A field experiment was established over three rainy seasons (2011, 2012 and 2013) at two
locations (Shaban and Al-Qaidah) which represented the severe (SDS) and moderate (MDS)
drought stress in the southern highlands of Yemen-Ibb. The experiment was arranged in a split
plot design with three replication. The main plots were: untreated or treated seeds with 0.5 mM
salicylic acid (SA), the subplot were nine CIAT bean lines and three local cultivars. The results
revealed that salicylic acid improved significantly the yield and yield traits of some
genotypes. Accordingly, under severe drought stress, the bean genotypes categorized
into three groups; The first group (MIB-156, MIB-156, G23818B and NSL) which were high
yielding and low responsiveness genotypes to SA group (HY-LSAR); The second group
(BFB-139, BFB-140 and BFB-141) that perform low yielding and high responsiveness
genotypes to SA (LY-HSAR) and the third group (Taiz-304, Taiz-5 and Taiz-306) that perform
low yielding and low responsiveness genotypes to SA group (LY-LSAR). It is concluded
that the physiological mechanism of bean cultivars response of the high tolerant lines
(LY-HSAR) and the medium tolerant lines to drought (LY-HSAR) to SA was similar by
causing significant increase in dry matter accumulation, photosynthetic pigments content
of leaves and accumulation of high proline content, total soluble sugars, total free amino
acids, and soluble proteins, and also by maintain high relative water content (RWC%) and
low leaf ion leakage (LIL%) in comparison to susceptible cultivars to drought (LY-LSAR).
Key words: Soluble proteins, proline content, photosynthetic pigments, (RWC%), (LIL%),
INTRODUCTION
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is considered one
of the most important grains for human alimentation and
is worldwide planted on approximately 12 million hectares
and is sensitive to severe environmental stress situations,
such as heat and water deficiency (Bajji et al. 2001, Parry
et al. 2002).
This fact must be analyzed in depth, since more than half
of the worldwide common bean production is grown in
regions of occurrence of water deficit (Souza et al. 2003).
