Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a globally important grain legume, yet the genetic diversity of landraces from the Peruvian Amazon remains poorly characterized. This study aimed to assess the population structure and genetic diversity of Amazonian common bean by integrating morphological and genome-wide SNP data. A total of 476 accessions were phenotyped using 18 morphological traits, and 647 accessions were genotyped with 23,050 high-quality DArTseq SNP markers. Cluster and population structure analyses consistently identified two major genetic groups corresponding to the Andean (n = 284) and Mesoamerican (n = 363) gene pools, with further subdivision into four subgroups at K = 4. Principal Coordinate Analysis supported this structure, with the first axis explaining 62.62% of the variation in the molecular data. Genetic diversity was high, with 94.9% of SNPs successfully mapped and more than 94% of loci polymorphic in both groups. However, observed heterozygosity was low (Ho = 0.035–0.041) compared to expected heterozygosity (He ≈ 0.147–0.148), and inbreeding coefficients were high (FIS = 0.52–0.54), consistent with the predominantly self-pollinating mating system. Hill number analyses indicated similar allelic richness between groups (q = 0: α ≈ 1.95–1.97) and low differentiation in allele presence (β = 1.04), whereas differentiation increased when allele frequencies were considered (q = 2: β ≈ 1.4–1.5). Morphological analyses revealed substantial phenotypic variation, including flowering time (32–75 days), pod length (6.5–17.3 cm), and number of locules per pod (2–11), and identified four distinct phenotypic clusters. No redundant accessions were detected. These results indicate that Amazonian landraces harbor high levels of genetic and phenotypic diversity structured by gene pool origin and local adaptation. The integration of morphological and SNP data provides a robust framework for germplasm characterization and highlights the importance of conserving these genetic resources for future breeding and sustainable agriculture.
Rhizobium inoculation sustains optimal yields on native common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) under nitrogen-deficient fertilization

Native bean genotypes (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) play a crucial role in ensuring food security in the Andean region. However, their cultivation faces challenges, such as low yields and a high dependence on nitrogen fertilizers. Addressing these issues requires the development of sustainable strategies to enhance productivity. This study evaluated the interaction between Rhizobium phaseoli inoculation and three levels of phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) fertilization on the growth, yield, and nutritional profile of the 'Tiachos bayo' native bean variety under Andean field conditions. Two R. phaseoli strains (UNC-1 and CIAT-2) were tested in combination with three levels of chemical fertilization (0%, 50%, and 100%) using a factorial design under field conditions. Parameters assessed included nodule number, plant height, phenology, yield, and proximal grain composition. Results indicated that inoculation and fertilization levels significantly influenced nodulation, phenological phases, and crop yield. The highest yield (2172 kg·ha⁻¹) and nodule number (78) were observed with the combined treatment of R. phaseoli CIAT-2 strain with 100% fertilization. It was concluded that R. phaseoli inoculation, when integrated with appropriate fertilization, enhances the productivity of native beans.
