Conteúdo: | Bean production in Brazil and its limitations are briefly described. The Centro Nacional de Pesquisa em Arroz e Feijao (CNPAF) coordinates the bean national research program, although there are other government institutions working on bean breeding programs. The center introduces germplasm from the Centro Nacional de Recursos Geneticos (CENARGEN) as well as from international institutions, collects native races from bean producing areas, and selects the best lines, using 2 kinds of tests. Var. are released in all these stages. Germplasm is evaluated for disease resistance (especially anthracnose, angular leaf spot, rust, bacterioses, and BGMV), multiple disease resistance, high N fixation, earliness, architecture, and yield. CNPAF encourages other Brazilian institutions to develop their own crossings and stimulates technical exchange among Brazilian institutions in the areas of breeding, germplasm, and sources of resistance. CIAT could contribute evaluating the germplasm collected and increasing the exchange of information on new techniques and on germplasm availability.
