CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF HUNGARIAN VETCH (VICIA PANNONICA SSP. PANNONICA CRANTZ) GENOTYPES
Keywords:
Hungarian vetch, forage quality, crude proteinAbstract
The object of this investigation was to examine the difference between 21 Hungarian vetch (Vicia
pannonica ssp. pannonica Crantz) genotypes in contents of crude protein, crude fiber, phosphorus,
calcium, water soluble carbohydrates. The accessions were studied in a collection nursery at the
experimental field of ESS, Pavlikeni during two growing seasons (2007/08 and 2009/10). The coefficient
of variation of crude protein was low – 4.3% on average for the period and that of crude fiber and
macroelements was medium – 10.7–12.7%. The highest degree of heterogeneity in the collection was
recorded for the contents of water soluble carbohydrate. The accession №20 combined high protein
content (22.40%) with low crude fiber content (21.67%). In two the accessions – №14 and cv. Anatolien
the average levels of water soluble carbohydrates are very high – 5.7 и 6.1%. The cultivars Ege Beyazi и
Beta Pannonbukkony manifested the best results for protein content, phosphorus content and optimal
value for Ca:P ratio.
