THE RESULTS OF PEA BREEDING IN THE MIDDLE URALS

For several decades, the Krasnoufimsky Breeding Center of the FSBSI UrFASRC UrB of RAS has been successfully implementing comprehensive research aimed at creating new crop varieties adapted to the specific climatic and environmental conditions of the Middle Urals. Within the framework of this scientific program, the main focus is on the creation of high-yielding pea varieties with increased resistance to adverse environmental factors, including drought, low temperatures, excessive moisture and exposure to phytopathogens. As a result of many years of research, new varieties of peas have been created: the mustachioed, non-crumbling Krasnoufimskyj 20 variety with a yield of 2.98 t/ha, the determinant mustachioed Meteor variety with a yield of 2.84 t/ha, the chameleon Uralskyj 90 pea variety with a yield of 2.92 t/ha, and the leafy Malachite variety with green seeds, which provides a yield of 2.37 t/ha. The Meteor variety is characterized by a shortened growing season, 5 days ahead of the standard, and simultaneous ripening of beans on the stem. The Malachite leaf variety has an increased resistance to lodging by 2-3 points, in comparison with the Krasnoufimskyj 93 standard (2 points). These varieties have not only high productivity, but also a significant level of resistance to lodging, overgrowth, shedding, phytopathogenic microorganisms and pests, which makes them promising for use in agricultural production in the Middle Urals.
