RESULTS OF THE STUDY OF COLLECTIBLE VARIETIES OF PEAS IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE KIROV REGION
The article presents the results of studying the genotypes of peas by a complex of breeding valua-ble traits. The research was carried out in 2014-2021 in accordance with the methodological guidelines of the VIR and the State Commission for Variety Testing of Agricultural Crops. The objects of study are 59 collectible varieties of peas of various morphotypes, the standard is the Krasnoufimsky 93 variety (Sverdlovsk region). The aim of the work was to isolate the genetic sources of peas by a set of traits for further use in the breeding process. The weather conditions during the study period were contrasting, which allowed the most objective assessment of the studied samples. Grain yields ranged from 126 g/m2 (2021 g) to 468 g/m2 (2014 g). As a result of the study, varietal samples were determined that significantly exceeded the standard for grain yield. The highest yield on average for 2014-2021 was obtained from samples Tigra (Germany) – 437 g/m2, Stabil (Austria) – 376 g/m2, Grana (USA) – 353 g/m2, G-21594 (Kirov region) – 340 g/m2, G-24596 – 331 g/m2, etc. Genotypes with high indicators of productivity elements were identified. The maximum value of the number of productive nodes was noted in the Serio variety (USA) – 4.6 pcs., the number of beans – in G-21594 (7.5 pcs.), the number of grains – in the Verkholuzskaya variety (Komi Republic, 32.2 pcs.), productivity – in the Stabil variety (6.6 g). Most of the studied genotypes (78%) had a mass of 1000 seeds 150-250 g. The largest seeds were characterized by sample No. 40 (Bulgaria, weight of 1000 seeds 340 g). It was found that the grain yield, the number of productive nodes, beans and grains per plant differed the most in the studied cultivars, the mass of 1000 seeds varied slightly.
