... quality characteristics of 5 local bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes (Aydintepe, Mollakoy, Konursu, Yukarikirzi, Suludere) and 2 registered bean varieties (Ala Ciftci, Mispir). During the research, Principle Component Analysis (PCA) was performed on dry bean genotypes. The first principal component had 37.899% of the total variation (PC1). The second principle component (PC2) explained 19.975% of the total variation. The third principle component had 15.906 of the total variation (PC3). The cumulative ratio of the three primary components in total variation was 73.
