ABSTRACT

Large-seeded (45 g 100 seed weight^–1), high-yielding, and high-quality Hungerford (Reg. No. CV-285, PI 653258) and Sawtooth (Reg. No. CV-286, PI 653259) great northern dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars were developed at the University of Idaho-Kimberly Agricultural Research and Extension Center. The Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station released Hungerford and Sawtooth on 12 Apr. 2007. Hungerford and Sawtooth are full-season (95–100 d maturity) cultivars adapted to the western United States that have resistance to Bean common mosaic virus (an aphid-vectored potyvirus) and rust [caused by Uromyces appendiculatus (Pers.) Ung.]. Both also have moderate to high levels of resistance to heat, drought, and soil zinc deficiency and manganese toxicity.
