The researchers studied different types of fresh bean plants to see how their traits are inherited. They crossed five different varieties to create 20 new hybrid plants. They grew these plants in a special greenhouse and measured things like plant height, pod length, and seed yield. They found that some traits were passed down from the parents to the hybrids, while others were a mix of both parents. The researchers also discovered that some traits had low heritability, meaning they were influenced more by the environment than genetics. Overall, they identified which parent plants and hybrids were best for future breeding programs based on their agronomic traits and how they are inherited.
