AB  - Protein pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a protein-rich legume (up to 33% of seed protein). Using pea in the human and animal diet provides one of the best solutions for the long-term lack of plant-based protein. Although soybean is one of the primary plant protein sources, the advantage of growing pea is their wider geographical area and colder climates adaptability. 
The objective of this study was to determine the impact of different agroecological conditions in 64 protein pea cultivars on seed protein content and agronomical traits related to seed yield. A two-year trial on two European sites (Serbia and Belgium) was done using an augmented block design. The average temperatures and total precipitation amount during the vegetative period (March-August) in Serbia trials were 18.4 °C and 381.4 mm for 2019 and 18.1°C and 488.9 mm for 2020, and in Belgium trials 14.9 °C and 268.9 mm for 2019 and 14.7°C and 184.6 mm for 2020. Agronomical traits (flowering duration FD, plant seed yield PSY, thousand seed weight TSW, and seed per pod SPP) were determined using ten plant samples, while seed protein content (SPC) was determined using near-infrared spectroscopy (Table 1). Statistically significant differences between localities were determined by T-test, and Pearson's correlation coefficients were determined between traits. Multivariate analysis was performed based on the examination of mean values of traits for both localities, in order to investigate the population structure of 64 pea genotypes differing in color and seed type. Significant positive correlation was observed between TSW and PSY (0.60), and between SPP and SPC (0.25). A significant negative correlation was determined between SPC and TSW (-0.66) and between SPC and PSY (-0.41). The results of multivariate analysis based on seed color show the separation of pigmented seeds from mixed non-pigmented seeds by the first axis (35.9%) and yellow non-pigmented seeds by the second axis (17.9%), with no clear grouping in relation to seed type (smooth, wrinkled, dimpled).
The similar values of the main agronomic traits that affect the yield confirm the great ability of protein pea to adapt to different agroecological conditions.

AB  - Istaživanje u okviru ove doktorske disertacije je imalo za cilj utvrđivanje uticaja različitih agroekoloških uslova na produktivnost i prinos genotipova proteinskog graška (kroz utvrđivanje fenotipskih razlika između genotipova, vrednosti komponenti prinosa semena, sadržaja i prinosa proteina i analizu sastava proteina u semenu), analizu korelacije između sadržaja proteina u semenu sa komponentama prinosa i prinosom semena, sa glavnim ciljem da se dobiju rezultati koji će poslužiti kao osnova i pokazatelj za utvrđivanje osobina koje utiču na prinos proteina. U tom cilju postavljeni su ogledi na dva lokaliteta tokom dve godine – na oglednom polju Instituta za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo u Novom Sadu, Republika Srbija, i na oglednom polju kompanije Agro Seed Research, Kessenich, Belgija, po eksperimentalnom planu sa delimičnim ponavljanjima (Augmented design) u red-kolona sistemu, sa četiri eksperimentalna bloka. Za istraživanje korišćeno je ukupno 165 genotipova graška, pri čemu su ispitivani genotipovi podeljeni u dve grupe, prema tipu (sorte, linije, eksperimentalne linije, divlji i poludivlji srodnici) i prema upotrebi (povrtarski, za zrno, krmni, eksperimentalne linije i divlji srodnici).
AB  - The research involved evaluating phenotypic variations between genotypes, analyzing seed yield components, protein content, and yield, and conducting a protein composition analysis. Multivariate and correlation analysis were performed to examine the relationship between protein content, yield components, and seed yield, with the primary goal of identifying traits that impact protein yield. Experiments were conducted over two years at two locations: the Institute for Crop and Vegetable Agriculture in Novi Sad, Republic of Serbia, and the experimental field of the Agro Seed Research company in Kessenich, Belgium. The experimental design included four blocks with partial repetitions, following an augmented design in a row-column system. A total of 165 pea genotypes were evaluated, and categorized based on type (varieties, lines, experimental lines, wild and semi-wild relatives) and use (vegetable, grain, fodder, experimental lines, and wild relatives).

AB  - Description of the subject. Red clover is an important forage legume and a rich source of high quality forage for livestock feed. This study assesses of a diverse red clover collection for agronomic value, forage quality and antioxidant activity in relation to status (cultivar vs natural population) and ploidy level (diploid or tetraploid) for the purpose of diversity study and for
identification of potential heterotic groups and classification of accessions according to the results of analyses. Objectives. The aims of this research were to: i) explore agronomic traits, forage quality, and antioxidant activity in relation to status and ploidy level; ii) assess trait associations and the possibility of indirect selection; iii) cluster red clover accessions with
regard to forage quality and antioxidant activity. Method. Red clover was represented by 46 accessions, the cultivars and natural populations of diploid (2n) and tetraploid
(4n) ploidy levels from 17 countries, which were collected and preserved in the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in Novi Sad, Serbia. The following traits were determined from the two-year field trial at Rimski Šančevi, Serbia: plant height (PH), internodes number (IN), green mass yield (GMY), dry matter yield (DMY), crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), digestible dry matter (DDM), dry matter intake (DMI), relative feed value (RFV) and antioxidant activity. All accessions were characterized in the second cut of the second year of life when 20-25% of flowers appeared. Results. The cultivars had higher values for PH, IN, GMY, DMY, DDM, DMI, and RFV. The tetraploid accessions had higher
values for IN, GMY, DMY, CP, NDF and DDM. The natural populations and diploid accessions had 39.9% and 21.9% smaller antioxidant capacity, respectively. The antioxidant capacity was positively associated with RFV, DDM, DMI, PH, IN, GMY and DMY, but negatively with ADF and NDF. Conclusions. The grouping of red clover accessions based on forage quality parameters and antioxidant activity was represented by five clusters. High-quality cultivars had a shorter length of internodes and a good leaf to stem ratio with a high leaf proportion.

