“…Our essay is the first research work carried out in Algeria on this topic, that it is based on the research of the sources of resistance of seven (07) varieties of faba bean (Giza 02, Giza 40, Sakha 01, Sakha 02, Sakha 03, Ziban and Precoce of Seville), against the chocolate spot disease caused by Botrytis fabae Sard. A similar study was carried out in Spain by Madeira et al (1993) and Sillero and Rubiales (2014), in Poland by Goral and Walentyn-Goral, 2012 and in Morocco by Bouhassan et al 2004b. A significant difference was observed in the reaction of faba bean varieties against two strains of Botrytis fabae, by 04 susceptible varieties (Giza02, Sakha01, Sakha02 and Sakha03), two tolerant varieties (Giza40 and Ziban) and only one resistant variety (Precoce de Seville). This difference has been reported in some studies around the world with other faba bean cultivars (Villegas-Fernandez et al, 2012;Wolde and Mitiku, 2018;Abd-Rabh et al, 2013;Bouhassan et al, 2004a,b;Terefe et al, 2015).…”
