Evaluation of dry bean genotypes for phosphorus use efficiency in tropical acid soil.

Dry bean is an important legume for South American population and phosphorus deficiency is most yield limiting nutrient for crop production in South American soils. A greenhouse experiment was conducted with the objective to evaluate influence of P fertilization on dry matter and grain yield of 30 dry bean genotypes. The P levels used were O mg P kq and 200 mg P kg' soil. Dry matter and grain yield were significantly influenced with P as well as genotype treatments. The P X genotype interaction was also significant for these traits, indicating different responses of genotypes at two P levels.
