Runner bean (Phaseolus coccineus L.) is traditionally cultivated in Poland for dry seeds. The national collection of runner bean maintained in the National Center for Plant Genetic Resources gathers 152 accessions, which are mainly landraces originated in Poland (68%), Ukraine (17%) and Slovakia (10%). The collection contains valuable genetic resources for bean breeders and research. The aim of this study was to describe the level and structure of genetic diversity of three landraces and two commercial cultivars of runner bean from the national collection in order to assess their genetic potential for breeding. Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism analysis included five combinations of selective primers. Analysis of seven genetic diversity parameters reveled fair amount of genetic variation both in landraces and cultivars. High genetic diversity of commercial cultivars relative those of landraces suggests that the breeding process leading to their release was rather moderate and most likely included domestic gene pool of runner bean. Low gene diversity and low Nei’s genetic distance values as well as intergradations among accessions in the PCoA may indicate reduced variability P. coccineus grown in Poland as a result of its migration pathways.
