The Potential Genetic Effect for Yield and Foliar Disease Resistance in Faba Bean ( L.) Assessed via Morphological and SCoT Markers.

Faba bean is considered one of the most prominent grain legumes, with high protein content for human food consumption and livestock feed. The present study evaluated the nature of gene action and determined the genetic diversity among different populations of three crosses for resistance to foliar diseases at the molecular level. Analysis of variance exposed significant differences among the generations for all measured traits.
