Collaborative project: Innovative breeding strategies for improving the growing nature of the yellow Lupine (Lupinus luteus) in German. Subproject 1: Genetic and molecular analysis of yield related characteristics, incorporating new genetic variability (InnoLuteus)
Project
Project code: 22028716, JKI-ZL-08-3218
Contract period: 01.02.2019
- 31.01.2022
Budget: 376,426 Euro
Purpose of research: Experimental development
The overall goal of the project is to improve cultivation of yellow lupin (Lupinus luteus) in Germany. Yellow lupin is well adapted to poor soils, has a good drought tolerance and high protein content. Based on innovative breeding strategies including (I) new mutant collections and (II) unadapted genetic resources and their combination with sequence-based marker development, it is possible to significantly improve important traits and set new perspectives for breeding competitive yellow lupin varieties. In order to improve cultivation of yellow lupin, several traits will be characterized: Anthracnose resistance will be analyzed genetically and molecular markers will be developed for integration into breeding programmes. Frost tolerance will be checked in climate chambers and in the field. Mutation lines and novel genetic material will be screened for agronomically important traits. Furthermore, seed quality will be determined in reference to food processing. Positive lines can thus be used directly for future breeding efforts.
