evaluation of yield and yield components and some agronomic traits of white bean genotypes under karaj climate

in order to study compatibility of 30 white bean genotypes under karaj climate, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with four replications. evaluation and statistical analysis was performed for 18 important traits. analysis of variance results showed that there are significant differences between varieties for all traits. results of genotypes means comparison with duncan’s multiple range test showed that genotype no. 29 was better than others in plant height, yield, and biological yield, seed no. per plant and pod weight traits. simple correlation coefficients were significant between yield and weight of pod, biological yield, number of seed per plant, number of pod per plant, plant height, width of pod and number of seed per pod. only pod length was negative correlated with yield between all investigated traits. cluster analysis with upgma method arrangement genotypes into three groups. according to this experiment results we can recommend 29 and 30 genotypes for karaj condition
