Abstract

The objective of this work is to present the new bean cultivar ‘Odile’, which was obtained from a selection of the SCR 15 line. This line was achieved through the conventional method of hybridization between SER 118xNCB 226 / -MC-4C-MC-14C -MC at the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) and it was introduced in Cuba, in generation F8, in 2010. The selection in Cuba began in November 2010. ‘Odile’ has a reddish-brown color and presents very good culinary quality, it is medium cycle, resistant to yellow bean golden mosaic virus (BGYMV), common bean bacterium (Xanthomonas axonopodis pv phaseoli) and rust (Uromyces appendiculatus) and has shown a high and stable yield potential.
