Abstract
Winmor is an early-maturing, partially upright pinto bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) with high yield potential and an average seed weight of 35.8 g 100 seeds-1. Winmor was developed at the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) Research Station, Morden, MB, in collaboration with the AAFC Research Centre, Lethbridge, AB. Winmor is well adapted to the Canadian prairies, especially for production in southern Manitoba. Winmor is resistant to anthracnose race 73 [caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum (Sacc. & Magnus) Lams.-Scrib.], the predominant race in Manitoba. Winmor is susceptible, as is the check cultivar AC Pintoba, to white mould [caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary] and common bacterial blight [caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli (Smith) Vauterin et al. (Xap)]. Key words: Pinto bean, cultivar description, anthracnose resistance, early maturity
