Résumé : | Lupins have until recently remained wild or semi-domesticated species of minor interest to agriculture, although their value as a rotation crop was noted 2000 years ago. However, with the advent of the science of genetics in the early twentieth century, full domestication of luminus species for use as crop was begun, by the combination of favourable genes such as those for low alkaloid content, non-shattering pods and soft seeds. As a result, several lupin species have become an important part of temperature farming systems as a high protein crop for both animal and human consumption. This book gives an authoritative account of the history, distribution and taxonomy of lupinus species and the current knowledge of all aspects of their agronomy and impact on agriculture .... |
