Abstract

Background: Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is one of the most important forage crops, but its seed productivity varies from year to year due to weather conditions. Alfalfa is a forage crop rich in nutrients which makes it valuable. The present 5-year study aimed to identify the promising alfalfa varieties based on their economic and biological characteristics, such as high seed productivity, a high yield of forage mass, good quality, and stress resistance.

Results: The study contributes information about the promising varieties of alfalfa characterized by high biomass and seed productivity. Varieties such as P-88044, U-73+149 and S-302 had stable seed/green mass yields regardless of climatic conditions; hence, they may be used for alfalfa selection in the southern forest-steppe regions of Bashkortostan.

Conclusions: The present findings can be used for alfalfa selection in the Republic of Bashkortostan (Russia). In addition, the results will be of interest to crop breeders across the globe.

巴什科尔托斯坦共和国南部森林草原区紫花苜蓿品种的鉴定:经济和生物学特性的研究。

背景:紫花苜蓿(Medicago sativa L.)是最重要的饲料作物之一，但其种子产量因气候条件而逐年变化。紫花苜蓿是一种营养丰富的饲料作物，因此很有价值。本研究旨在从种子产量高、产草量大、品质好、抗逆性强等经济和生物学特性出发，寻找具有发展前景的苜蓿品种。结果:本研究为高生物量、高种子产量的紫花苜蓿品种提供了信息。无论气候条件如何，P-88044、U-73+149和S-302等品种的种子/绿质量产量稳定;因此，它们可用于巴什科尔托斯坦南部森林草原地区的紫花苜蓿选择。结论:本研究结果可用于巴什科尔托斯坦共和国(俄罗斯)紫花苜蓿的选择。此外，研究结果将引起全球作物育种家的兴趣。
