A total of 170 pea genotypes from LAMMC, KWS Group, Agritec, CPSBB, CREA, and IAS-CSIC were sown in the field trials at the Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry (LAMMC). The collection of pea genotypes has been sown by partners in five locations across Germany (KWS), the Czech Republic (Agritec), Bulgaria (CPSBB), and Lithuania (LAMMC). This experiment is part of WP5, which focuses on legume phenotypic and molecular breeding as proof of concept.
Specifically, it addresses Task 5.2 – Breeding of Grain Legumes. This multi-site approach will allow for a comprehensive evaluation and comparison of the genotypes under diverse environmental conditions and provide valuable data for genomic prediction models.
