Description:
Derived from a single plant selection in 1988 from a segregating experimental line obtained from CIAT, Cali, Colombia. The original line designation was not correctly registered in the field book, consequently the pedigree is not known. The single plant selection was planted to a plant-row in 1989 at Fruita, Colordo. The seed produced from this row was bulked and increased for initial yield testing at Fort Collins, CO. From the bulk seed, forty single plants were grown in plant-rows. Among the 40 plant rows, 22 were selected on the basis of uniformity for growth habit, harvest maturity, pod load and seed characteristics and harvested to form the initial breeder seed and used for subsequent testing.
