The research was carried out at Al Qardaha and Banias regions in the Syrian coast,
according to the randomized complete block design RCBD, with three replicates,
during the season (20162017/). The effect of site on plant growth, development
and pr
oductivity traits of faba bean hybrid (Super Simonia) have been studied by
measuring some of phenological traits (days from planting to germination, and days
from planting to flowering), vegetative growth and productivity parameters (number
of branches pods/plant, number of seed/pod and 100 seeds weight) and seed total
protein content (%). The results showed a significant difference in the response of
Super Simonia hybrid in growth and development traits under two sites (Al Qardaha
and Banias) conditions, and the plants in Banias site were significantly superior in
most of the studied parameters. The research concluded to greater compatibility
when Italian faba bean hybrid (Super Simonia) was cultivated under Banias site
conditions as compared to Al Qardaha site, according to that the faba hybrid could
be planted in Banias region and other areas which have similar environmental
conditions.