Cette étude évalue une collection diversifiée de trèfle violet pour la valeur agronomique, la qualité du fourrage et l’activité antioxydante en relation avec le statut (cultivar vs population naturelle) et le niveau de ploïdie
(diploïde ou tétraploïde) aux fins d’étude de diversité et d’identification de groupes hétérotiques potentiels et de classification des accessions en fonction des résultats des analyses.
Objectifs. Les buts de cette recherche étaient : i) d’explorer les caractéristiques agronomiques, la qualité du fourrage et l’activité antioxydante en relation avec le statut et le niveau de ploïdie ; ii) d’évaluer les associations de caractéristiques et la possibilité de sélection indirecte ; iii) de regrouper les accessions de trèfle violet en ce qui concerne la qualité du fourrage et l’activité
antioxydante. Méthode. Le trèfle violet était représenté par 46 accessions, les cultivars et populations naturelles de niveaux de ploïdie diploïde (2n) et tétraploïde (4n) originaires de 17 pays qui ont été collectés et conservés à l’Institut des grandes cultures et des cultures maraîchères de Novi Sad, Serbie. Les caractéristiques suivantes ont été définies sur la base d’un essai bisannuel sur un champ dans la localité de Rimski Sancevi en Serbie : hauteur de la plante (PH), nombre d’entre-noeuds (IN), rendement en masse verte (GMY), rendement en matière sèche (DMY), protéine brute (CP ), fibre détergente acide (ADF), fibre détergente neutre (NDF), matière sèche digestible (DDM), apport en matière sèche (DMI), valeur alimentaire relative (RFV) et activité
antioxydante. Toutes les accessions ont été caractérisées à la deuxième coupe de la deuxième année de vie lorsque 20 à 25 % des fleurs sont apparues. Résultats. Les cultivars avaient des valeurs plus élevées pour PH, IN, GMY, DMY, DDM, DMI et RFV. Les accessions 4n
avaient des valeurs plus élevées pour IN, GMY, DMY, CP, NDF et DDM. Les populations et les accessions 2n avaient une capacité antioxydante inférieure de 39,9 % et 21,9 %, respectivement. La capacité antioxydante était positivement associée à RFV, DDM, DMI, PH, IN, GMY et DMY, mais négativement à ADF et NDF. Conclusions. Le regroupement des accessions de trèfle violet sur la base des paramètres de qualité du fourrage et de l’activité antioxydante a été représenté par cinq groupes. Les cultivars de haute qualité avaient une longueur d’entre-noeuds plus courte
et un bon rapport feuille/tige avec une proportion élevée de feuilles.

(diploïde ou tétraploïde) aux fins d’étude de diversité et d’identification de groupes hétérotiques potentiels et de classification des accessions en fonction des résultats des analyses.
Objectifs. Les buts de cette recherche étaient : i) d’explorer les caractéristiques agronomiques, la qualité du fourrage et l’activité antioxydante en relation avec le statut et le niveau de ploïdie ; ii) d’évaluer les associations de caractéristiques et la possibilité de sélection indirecte ; iii) de regrouper les accessions de trèfle violet en ce qui concerne la qualité du fourrage et l’activité
antioxydante. Méthode. Le trèfle violet était représenté par 46 accessions, les cultivars et populations naturelles de niveaux de ploïdie diploïde (2n) et tétraploïde (4n) originaires de 17 pays qui ont été collectés et conservés à l’Institut des grandes cultures et des cultures maraîchères de Novi Sad, Serbie. Les caractéristiques suivantes ont été définies sur la base d’un essai bisannuel sur un champ dans la localité de Rimski Sancevi en Serbie : hauteur de la plante (PH), nombre d’entre-noeuds (IN), rendement en masse verte (GMY), rendement en matière sèche (DMY), protéine brute (CP ), fibre détergente acide (ADF), fibre détergente neutre (NDF), matière sèche digestible (DDM), apport en matière sèche (DMI), valeur alimentaire relative (RFV) et activité
antioxydante. Toutes les accessions ont été caractérisées à la deuxième coupe de la deuxième année de vie lorsque 20 à 25 % des fleurs sont apparues. Résultats. Les cultivars avaient des valeurs plus élevées pour PH, IN, GMY, DMY, DDM, DMI et RFV. Les accessions 4n
avaient des valeurs plus élevées pour IN, GMY, DMY, CP, NDF et DDM. Les populations et les accessions 2n avaient une capacité antioxydante inférieure de 39,9 % et 21,9 %, respectivement. La capacité antioxydante était positivement associée à RFV, DDM, DMI, PH, IN, GMY et DMY, mais négativement à ADF et NDF. Conclusions. Le regroupement des accessions de trèfle violet sur la base des paramètres de qualité du fourrage et de l’activité antioxydante a été représenté par cinq groupes. Les cultivars de haute qualité avaient une longueur d’entre-noeuds plus courte
et un bon rapport feuille/tige avec une proportion élevée de feuilles.",

