A complex landscape of anthracnose resistance genes (Co-) located at the telomeric regions of the bean chromosomes Pv01 and Pv04 has been reported. The aim of this work was to investigate the genetic and physical positions of genes conferring resistance to races 6, 38, 39, 357, 65, and 73 as well as the relationships among the resistance genes identified herein and the previously described Co- genes in these telomeric regions. The linkage analysis using a genetic map of 497 SNPs from the recombinant inbred line population Xana/BAT93 revealed that the gene conferring resistance to race 65 in cultivar Xana (Co-165-X) was located in the Co-1 cluster, at the distal end of chromosome Pv01. The fine mapping of Co-165-X indicated that it was positioned between the physical positions 49,512,545 and 49,658,821 bp. This delimited physical position agrees with the positions of the previously mapped genes Co- 14, Co-x, Co-14, Co-1HY, and Co-Pa. Responses to races 6, 38, 39, and 357 in BAT93 exhibited co-segregation suggesting that the same gene, or very closely linked genes, were involved in the control. The linkage analysis showed that the resistance gene to race 38 in the genotype BAT93 (Co-338-B) was located at the beginning of chromosome Pv04, in the genetic position of the Co-3 cluster, and was flanked by markers with physical positions between 1,286,490 and 2,047,754 bp. Thus, the genes Co-3, Co-9, Co-10, Co-16, and Co-338-B, found in this work, form part of the same anthracnose resistance cluster at the beginning of chromosome Pv04, which is consistent with the discontinuous distribution of typical R genes annotated in the underlying genomic region. Resistance loci involved in the response to race 73 in the genotypes Xana (R) and BAT93 (R) were mapped to the same positions on clusters Co-1 and Co-3, respectively. The positioning of the resistance genes in the bean genome based on fine linkage mapping should play an important role in the characterization and differentiation of the anthracnose resistance genes. The assignment of Co- genes to clusters of race specific genes can help simplify the current scenario of anthracnose resistance.
