability and environment were detected.

Abstract
The maintenance of the light color of the grains of carioca beans is a requirement for the development of new cultivars of common beans because it enables the storage of grains for long periods so that they may be traded at a proper opportunity. Crosses of cultivar BRSMG Madrepérola, which presents slow grain darkening, were made to 10 elite lines presenting normal darkening to obtain information about the genetic control of the trait and estimates of phenotypic and genotypic parameters. Progenies at the tegument generations F3 and F4 and their parents were evaluated at the locations of Santo Antônio de Goiás and Ponta Grossa at 71, 106, and 155 days of storage for seed-coat darkening using a rank of scores ranging from 1 (very light colored grains) to 5 (very dark colored grains). Genotypic and phenotypic variances and broad-sense heritabilities were estimated for each population. The segregation ratios were subjected to the chi-square test to establish the genetic control. Some populations did not present consistent patterns of genetic control, while others presented monogenic or double-recessive digenic segregation, indicating that the trait is controlled by few genes. Six segregant populations were identified with both low means for darkening and high expected gain under selection. Despite the strong environmental influence on the expression of the traits and the occurrence of the genotype by environment interaction, the estimates of genotypic and phenotypic parameters indicate the possibility of successful selection to develop lines with slow seed-coat darkening.

Abstract
The identification of germplasm genetic variability in breeding programs of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is essential for determining the potential of each combination of parent plants to obtain superior genotypes. The present study aimed to estimated the extent of genetic diversity in 172 lineages and cultivars of the common bean by integrating five tests of value for cultivation and use (VCU) that were conducted over the last eight years by the breeding program of Embrapa Arroz e Feijão in Brazil. Nine multilocus genotyping systems composed of 36 fluorescent microsatellite markers distributed across 11 different chromosomes of the common bean were used, of which 24 were polymorphic in all trials. One hundred and eighty-seven alleles were identified, with an average of 7.79 alleles per locus and an average gene diversity of 0.65. The combined probability of identity for all loci was 1.32 x 10(-16). Lineages that are more genetically divergent between the selection cycles were identified, allowing the breeding program to develop a crossbreed between elite genotypes with a low degree of genetic relatedness. HE values ranged from 0.31 to 0.63, with a large reduction in the genetic base over successive selection cycles. The test showed a significant degree of differentiation (FST = 0.159). Private alleles (26%) were identified and can be directly incorporated into the gene pool of cultivated germplasm, thereby contributing effectively to the expansion of genetic diversity in this bean-breeding program.

Abstract
The objectives of the present study were to monitor the effect of backcrossing through microsatellite markers and to compare different marker assisted selection strategies. Four populations were developed using donor parents resistant to the bean golden mosaic virus and, for all crosses, only individuals resistant to the bean golden mosaic virus were backcrossed. For crosses ARC100-4 x DOR303 and ARC100-4 x PHAS8328, assisted selection was carried out in the F(2) and F(2)BC(1) generations, while in the remaining crosses selection was performed only in the F(2)BC(1) generation. For the microsatellite analysis, in each generation, 20 markers were genotyped. The molecular data were analyzed using the NTSys program and the proportion of the recurrent genome introgressed was estimated, based on genotypical configuration of the segregant populations compared to the recurrent parents. The results indicate a higher efficiency in recovering the genotype of the elite genitor through the strategy of backcross assisted selection in the successive generations, and demonstrate a practical and useful application of molecular marker technology associated with bean breeding, to reduce the number of backcrosses and the time to recover the genome of the recurrent genitors.

Abstract
Plant resistance to pathogens is the most efficient form of disease control. However, identification of resistant genotypes is often difficult, especially when the genetic basis for the host-pathogen relationship is unknown. This study was carried out to test a methodology capable of providing, in a simple way, information about host vertical and horizontal resistance as well as pathogen virulence. A simulation using twenty, ten, and five pathogen races and twenty hosts was carried out. Host reaction was controlled by ten genes with two alleles each. Eight genes had little effects, one had medium and the other strong effects. Genetic control of pathogenicity was identical to that of the host. Only homozygous genotypes were used for pathogens and hosts in this simulation, with no epistatic effects. Simulation was based on the expected disease severity with the inoculation of twenty hosts with twenty pathogen races, according to additive and interactive models proposed by Parlevliet and Zadoks (Euphytica 26: 5-21, 1977). Data were analyzed by model IV of Griffing, using a partial diallel scheme. A high correlation was found between general reaction ability (GRA) and potential host resistance, which proved to be an indicator of horizontal resistance. A high correlation between general aggressivity ability (GAA) and potential pathogenicity of the race also proved to be an aggressivity indicator. Specific interaction ability (SIA) is an indicator of host vertical resistance and pathogen virulence. Simulation with a lower number of races (ten and five) showed similar results. SIA was significant in both the interactive and additive models.

Abstract
The alterations caused by eight different similarity coefficients were evaluated in the clustering and ordination of 27 common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars analyzed by RAPD markers. The Anderberg, simple matching, Rogers and Tanimoto, Russel and Rao, Ochiai, Jaccard, Sorensen-Dice, and Ochiai II's coefficients were tested. Comparisons among the coefficients were made through correlation analysis of genetic distances obtained by the complement of these coefficients, dendrogram evaluation (visual inspection and consensus fork index - CIC), projection efficiency in a two-dimensional space, and groups formed by Tocher's optimization procedure. The employment of different similarity coefficients caused few alterations in cultivar classification, since correlations among genetic distances were larger than 0.86. Nevertheless, the different similarity coefficients altered the projection efficiency in a two-dimensional space and formed different numbers of groups by Tocher's optimization procedure. Among these coefficients, Russel and Rao's was the most discordant and the Sorensen-Dice was considered the most adequate due to a higher projection efficiency in a two-dimensional space. Even though few structural changes were suggested in the most different groups, these coefficients altered some relationships between cultivars with high genetic similarity.

Abstract
The genetic divergence of 27 common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars from different races was evaluated using RAPD markers. The association of this divergence with some indirect variability estimates obtained in field experiments was also assessed. Genetic distances were calculated using Sorensen-Dice's similarity coefficient, displayed in a dendrogram (UPGMA method), and by projection in two-dimensional space. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) was used to evaluate the distribution of variance between and within domestication centers. RAPD marker genetic diversity within these centers was also calculated. The correlations between estimates of genetic distances obtained with RAPD markers and estimates of Mahalanobis' generalized distances, specific combination ability, and midparent heterosis obtained from morpho-agronomical traits were also determined. RAPD markers were efficient in separating cultivars according to domestication centers. However, only for Middle American domestication center was there good agreement between the grouping obtained and the proposed classification of races. The genetic divergence obtained with these markers was similar to that provided by morpho-agronomical traits. RAPD markers, however, were not efficient in predicting the specific combination ability and midparent heterosis expressed in crosses.
