- Abstract
An experiment was conducted in the field of Horticulture Department, College of Agriculture, University of Baghdad to investigate the influence of Vernalization periods on vegetative characters, early and total yield components in broad bean. The experiment included three ranges of temperature (0, 5, 7 and room temperature 25 °C ) and three exposure periods (5, 15 and 25 days ). Randomized Complete Blocks Design was used with three replicates. The result showed that vernalized seeds of broad bean at 5°C for 15 days increased significantly plant height to 86.80 cm.plant-1, number of branches 14.66, dry weight of plant 115.48g and earliness in flowering which lead to significantly increasing in yield and its components while the control treatment showed the lowest values where gave 22.00 pods plant-1, 212.52 g plant-1 and early yield 3.14 ton.ha-1 and total yield 7.48 ton.ha-1.
