Abstract
The black bean cultivar IAC Veloz developed by the dry edible bean (or common bean) breeding program of the Instituto Agronômico-IAC stands out because of its early cycle, upright plant type, 1000 seed weight of 220 grams, and mean yield potential of 3770 kg ha-1 in a total of 18 environments.
Highlights
Dry edible bean, or common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), is prominent in the Brazilian diet because of its numerous benefits to human health (Lovato et al 2018)
Considering surveys for the 2018-2019 crop year, the area planted to black beans is 74.5% less than the area dedicated to growing common bean with colored seed coats (CONAB 2020), influenced by regionalized consumption habits related to grain type and by the Brazilian preference for the carioca seed coat
In light of the above, the aim of this paper is to present the cultivar Instituto Agronômico (IAC) Veloz as a new alternative in black bean, which stands out in different environments by its early maturity and yield potential
