Abstract

Narrow leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.) is one of the most important legumes species and a fundamental element for plant and animal production due to high protein content. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation of seed yield and its components on selected chlorophyll fluorescence parameters in narrow leafed lupin cultivars at the flowering and maturation phases. In 2011–2014 field experiments with ten narrow leafed lupin cultivars were conducted at 4 locations and in 2012–2014 chlorophyll fluorescence measurements in vivo of plants in field conditions were made. The significant dependence of seed yield on parameters defining the energy flows in terms of cross section and reaction center (ETo/CS and ETo/RC) at the end of the flowering phase was found. These parameters were positively correlated with seed yield, number of pods and number of seeds in the pod, and negatively correlated with thousand seed weight. The results of this study suggest the direction of further research connected with the elaboration of breeding method for seed yield using the mobile equipment measuring chlorophyll fluorescence parameters.
