Abstract

High temperature stress lowers bean yield and quality. This work aimed to determine the yield response of four bean cultivars, two of P. vulgaris (Granada and Rarámuri) and two of P. acutifolius (TARS-Tep 23 and Alubia Choix) grown under irrigation, to the application of Boron and Magnesium under field conditions with naturally high temperatures. Four foliar fertilization treatments were administered on three occasions (one in pre- and two during flowering) B, Mg, B + Mg and a control group without fertilization. The trial was carried out in 2020 and 2021. Aerial biomass, weight of 100 seeds, yield and the harvest index were quantified. Germination and vigor of harvested seeds were determined for each treatment and cultivar. On average, P. vulgaris was superior (P ≤ 0.05) to P. acutifolius in 100-seed weight and seed yield. The Rarámuri cultivar showed greater yield, biomass, and 100-seed weight. The foliar fertilization treatments surpassed the control group, with an average increase of 0.4 g in 100-seed weight and 512 kg/ha in yield. Foliar Mg application increased yield and 100-seed weight in both species and varieties evaluated.
