As result of this study could be established the most distinctive characteristics of each considered lines. In general, the most notable’s characteristics were registered between DI - 5 and DI - 9 lines and between theses and the rest. The most distinguish characters of the DI - 5 line were: growing habit semi erect; covert of grain with smooth aspect; high production of pod and grain per plant; small grain and a high yield expressed in grain per plant. The main characteristics of the DI - 5 line were: growing habit semi erect; grain of cream colour and rugs covert; a few number a pod and grain per plant and therefore a poor yield despite of produced grain of a high calibre. On the other hands, the lines rest showed characteristics intermediate with gradual differences between them. With a large growing cycle of harvest was distinguished the D - 19 Line (120 - 130 days).
