Resumo
The bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is an important food because of its nutritional composition and has high mineral content, vitamins, carbohydrates, fiber and protein. Creole or traditional accessions can be defined as genotypes in use by farmers, obtained from natural crossings and that have not undergone any genetic breeding. The cultivation of these genotypes by small and medium farmers provides the conservation of genetic resources. Furthermore, there is the possibility of this diversity is exploited by the bean crop breeding programs, since they are well characterized according to the agronomic interest in technological and nutritional qualities. The aim of this study was to analyze the centesimal composition of Creole accessions of common beans cultivated in mesoregion of North of Minas Gerais State, Brazil.
