N2  - Trials were conducted in pots to investigate the response of the three faba bean genotypes, G7l6, L3 and L8 to three water regime treatments, and to study some biochemical genetic markers associated with drought tolerance. The obtained results showed that L3 genotype has the highest growth parameter, yield and yield component under the three irrigation intervals. The highest seed index value (103.6 g) was recorded in L3 genotype under weekly irrigation. Total carbohydrate and protein content of the three genotypes were significantly decreased with increase water deficit. The protein content of L3 genotype was higher than the other two genotypes. Total soluble sugars, proline and total free amino acids content were significantly increased with increasing irrigation intervals. The L3 genotype had the highest values of total soluble sugars and proline content
