Common bean breeding programs for white mold (WM) resistance are in their initial stages Brazil. Sources of partial to WM available abroad but performance Brazil is unknown. In two greenhouse (straw test) and three field experiments conducted districts the state Minas Gerais, Brazil, we evaluated a total 23 lines with putative objective select other diseases associated high yield potential. Two field-resistant local lines, susceptible cultivars, international were also included study. greenhouse, Cornell 605, A 195, G122 among highest WM. field, these highly resistant had intermediate or anthracnose, angular leaf spot, rust, Fusarium wilt. 605 195 high-yield potential yielded 47% less than under pressure. Our results suggest that most useful sources use common