AB  - Phenotypic and genotypic characterization were performed to assess heritability, variability,
and seed yield stability of pea genotypes used in breeding to increase the pea production area.
A European pea diversity panel, including genotypes from North America, Asia, and Australia
consisting of varieties, breeding lines, pea, and landraces was examined in 2019 and 2020 in Serbia
and Belgium using augmented block design. The highest heritability was for thousand seed weight;
the highest coefficient of variation was for seed yield. The highest positive correlation was between
number of seeds per plant and number of pods per plant; the highest negative correlation was
between seed yield and protein content. Hierarchical clustering separated pea germplasm based
on use and type. Different Principal component analysis grouping of landraces, breeding lines, and
varieties, as well as forage types and garden and dry peas, confirms that there was an apparent
decrease in similarity between the genotypes, which can be explained by their different purposes.
Pea breeding should be focused on traits with consistent heritability and a positive effect on seed
yield when selecting high-yielding genotypes, and on allowing for more widespread use of pea in
various agricultural production systems.

AB  - Peas (Pisum sativum L.) are an important source of vegetable protein for both humans and animals. However, pea seed proteins are limited in sulfur-containing amino acids (SCAA) and thus considered to be an insufficient source. The main seed proteins in pea are 7S (vicilins, convicilins) and 11S (legumins) globulins. Because 11S globulins contain more SCAA than 7S globulins, variations in the 7S/11S ratio affects the nutritional quality of pea seeds. Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was used to separate seed proteins from 260 pea genotypes from around the world (the EUCLEG collection). Based on the electropherogram, 18 protein bands were densitometrically measured. Protein compositional data are intrinsically multivariate. The protein concentration of each genotype is presented in closed form i.e., sum up to 100%. Therefore, for multivariate data analysis specific statistical methodology was used. All methods used in the study were carried out in classical and robust manner that was resistant to outlier observations. The storage protein composition of the genotypes studied varied greatly; in some cases, only traces of the main components were found. The results suggest that some of the genotypes tested could be useful in various breeding programs aimed at producing agronomically viable plants, yielding high-protein seed with specific composition of storage proteins for specific food applications.

AB  - This paper presents the plant genetic resources maintained by the Center of Excellence for Legumes of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops, National Institute of the Republic of Serbia. The genetic resources of legumes (soybean, alfalfa, red clover, pea and vetch) are an invaluable source material and a rich source of genetic divergence for the development of varieties adapted to specific agricultural and environmental conditions. Soybean is the most important of all cultivated legumes and occupies the largest area under cultivation. The alfalfa collection consists of over 800 genotypes with different agronomic traits and dormancy values. The novel alfalfa breeding concept - breeding for yield per se, based on natural heterosis in the development of half hybrids - was introduced in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The Center of Excellence for Legumes has 757 soybean genotypes, 655 red clover genotypes, about 730 pea genotypes and 495 vetch genotypes. The development of the winter pea variety for grain (NS Mraz), the first of its kind in South-Eastern Europe, was significant for science.

AB  - In Serbia, alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is grown on about 140,000 ha, out of which 3–7% are intended for seed
production. Climatic factors (amount and distribution of precipitation) are the main determinants of alfalfa
seed yield. Average alfalfa seed yield in Serbia is about 250 kg ha-1, and seed production is characterized by
huge variation (15–800 kg ha-1). The most challenging year for seed production is the establishment year, i.e.,
the first year of plant life. To be successful on the market, new alfalfa varieties are selected for high forage
production, quality of forage, and persistence. However, outstanding seed-yield potential is also needed. Even
if breeding for seed yield is not prioritized, genetic variation among cultivars is known. In order to explore
genetic variation for alfalfa seed yield and its components in the establishment year, a trial with 400 accessions
was established at the experimental field of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops, Novi Sad, Serbia, on
May 21, 2018. The genotypes were tested in a partially replicated design. For the purpose of this study, we
extracted model best linear unbiased predictions (BLUPs) for 20 populations, which represent a part of the
European alfalfa core collection. The plot size was 6 m2
. Seed yield and its components were recorded for
each plot. The 2018 field season was not favorable for alfalfa seed production in Serbia, but the results clearly
demonstrate differences among varieties for total seed yield and its components in the establishment year.
Seed yields varied from 31.8 kg ha-1 for the variety ‘Tereza’ to 96.7 kg ha-1 for the variety ‘Etincelle’. Higher
seed yields were obtained with less dormant varieties (dormancy ratings 5–6), while lower yields were
recorded with more dormant varieties (dormancy ratings 3–4). Analyses showed that, even under unfavorable
conditions, genetic variation could be important for alfalfa seed production in the year of establishment.
