Grain productivity and quality of Common beans can be compromised in the event of rainfall during the harvest phase. The objective was to evaluate the productive yield and the quality of grains in common bean genotypes by stratification in different pod maturation patterns. The work was carried out between harvest of the waters in two environments of altitude, being 174 and 733 meters. The experimental design was in randomized blocks with 15 treatments and four replications. Flowering, physiological maturity, cycle, productivity and pod maturation pattern were evaluated in each genotype. The data were subjected to joint analysis of variance and comparison of means using the Scott-Knott test at 5% probability. For the two cultivation environments, the genotypes Palhaço Vermelho, Terrão NM, Roxinho AV and Cimentão DP showed higher maturity regularity. The genotypes Palhaço Vermelho, Nova Planta and Capixaba Prematura expressed the highest average productivity simultaneously in the lowest and highest altitude environment, together with the genotype Vermelho JV showed the highest percentages in sieve yields in both environments. Falso Terrinha was the genotype that showed the lowest sieve yields in both cultivation environments.
