To study collection accessions of the lupine gene pool for valuable economic characteristics and to build up a working collection from sources selected for the conditions of the Ukrainian Woodlands in accordance with current trends in this crop breeding.\u0000Results and Discussion. 150 accessions of the yellow lupine (L. luteus L.), 95 accessions of the white lupine (L. albus L.) and 40 accessions of the narrow-leaved lupine (L. angustifolius L.) of different eco-geographic origins from the collection of the Institute of Agricultural Microbiology and Agricultural Production of NAAS were investigated. The three-year results on 285 accessions of the lupine gene pool studied in the conditions of the Left-Bank Woodlands of Ukraine are presented. The selected sources of economically valuable traits became the basis of the lupine working collection, where traits were picked out for the regional conditions and in accordance with the current trends in this crop breeding. The collection includes 95 accessions of the yellow, white and narrow-leaved lupine species with varying expression of 11 economically valuable traits and is recommended as a genetic basis and valuable starting material for creating new, highly productive, early maturing varieties of fodder lupine. \u0000Conclusions. We built up the working collection of the lupine gene pool. There was a correlation between the performance elements (seed weight per plant, pod and seed numbers per plant) and the total yield of seeds per unit area (r = 0.520 – 0.957).","PeriodicalId":306712,"journal":{"name":"Genetičnì resursi roslin (Plant Genetic Resources)","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130674854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article covers the results of studying antioxidant activity (AOA) in 178 accessions belonging to seven corn subspecies in 2017-2019. The accessions come from 14 countries, including 120 from Ukraine, and have various pigmentation of kernels. It was found that the antioxidant activity of kernels varied within 22.6-82.7%; the chlorogenic acid equivalent (CGAE) varied within 0.97-2.41 µg/g. Antioxidant activity depends on different factors, including growing conditions, origin, subspecies and grain color. Valuable starting material was selected to create lines and hybrids combining elevated AOA with valuable economic characteristics: high grain yield (SS 390, SS 356, MS 11, SE 406, SE 409, SE 416, RK 540-1 KTs 207-1, KTs 42-3, UP 229, Blondynka (UKR), Blu Corn (MEX)); high weight of 1000 kernels (KTs 807-5, KTs 42-3, KTsS 814-2, KTs 602-2, VN 1 (UKR), Freed White, Z 03-004 (USA)); high kernel number per cob (SS 308, MS 233, KTs 27-5, KTs 11, SE 414, SE 397, UP 208 (UKR)); long cobs (Blu Hopi (MEX)); high cob number per plant (VN 1, KTs 502-1 (Ukraine), Butter and Sugar Corn (USA), TAIL P1 (MEX)). The studied accessions are in the collections of Ustymivka Experimental Station and the National Center for Plant Genetic Resources and can be used by breeders and other consumers in theoretical and practical studies.\u0000Conclusions. The presented characteristics of 178 corn accessions in terms of total antioxidant activity revealed variability across accessions belonging to different subspecies from 20% to 82%. AOA depends on different factors, including weather conditions during cultivation, subspecies, and grain color. We selected corn accessions combining high antioxidant activity with high grain productivity, 1000-kernel weight, high kernel number per cob, long cobs, and high cob number per plant. It is expedient to involve corn lines originated from these accessions in the breeding of heterotic hybrids, which will become potential sources of antioxidants in foods.","PeriodicalId":306712,"journal":{"name":"Genetičnì resursi roslin (Plant Genetic Resources)","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127965866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
