Variety traits

1000-seed weight of common bean

Phaseolus vulgaris L.

The 1000-seed weight of common bean is a key varietal indicator of seed size and sowing value, determining the seeding rate. The trait values vary significantly depending on the crop type, ranging from 194 g in small-seeded forms to 290–440 g in grain varieties.

In the reference 62 varieties crop Common bean, where this is mentioned in the description.

The indicator is used to convert the weight-based seeding rate into a quantitative one, which allows for the optimization of plant stand density and the realization of yield potential. Large seeds with a high mass possess a greater supply of nutrients, ensuring uniform emergence and the development of a vigorous root system.

The trait is relatively stable; however, it can decrease under the influence of adverse weather conditions during seed filling, mineral nutrition deficiencies, or crop damage by pests and diseases. Heterogeneity of weight within a single seed lot often indicates the presence of shriveled or damaged specimens, which negatively affects field germination.
