Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) Algerian accessions represent an essential source of traits interest for crop improvement, especially tackling climate change, because their genetic background and potential have not been well studied. The purpose this research was to assess the variability 14 by means 10 agro-morphological 7 simple sequence repeat markers (SSRs). ANOVA analysis showed a large signific...

Isolated guard cells, prepared by sonication of epidermal peels, were used to investigate the endogenous level of abscisic acid (ABA) in the guard cells of turgid and stressed leaves of Vicia faba L. and the argenteum (arg) mutant of Pisum sativum L. The guard cells of V. faba and arg were found to contain 18 and 8 times more ABA, respectively, when isolated from stressed leaves than from turgi...

The faba bean (Vicia L.) is cultivated in the Mediterranean and Aegean regions only. It a rich source of protein an important food feed for human animal consumption. Faba beans have narrow genetic base their improvement through hybridization not feasible because high pollen self-incompatibility. This study was carried out using embryonic axis cv. Filiz99 Eresen87 regenerated on MS medium contai...
