Various biotic, abiotic and socio-economic factors negatively affect the productivity of the crop. Among these, a new disease known as Faba bean galls (Olpidium viciae) has become a serious threat to faba bean production and productivity in highland areas of central and northern Ethiopia. Thus, field experiment was conducted in Lay Gorebela and Mush to assess the efficacies of fungicides for the management of faba bean gall under natural infection. Six fungicides were evaluated alongside control in randomized complete block design in three replications. Fungicides showed different levels of efficiency at both locations in both seasons. In 2014/15, the highest percent severity index and area under disease progress curve were calculated from control plots at both locations. At Lay Gorebela, higher grain yields were recorded from Metalaxyl 8% + Mancozeb 64% WP and Triadimefon 250 g/L sprayed plots whereas plots sprayed with Metalaxyl 8% + Mancozeb 64% WP gave higher yield at Mush. Similar trends in percent severity index and grain yield were observed with control treatment in 2015/16. Percent severity index and area under disease progress curve were negatively correlated with grain yield and positively correlated with each other at both locations and seasons. Partial budget analysis indicated as Triadimefon 250 g/L and Metalaxyl 8% + Mancozeb 64% WP were cost-effective. The chemical treatment could be used as a short-term control strategy, and a component in integrated management of faba bean galls

The experiment was conducted to assess the integrated effects of pre-emergence herbicides and hand-weeding on weed control, yield components, yield, and their economic feasibility for cost effective weed control in faba bean. The experiment consisted of 12 treatments viz. pre-emergence s-metolachlor (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kg ha-1) and pendimethalin (1.0, 1.25 and 1.5 kg ha-1), each at three rates metolachlor, s-metolachlor + one-hand-weeding, pendimethalin + one-hand-weeding, two-hand-weeding, complete weed free and weedy checks arranged. The weed flora consisted of broadleaved and sedge with the relative densities of 81.02 and 18.98 % at Haramaya district, and 80.83% and 19.17%, at Gurawa district, respectively. Application of s-metolachlor and pendimethalin 1.0 kg ha-1 each supplemented with hand weeding 5 WAE significantly (p ≤0.01) affected the broadleaved weeds, sedges and weed dry weight at both sites. S-metolachlor 1.0 kg ha-1 supplemented with hand weeding 5 WAE gave the lowest total number of weeds (8.29 m-2) following the weed free check. Higher grain yield (3555.8 kg ha-1) was produced with s-metolachlor 1.0 kg ha-1 supplemented with one-hand-weeding 5 WAE following complete weed-free at Gurawa. The benefit gained from s-metolachlor and pendimethalin at 1.0 kg ha-1 each supplemented with one hand weeding 5 WAE were greater than the value recorded from the weedy check by 216% and 198 %, respectively. S-metolachlor 1.0 kg ha-1 supplemented with hand weeding 5 WAE treatment resulted in the highest grain yield and economic benefit. However, in case labour is constraint and s-metolachlor herbicide is timely available, pre emergence application of s-metolachlor at 2.0 kg ha-1 should be the alternative to preclude the yield loss and to ensure maximum benefit.

Tıbbi bitki Raphanus sativus L. yumru kökünün su, etanol ve metanol ekstraktlarının Vicia faba L. (bakla) yapraklarında Botrytis cinerea fungusunun oluşturacağı kurşuni küf hastalığına karşı toplam protein içeriği ve peroksidaz (POX) aktivitesi bakımından bitkide meydana getirebileceği antioksidan savunma sistemi spektrofotometrik olarak analiz edilmiştir. R. sativus yumru kökünün su, etanol ve metanol ekstraktlarının stok solüsyonları dimetil sülfoksit (DMSO) ile hazırlanmıştır. 105 spor/mL B. cinerea spor süspansiyonu hazırlanmıştır. V. faba yapraklarına sadece distile su (negatif kontrol), sadece DMSO, sadece B. cinerea (pozitif kontrol), sadece ekstrakt uygulamaları (distile su, etanol ve metanol ekstraktı) ve ekstrakt uygulamaları sonrasında B. cinerea uygulaması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapraklar, analizi yapılacak olan yöntemlere uygun olarak ekstrakte edilmiştir. Ekstraktlardan elde edilen süpernatantlardan analizler spektrofotometrik olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, toplam protein içeriğinin distile su uygulanan (negatif kontrol) gruba kıyasla ekstrakt:fungus uygulama gruplarında artış gösterdiği saptanmıştır. Fakat sadece fungus uygulanan (pozitif kontrol) gruba kıyasla genel olarak azaldığı belirlenmiştir. POX aktivitesinin ise, negatif kontrol grubuna kıyasla artış gösterdiği saptanmıştır. Toplam protein içeriği ve POX aktivitesi, sadece ekstrakt uygulanan gruplarda negatif kontrol grubuna göre artış göstermiştir. En yüksek POX aktivitesi, 10 mg/mL distile su:fungus uygulamasından elde edilmiştir. Bu açıdan, ekstrakt:fungus uygulanan gruplar arasında en iyi antioksidan aktivitenin 10 mg/mL distile su:fungus uygulaması olduğu belirtilebilmektedir. Bu açıdan bakıldığında, R. sativus saf su, etanol ve metanol ekstraktlarının V. faba yapraklarında antioksidan savunma yanıtı verdiği belirtilebilmektedir.

The present study was conducted to determine the seed morphologies and macromorphological characteristics of fifteen local faba bean (Vicia faba L.) genotypes collected from different region of Northern Cyprus. The characteristics in the seeds were evaluated using a light microscope (LM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). SEM pictures were taken of the whole seed and its details. The scope of the research was examined comparatively using LM and SEM, and the seed shapes, surface ornamentation, and quantitative measurements were determined. Different characteristics for seed size and surface were found among the local faba beans accessions. Seed dimensions were between 12.44 and 24.26 mm long and between 9.49 and 17.45 mm wide, colors ranged from yellowish-brown to dark brown, and ornamentation of the seed coat varied. The local faba bean seeds were of subprolate and prolate types. We believe that using this technique to determine the differences among the seeds of different genotypes may play a role in helping to create different programs that can choose specific genotypes to improve cultivars based on the seed characteristics.

Many allelopathic crops are cultivated in agricultural fields, and these plants can influence the growth of other plants in the cultivation environment with their phytotoxic compounds. One of these plants is the faba bean. In this study conducted under the ecological conditions of Sakarya/Arifiye, the allelopathic effects of Eresen-87, Salkim, Bilecik, and Sakarya faba bean genotypes on weeds such as Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense L.), curly dock (Rumex crispus L.), purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.), and wild mustard (Sinapis arvensis L.) were investigated. Weed seeds used in the experiment were collected from agricultural fields in the Sakarya province. Extracts from dried plant parts of faba bean genotypes were prepared and applied to petri dishes containing weed seeds at concentrations of 5% and 10%, with four replications. At the end of the research, it was observed that all faba bean genotypes at all application doses caused a decrease in germination rate (%), root length (cm), and shoot length (cm) parameters in the four weed species tested. The best results were determined as Eresen-87 and Bilecik at 10% concentration. When the activities of fresh and dry extracts of faba bean genotypes was compared, it was determined that dry application had a higher allelopathic effect.
