Phenotypic parameters of macromineral and phenolic compound concentrations and selection of Andean bean lines with nutritional and functional properties

Parâmetros fenotípicos da concentração de macrominerais e compostos fenólicos e seleção de linhagens de feijão Andino com propriedades nutricionais e funcionais

ABSTRACT

The development of Andean common bean lines that contain high macromineral concentration and a phenolic compound concentration that meets the consumer’s dietary requirements is unprecedented in the literature. The objectives of this study were to obtain estimates of phenotypic parameters for the macromineral and phenolic compound concentrations in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population of Andean beans and to select lines with nutritional and functional properties. The RIL was obtained from a cross between cultivars Hooter and Cal 96. The lines in the F5:6 and F5:7 generations and the cultivars were evaluated in two consecutive experiments in the same experimental area. The concentrations of potassium (K), phosphorus (P), magnesium (Mg), and calcium (Ca) were determined by acid digestion, whereas the phenolic compound concentration was obtained by the Follin-Ciocalteu method. A significant genotype effect was observed for all traits evaluated in the F5:6 and F5:7 generations. Intermediate-to-high heritability estimates (h2: 43.15 to 98.85%) were obtained for the concentrations of K, P, Mg, Ca and phenolic compounds. These traits exhibited transgressive segregation and quantitative inheritance in the RIL population of Andean beans. Lines DFA 34-18 and DFA 46-18 have high K and P concentrations and low phenolic compound concentration and will be selected by the human nutrition. Lines DFA 04-18 and DFA 05-18 and cultivars Pérola, IPR Siriri, IAC Imperador, and IPR Tangará showed high concentrations of two or more macrominerals and phenolic compounds; therefore, they have nutritional and functional properties and will be selected by the breeding program.
