Sažetak

Yields of dry matter and protein are important factors in selection of fodder crop cultivars. During the long time of fodder crops breeding for quality alfalfa a small genetic gain was achieved. Therefore we investigated possibility of using local populations of alfalfa to increase quality with direct and indirect selection. Strong and significant influence of genotypes and environments was recorded for yield of dry matter and leaf/stem ratio examined traits and their interactions at the level p<0.01. The highest variation was recorded for fiber yield 51,89 %, while the lowest variation was for leaf/stem ratio 11,74%. For the traits leaf/stem ratio high heritability and high share of genotype variance in total variance were recorded.
