Abstract
The catalogue contains the results of protein content assessment in seeds of 216 common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) accessions from the VIR plant genetic resources collection. The data of a long-term study with mean values of characters for each accession are presented. The study of main agronomic characters in the accessions was conducted from 2004 through 2018 in the experimental fields at Astrakhan Experiment Station of VIR. The accessions are described employing eight morphological and agronomic characters important for breeding practice. This catalogue is intended to serve as a tool in source material selection for further breeding process. It may prove helpful for plant breeders and grain legume experts.
