In a study on the association of the available variation in the testa fraction, hard seed percentage, protein content, tannic acid percent, and 100-seed weight was conducted. The analysis of 10 breeding lines of faba bean, grown at four locations in the new production areas of faba bean in south of Khartoum, the Sudan during the 1986/87 season, revealed significant differences in 100-seed weight, hard seed, and tannic acid content due to lines and locations. The breeding lines were inconsistent in their performance according to the measured characters from one location to another. The testa fraction showed a significant positive correlation with hard-seed percent (r=0.63), and positive but not significant correlation with protein content (r=0.54)
