An experiment was conducted at Dijon, France and Saskatoon, Canada to determine if apex excision or flower removal had an effect on ovule fertilization. Two lines of faba beans, cvs. Strube and 370, showed no effect of apex excision or flower removal on the frequency of ovule fertilization. The fertilization frequency, which averaged 55% for the experiment, was 10% higher at Dijon than Saskatoon and 30% higher in Strube than 370. Young-pod number, pod number, seed number and seed yield were all greater at Dijon. The abortion of fertilized flowers was high for all treatments and lines but particularly so in Strube with no flower removal. The data indicated that abortion was occurring at the pod level and not the seed level, suggesting that the average number of seeds per pod could be increased if the ovule fertilization frequency per flower could be improved.Key words: Vicia faba, fertilization frequency, fertility components, apex excision.

Faba beans (Vicia faba L.), also known as fava beans, like other crops, are influenced by several factors: their genotype, environment, and management, as well as the interaction between these, have an important impact on seed yielding and seed quality traits. This study was conducted at three locations in South Italy between 2017 and 2019 to evaluate the sowing date effect on yield and yield components of three Vicia faba L., originating from cool climates. The results showed that seed yield (SY) and yield components declined with sowing delay. The crop’s environment (year × site) and management (sowing date) were found to explain 34.01% and 42.95% of the total seed yield variation, respectively. The data showed that the tested genotypes were positively influenced by the environment with sandy loam soil and early winter sowing date, resulting in either a greater number of SY and THS than in the other environment. The three faba bean genotypes showed tolerance to winter frost conditions in the two growing seasons.
