This project aims to enhance the drought tolerance of Lucerne, a key forage crop in southern Europe, by using genomic selection models. It focuses on improving forage yield, persistence, and quality through advanced molecular techniques and phenotyping in varying moisture conditions.
Lucerne (Medicago sativa) is the main forage crop in southern Europe and could gain further importance for water- and energy-efficient crop-livestock systems in the context of climate change, especially if its drought tolerance could be enhanced.
The objective of the research work is to improve its forage yield and persistence and its forage quality for moisture-favourable and severely drought-prone environments, through genomic selection models developed from a genome-wide set of molecular mark…
