Diversity in root growth responses to moisture deficit in young faba bean (Vicia faba L.) plants
TL;DR: The combination of the germplasm survey and use of GROWSCREEN-Rhizo allowed exploring of adaptive traits and detection of root phenotypic markers for potential drought avoidance and the greater root system depth and root surface coverage, exemplified by DS70622 and DS11320, can now be tested as new sources of drought tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Screening of faba bean ( Vicia faba L.) accessions to acidity and aluminium stresses.
TL;DR: The apparent independence of the responses to acidity and aluminium is in agreement with the previous research findings, suggesting that crop accessions separately adapt to H+ and Al3+ toxicity as a result of the difference in the nature of soil parent materials where the accession originated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological and Biochemical Basis of Faba Bean Breeding for Drought Adaptation—A Review
Abdul Muktadir,Kedar Adhikari,Andrew Merchant,Kiflemariam Yehuala Belachew,Albert Vandenberg,Frederick L. Stoddard,Hamid Khazaei +6 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on the current knowledge of biochemical and physiological markers for legume improvement that can be incorporated into faba bean breeding programs for drought adaptation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of Shoot and Root Responses to Water Deficit in Young Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.) Plants
Kiflemariam Yehuala Belachew,Kerstin A. Nagel,Hendrik Poorter,Hendrik Poorter,Frederick L. Stoddard +4 more
TL;DR: French accession Mélodie/2 was susceptible to drought in the vegetative phase, in contrast to previous results from the flowering phase, showing the importance of timing of drought stress on the measured response.
