Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is a vital legume crop with high nutritional value and significant economic importance worldwide. However, its production is severely constrained by environmental stresses, particularly drought, which is becoming increasingly prevalent due to climate change. Developing faba bean varieties with enhanced drought tolerance is imperative to ensure food security and sustainable agriculture. Marker-assisted breeding (MAB) has emerged as a powerful tool to accelerate the selection process for complex traits like drought tolerance in faba beans. By identifying and utilizing genetic markers linked to drought-responsive genes, MAB enables the efficient selection of desirable characteristics at the molecular level, facilitating the development of drought-tolerant varieties with improved yield stability and resilience under water-limited conditions. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the principles and methodologies involved in marker-assisted breeding for drought tolerance in faba beans. It discusses the identification of molecular markers associated with drought-related traits through various genomic approaches, such as quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Furthermore, it explores integrating genomic information with traditional breeding techniques to enhance the efficiency and precision of selection for drought tolerance. Case studies highlighting successful applications of MAB in faba bean breeding programs across different regions are presented, demonstrating this approach’s practical utility and impact in improving drought resilience and enhancing crop productivity. Overall, this chapter underscores the potential of marker-assisted breeding as a valuable strategy for accelerating the development of drought-tolerant faba bean varieties, thereby contributing to the resilience and sustainability of faba bean production systems in the face of climate change.
