“…El-Karouri (1979) studied the effect of soil salinity on growth and yield of a local Sudanese cultivar and Effect of temperature on ovule fertilization frequency (%) in inbred and hybred flowers after 24 h and 36 h incubation found it to have medium tolerance . This disagreed with the earlier findings of Ayers & Eberhard (1960) who classified faba beans as having low salt tolerance .…”

Progress is being made, mainly by ICARDA but also elsewhere, in breeding for resistance to Botrytis, Ascochyta, Uromyces, and Orobanche ; and some lines have resistance to more than one pathogen . The strategy is to extend multiple resistance but also to seek new and durable forms of resistance . Internationally coordinated programs are needed to maintain the momentum of this work .Tolerance of abiotic stresses leads to types suited to dry or cold environments rather than broad adaptability, but in this cross-pollinated species, the more hybrid vigor expressed by a cultivar, the more it is likely to tolerate various stresses .

“…Toxicity symptoms of salinity have been described for chickpea (Saxena, 1987 ;Chandra, 1980) and faba bean (El-Karouri, 1979) . A rating scale of 1 to 5 (van Rheenen & Sethi, 1990) or 1 to 9 (Saxena, 1987) has been used in field screening of chickpea on naturally occurring saline fields .…”

“…The threshold salinity level (EC at which reductions in growth and yield commence) is considered an important index for salt-sensitive crops such as chickpea . EC or EC e at which 50% reduction in shoot mass or seed yield occurs also has been used as a selection criterion in chickpea (Chandra, 1980 ;Saxena, 1987 ;Johansen et al, 1990) and faba bean (El-Karouri, 1979) .…”

“…Natural heterogeneous distribution of salinity has been exploited to screen faba bean (El-Karouri, 1979) and chickpea (Saxena, 1987 ;Van Rheenen & Sethi, 1990) genotypes . While Van Rheenen & Sethi (1990) used visual scores, seed number and seed yield of test and control cultivars (dibbled in a common hole) for computing tolerance indices, El-Karouri (1979) and Saxena (1987) quantified salinity of the test spots, selected on the basis of visual differences, and related it with growth and yield reductions .…”

A large global land area is affected by saline, alkali (sodic), and acid soil conditions . Cool season food legumes are important crops in many countries with such adverse soils . Tolerant genotypes have been identified in many crops, including legumes. However, very little has been published on selection of tolerant cool season food legume crops . The inadequate knowledge and understanding of the responses of cool season food legume crops to these abiotic stresses, necessitates action by a collaborative network of interdisciplinary teams to make rapid progress in identifying tolerant germplasm and developing cultivars better adapted to unfavorable soil conditions .

“…It is considered to be one of the most important grain legume crops in Syria. Faba bean is a moderately salt-tolerant plant species, with a yield decrease of 50% at soil electrical conductivity (EC) values ranging between 9 and 11 dS m -1 (Lockerman et al, 1983;El-Karouri, 1970). Other studies demonstrated that the dry matter production and nodulation in faba bean decreased when irrigated with saline effluent containing an EC of 10 dS m -1 (Ban-Uelos et al, 2002).…”

A pot experiment was conducted to study the performance of faba bean and barley growing under saline conditions, in terms of dry matter yield, total N, and percentages and amount of N derived from the soil, fertilizer and atmosphere using a 15 N isotope dilution method. Three saline treatments were employed: 1) plants were grown on saline soil and irrigated with saline water (SsWs); 2) plants were grown on saline soil and irrigated with non-saline water (SsWn); and 3) plants were grown on non-saline soil and irrigated with saline water (SnWs). Furthermore, a control treatment was employed by growing the plants on non-saline soil and irrigating them with non-saline water (SnWn). The different salinity treatments reduced plant growth and the reduction was more pronounced in faba bean than in barley. However, the relative growth reduction of plants grown only on saline soil, using non-saline water, did not exceed 50% of the control, whereas the reduction exceeded 50% when plants were grown under completely saline conditions. The percentage of N 2 fixed (%Ndfa) was not affected negatively by saline conditions. The results clearly demonstrated that the effect of salinity on faba bean was more evident on plant growth than on N 2 -fixing activity. Further studies are needed to obtain more salttolerant faba bean genotypes that possess a higher growth rate. This could simultaneously improve yield and N 2 fixation under severely saline conditions.
