摘要

Food legumes represent the backbone of global food security, providing essential proteins and nutrients to many human populations in the world. However, the challenges caused by climate changes, calls for new approaches to creating high-yielding and climate-resilient varieties. This review explores one of several techniques of speed breeding using extended photoperiod, as a sustainable strategy to increase genetic improvement of food legumes. By controlling plant exposure to light intelligently, researchers have significantly accelerated generation turnover and selection process, opening up an era for rapid development of new varieties. In this comprehensive review, we discuss the principles and methodologies of speed breeding, highlighting its ability to produce multiple generations each year. We are studying various legume species, including lentil, chickpea, faba beans and others under speed breeding conditions. This review elucidates the practical applications and economic benefits of using rapid breeding for food legumes, while emphasizing the paramount importance of preserving genetic diversity.
