Abstract

Aim. To study, analyze, and evaluate collection accessions of the lupine gene pool for valuable agronomic traits under the conditions of the Polissia of Ukraine. To identify the most valuable forms for the development of trait-specific and working collections, and for the effective use of sources of useful traits in breeding programs aimed at creating new high-yielding, early-maturing, and adaptive lupine varieties.

Results and Discussion. During 2021–2025, studies were conducted on 307 collection accessions of yellow lupine (L. luteus L.), white lupine (L. albus L.), and narrow-leafed lupine (L. angustifolius L.) to evaluate valuable agronomic traits such as early maturity, high seed productivity, high seed protein content, and resistance to major diseases. Eighteen white lupine, thirteen narrow-leafed lupine, and twenty-six yellow lupine accessions were identified and recommended for use in breeding as sources of early maturity. Thirty sources of high seed productivity were identified, including nine narrow-leafed lupine, eleven yellow lupine, and ten white lupine accessions, which significantly exceeded standard varieties in seed weight per plant by 15–74%. Additionally, forty-three lupine accessions were identified as having the highest seed protein content (35.0–44.5%) compared to others.

Conclusions. As a result of studying 307 lupine collection accessions, sources of early maturity, high seed productivity, resistance to fusariose and anthracnose, and high seed protein content were identified. Based on the generalization and analysis of the results, a working collection of the narrow-leafed lupine gene pool was formed, comprising 44 accessions and containing information on sources of valuable traits selected according to the environmental conditions of the Polissia zone of Ukraine and modern breeding trends. A catalog has been prepared presenting the characteristics of 75 white lupine accessions in terms of early maturity, seed productivity, green biomass yield, plant height, and disease resistance. The database of the trait-specific lupine collection (сertificate No. 57, dated 23.12.2008) has been updated.
