Claim · model-written summary
The authors explain the yield increase through fewer and lighter O. foetida attachments and a slight reduction in Najeh shoot dry weight.

e0“This can be explained by the reduced number and dry weight of O. foetida attachments and a slight decrease in shoot dry weight of the resistant cultivar.”
e1“Seed yield increased significantly on late sowing especially for the resistant Najeh cultivar”
e2“faba bean cultivars”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Late sowing significantly reduced emerged O. foetida shoot number in resistant Najeh.
- Intervention effect Late sowing significantly reduced emerged O. foetida shoot dry weight in Najeh.
- Intervention effect Late sowing did not significantly reduce emerged O. foetida shoots in Badi.
- Intervention effect December sowing reduced underground tubercle number in both cultivars.
- Observation With December sowing, attachments emerged on Badi but not Najeh, indicating delayed parasite growth on Najeh.
- Intervention effect Late sowing significantly increased faba bean seed yield.
- Observation Najeh produced much higher seed yield than Badi.
- Recommendation The authors recommend combining resistance and late sowing to control O. foetida in Tunisia.
