Abstract
A study of 8 promising lines (from G1-G8) and 4 varieties (Misr1, Giza 843, Roomy, and Peter15) of faba bean genotypes. Was carried out at Sakha Agricultural Research Station, ARC, Kafr El-Shikh Governorate during the winter seasons of 2017/2018 and 2018/2019. Agro- morphological variability based on the internationally recognized descriptors of the International Union for Protection of new Varieties (UPOV, 2015) was used to characterize these genotypes. The results showed that G1 had broad leaflet, two pods/ node, strong curved pod and highest weight of 100 seeds. The angle between pod and the main axis in G2 was perpendicular. Narrow leaflet and pod curvature was absent in G4. Flower ground color was light purple, strong curved pod in G5. Strong intensity of stem anthocyanin coloration in G6, with beige ground flower color and with angles on its dry seed shape. Misr1 recorded the shortest genotype. G8 identified with longest leaflet and was the highest genotype. Each pod and seed of Roomy genotype had the maximum length and width with elongated flattened seed shape. Giza 843 was ovate leaflet shape. Peter15 had two pods/node but ranked the short pods, lowest 100 seed weight short and narrow seed. The morphological variation of these genotypes was useful and can allow breeders identify faba bean plants with desirable characteristics that can be used in breeding programs.
