SUMMARY

"Carioca", a new dry bean cultivar originally found at Palmital, S.P., is 20% more productive than the varieties "Rosinha G-2" and Bico-de-Ouro", presently the most cultivated ones in São Paulo State. The plants of the new cultivar have indeterminated growth and a cycle of about 90 days. The flowers are white. The pods containing 5.78 seeds each in average are pale yellow at maturation. The seeds are 0.95 cm long, 0.60 cm wide and 0.51 em thick in average, showing a light chestnut color with havana brown stripes, white hilum and yellow halo. Field observations showed that rust, anthracnose, bacterial and virus diseases were more severe on the other varieties than on "Carioca".

Cooking tests showed that "Carioca" bean has excellent culinary properties being the beans very tender and rapidly cooked.
