Anti-quality components in faba bean seeds (Vicia faba) as affected by microenvironmental changes in the canopy
1989
El-Kareh, W.
A field experiment was conducted at AREC to determine the effects of microenvironmental changes on seed quality and yield of faba beans. Simple correlation coefficients between glucoside percentages in green seeds and yield and primary yield components were highly significant and negative at the third planting date, but non significant at the first two dates. The correlation coefficients between the same variables were negative at three row spacings. Path analysis was carried out to determine direct and indirect effects on the basis of some significant correlation coefficients and path diagrams hypothesizing causal relations. The number of pods per plant had the largest direct negative effect on glucoside percentages in green seeds
