Evaluation of faba bean genotypes in normal and drought stress conditions by tolerance and susceptibility indices

In the ۲۰۱۷-۲۰۱۸ growing season, two separate experiments were conducted in Iran in a randomized block experiment with three replicates and under two irrigation conditions. Genotypes G۲, G۸, G۵ and G۷ with the highest seed yield under both conditions were classified in group A. Genotypes G۷, G۸ and G۲ were the drought tolerant and superior genotypes based on the indices MP, GM, STI, YI, YSI, HM, RDI, DI, SNPI, MRP, REI, MSTIK۱ and MSTIK۲. Genotypes G۲, G۸, and G۷ with the lowest average sum of ranks (ASR) were tolerant genotypes. Yp had a positive significant correlation with TOL, MP, GMP, STI, HM, ATI, SSPI, MRP, REI, MSTIK۱, MSTIK۲, Ynorm, and Z. Cluster analysis also identified genotypes G۲, G۸, G۵, and G۷ with the highest tolerance to drought stress. The stress tolerance index (STI), modified stress tolerance index K۱ (MSTIK۱), and average sum of ranks (ASR) were more useful to select favorable field bean genotypes under dryland and irrigated conditions. Using these three indices, genotype G۷ was found to be the most tolerant genotype to drought stress. Moreover, this study proposed a new idea for evaluating the stress tolerance and susceptibility of genotypes by using standardized and normalized yield data under stress and normal conditions based on the range of variation and standard deviation, and verified these values in current data and other data of ۱۸ rice genotypes. Moreover, the present study recommended the application of this idea to other data sets and verified its advantages.
