For a targeted search of initial breeding material for the quality soybean seeds, it is necessary to know patterns dependence corresponding seed characters on weather and climatic conditions in particular region. Global change, concretization which relevant, has share this dependence. Thus, aim work was identify relationship between variability protein oil content seeds with parameters North Caucasus as well trends over long time period. The study 1 442 accessions from VIR collection...

In view of climate change and the active extension soybean cultivation in Russia, identification yield-limiting factors has become a relevant task. The objective this study was to identify climatic associated with variation productivity under contrasting eco-geographical conditions Krasnodar (KR) Primorye (PR) territories Russia. An analysis 424 varieties from global collection N.I. Vavilov Institute (VIR) at experimental stations KR PR 1987–2005 showed that yields were higher time maturity...

In the VIR collection there is a rich initial material, which can contribute to intensification of breeding leguminous vegetable directions our country, as well an increase in species diversity cultures this group.

The world’s genebanks hold 7.5 million germplasm accessions of plant genetic resources (PGR). One the qualitative characteristics PGR collections is species diversity, in particular, presence crop wild relatives (CWR), which makes it possible to widen use gene pools breeding process. collection Vavilov Institute (VIR) one most diverse holdings number species. A survey provided here diversity VIR’s grain legume collection, and its domestic practice analyzed. Comparison this with state...

Soybean is a strategic crop of multipurpose use.Production and consumption soybeans are increasing year by year, with new uses appeared.Soybean can become one the key plants in bioeconomics.Food, fodder, technical, medical pharmaceutical use diversified requires specialized varieties target traits.This poses challenges for breeders and, accordingly, holders germplasm collections that supply source material breeding.VIR soybean collection many years serves as genetic breeding.Based on...

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is produced in 93 countries of the world on 120.5 million hectares. The production area crop located between 56N. (Russian Federation) and 35-37S (Argentina). In gene pool crop, there a wide variety genotypes different maturity groups, which every has relatively narrow latitudinal adaptability, depends heat moisture supply duration photoperiod. An urgent problem our time creation early maturated varieties allow to expand soybean cultivation north. 12 major...

Background. We tested soybean accessions from the VIR collection. These had not been earlier at any experiment station of VIR. Materials and methods . The testing was carried out Black Sea Coast Caucasus. 494 various geographic origins. arrived to collection 1922 1995. Our work done according VIR's methodological guidelines. Results. Almost half maturity groups manifested high seed productivity (> 30g per plant). There were no with among earliest group (growing season 81-90 days)....

Background . Soybeans accessions from the VIR collection were tested in Primorsky Territory, Russia. These had not been studied earlier that area. Materials and methods The testing was carried out at Far East Experiment Station of involved 570 soybean various geographic origin. work performed according to VIR’s methodological guidelines. Results selected evaluated for their flowering ripening schedule, seed yield, characteristics (primary color coat, hilum color, etc.), 1000 weight, plant...

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), a grain legume crop, is considered innovative for the Russian Federation.Over past fifteen years, its area in our country have increased 20 times and reached 420,300 hectares 2015.The growing demand of chickpea determines necessity breeding new varieties.One ways to improve crop could be introgression genes from old landraces, especially those regions species genetic diversity, centers origin (i.e. primary Turkey secondary Ethiopia).In this paper question...

Background. Soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is a microbiotic whose seeds quickly lose germination in uncontrolled conditions at room temperatures. This determines the need to preserve accessions special conditions. Low temperature storage (LTS) allows maintain high seed ability, but not for all accessions. Therefore, it relevant assess results of LTS VIR Genebank and make an attempt determine best geographical growing plants harvesting that will be subjected LTS. Materials methods. The...

The percentage of foreign material in the VIR collection grain legumes varies from 42% (vetch) to 96-97% (cowpea, chickpea). For most crops, this indicator is between 75-86%. It depends either on agroclimatic needs crops reflecting areas their cultivation and growth over world or centers origin as well scale production breeding different countries. main way receiving new crop abroad VIR's international cooperation which was initiated by N. I. Vavilov. Since then, interaction Institute with...

Abstract. The mission of this works is to screen the soybean germplasm by vegetation period and basic morphometric traits in agroecological conditions Azov region, identify perspective samples for inclusion breeding process. Methods. objects research were 42 genotypes from VIR N. I. Vavilov collection. In progress work followed methods state variety testing agricultural crops. Field was carried out Aksai district Rostov region 2019–2021, differing meteorological conditions. Scientific...
