  We compute the quantum cohomology rings of the partial flag manifolds
F_{n_1\cdots n_k}=U(n)/(U(n_1)\times \cdots \times U(n_k)). The inductive
computation uses the idea of Givental and Kim. Also we define a notion of the
vertical quantum cohomology ring of the algebraic bundle. For the flag bundle
F_{n_1\cdots n_k}(E) associated with the vector bundle E this ring is found.
