Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium solani, F. oxysporum, and Macrophomina phaseolina were found to be associated with root rott and wilt symptoms of faba bean plants collected from different fieldes in New Valley governorate, Egypt. All the obtained isolates were able to attack faba bean plants (cv. Giza 40) causing damping-off and root rot/wilt diseases. R. solani isolates 2 and 5, F. solani isolate...

in order to study on effect of plant density and nitrogen on yield and yield components of visia faba (faba bean), the experimental design was implemented by randomized complete block with three replications at 2010- 2011 in lahijan. the experimental factors were three plant density (25×25 cm, 35×35 cm and 45×45 cm) and four nitrogen fertilizer (0, 20, 40, 60 kg ha-1). in this experiment, featu...

BACKGROUND Boreal cropping systems are heavily focused on the production of small-grain cereals; to improve their resilience to climate change and to achieve food and feed security, diversification is needed. This study investigated the potential of faba bean, narrow-leafed lupin and lentil as protein crops in southern Finland, where faba bean is traditional but the other two are novel. RESUL...

Experiments were conducted over 2 years to quantify the response of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) to heat stress. Potted winter faba bean plants (cv. Wizard) were exposed to temperature treatments (18/10; 22/14; 26/18; 30/22; 34/26 °C day/night) for 5 days during floral development and anthesis. Developmental stages of all flowers were scored prior to stress, plants were grown in exclusion from ins...

Interspecific facilitation on phosphorus uptake was observed in faba bean/maize intercropping systems in previous studies. The mechanism behind this, however, remained unknown. Under nitrate supply, the difference in rhizosphere acidification potential was studied by directly measuring pH of the solution and by visualizing and quantifying proton efflux of roots between faba bean (Vicia faba L. ...

in order to study the effect of planting date, row spacing and seed rate on grain yield and protein yield of faba bean (vicia faba l.), a split factorial experiment based on the complete randomized block design with three replications was conducted at research station of rice research institute of iran (rasht) during 2008-2010 for two years. experimental treatments were planting date in three l...

eight faba bean genotypes and one local (barkat) as control were evaluated for three successive years (2000-2003) in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications at gorgan agricultural research station. this study was carried out to determine the morphological traits, yield components and yield stability to select the best genotypes. simple and combined analysis of variance ...
