produced larger nuts than other varieties, with the nut height to nut width ratio of 1.08 ± 0.03, a hilum length to nut width ratio of 1.15 ± 0.06, 0.0% polyembryonic nuts, 0.13% pericarp splitting, and weak degree of penetration of the seedcoat into the
≈24 Sept. ‘Jahong’ has short and dense burrs, dark brown nuts, a rounded triangular shape, a nut height-to-nut width ratio of 0.86, and a hilum length-to-nut width ratio of 0.59. So, the nuts from ‘Jahong’ can be distinguished from those of other
and beige with dark brown spots near and around the hilum at harvest. The average 100 mature seed weight is 14.6 g compared with ICPL 86012, which had a lower weight of 13 g, and 13KPP-264-05 and ‘Lázaro’, which had higher seed weights of 17.3 g
seed color, closed hilum and/or micropyle, presence of water gaps in the lens, and cracks in the seedcoat cuticle have all been associated with differences between hard and soft seed in terms of water permeability (Smýkal et al., 2014 ). In general

might be present in OSU5446. Flower color (white for OSU5446 and purple for RR6950) indicated the presence of V in RR6950. RR6950 seed were shiny ( JJ ) and possessed a hilum ring ( DD ). OSU5446 had shiny seed but p masked hilum ring color. No

developed based on simple Mendelian genetic models. They have also been used to describe many other traits in faba bean such as hilum color, seedcoat color, flower color, pigmentation and dwarfism ( Khazaei et al., 2014 ; O’Sullivan and Angra, 2016
