Faba bean ( Vicia faba L.) has great potential to contribute to sustainable agriculture and protein security globally but is known to be very sensitive to drought stress. Uncovering drought-adapted germplasm is critical for developing resilient cultivars and advancing our understanding of the mechanisms underlying stress adaptation. However, high-throughput plant phenotyping under stress conditions remain a major bottleneck in crop genetics and breeding programs. In this study, a multi-sensor indoor phenotyping platform was used to assess 44 faba bean genotypes under water deficit conditions. Standardized, monitored stress conditions were achieved by watering-by-weighing for drought onset, duration, and intensities allowing genotype-level comparisons. The genotypes showed a range of stress responses in growth and physiology, including traits such as plant height, biomass, water use efficiency (WUE), and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters. Digital biomass, derived from combined top- and side-view plant imaging, was strongly correlated with biological biomass at the experimental endpoint, validating its use as a non-destructive proxy for growth assessment in faba bean. Time-resolved generalized additive modelling further revealed genotype-specific differences in the timing and magnitude of water deficit response. Genotypes that maintained growth and WUE under water deficit conditions may serve as valuable pre-breeding materials for development of drought-adapted faba bean.

Løk trenger god tilgang på vann gjennom nesten hele vekstperioden. Vanntilgangen ved dyrking av løk er spesielt viktig i første halvdel av vekstperioden. Følsomheten er størst i perioden når løken har 3–7 blad. For lite vann i denne perioden kan gi stort avlingstap og mindre løkstørrelse. Det er også viktig med god vanntilgang etter at løkdanningen er i gang for å sikre god løkstørrelse og avling. En grønnsakprodusent med begrenset vanningskapasitet bør gi høy prioritet til vanning av løk på forsommeren.
