🌱 Field work has been completed for this year’s #LegumeGeneration bean trials at @LeibnizIPK Gatersleben. Next, data from multiple locations and two years of trials will be brought together to identify promising bean varieties for the future. #LegumeBreeding #PlantBreeding

📢#LegumeGeneration is going to Valencia🇪🇸 in October! 🌱#Euroseeds2026 Congress offers 3⃣ days filled with top-level insights on current and upcoming key issues for the European and international seed sector, as well as vibrant exhibition and trade. 🔜Stay tuned! @EuroseedsEU

📢 Researchers, breeders & soybean experts: the #WSRC2027 Call for Abstracts is open! Share your latest research in genetics, breeding, agronomy, crop protection, food & feed, business and more. Abstract submissions are open until 16 Nov 2026. 👉🏻Submit: wsrc2027.com.ar/en/call-for-…

#LegumeGenerationOutreach 🌱At the 2026 @BS_PP Annual Conference in Norwich🇬🇧, #LegumeGeneration researchers Sanu Arora and Mishi Vachev shared new findings on disease resistance in pea, helping identify promising pathways towards more resilient crop varieties. #LegumeBreeding

🌱Collaboration in action! 🤝Partners from @UPolomouc visited @BOKUvienna soybean field experiments in Tulln, connecting research with real-world field observations and exchanging valuable insights across teams. #LegumeGeneration #SoybeanBreeding #SustainableAgriculture

📢 The #WSRC12 will take place in Rosario🇦🇷 on 4-7 April 2027, bringing together the global soybean community to share knowledge & innovation. 🗓️Abstracts: 1 Jun-16 Nov '26 📝Early bird registration: until 16 Nov '26 🔗wsrc2027.com.ar/en #soybeanbreeding #legumebreeding

📃An @LeibnizIPK study explored over 3,000 pea varieties preserved in the IPK Genebank, uncovering valuable traits such as higher protein content and winter hardiness. These findings can help breeders develop more resilient pea varieties for future farming challenges.

🔍🌱Phenotyping in action! In July 2026, Vignan Kakkerla assessed bean genetic resources to support research on agronomic & adaptation traits, helping breeders identify valuable diversity for future varieties. 📸 @LeibnizIPK #LegumeGeneration

📢#LegumeGeneration was presented at Protein Innovation Day in Korneuburg 🇦🇹, organised by Agro Innovation Lab. 💬Discussions highlighted soybean as a key plant-based protein source & addressed research on protein quality across environments &climate adaptation. #legumebreeding

🫛Breeders, growers & researchers each bring valuable expertise to pea breeding. By working together in the #LegumeGeneration Pea Innovation Community, they are developing new breeding material & genetic markers that help breeders create improved pea varieties. #legumebreeding

🎙️ #LegumeGeneration hosted an internal webinar bringing together breeders, researchers and partners to explore a new tool supporting soybean breeding in Europe. 👏 Thanks to Mária Škrabišová @UPOlomouc for sharing her expertise! #SoybeanBreeding #PlantBreeding

🫛 Disease pressures vary across Europe. In #LegumeGeneration, testing pea material in different regions revealed a new source of resistance to powdery mildew, highlighting the value of collaboration in #plantbreeding. 🎥 Watch the interview 👇🏻 #HorizonEurope

👥Great to join the @eucapnetwork Cross-Visit on protein production under climate change and discuss the #LegumeGeneration project with the representatives from @EUAgri & @EIPAGRI_SP. Strong collaboration & innovation will be🔑to advancing resilient protein crops across Europe.

🌍International collaboration in action! During a visit to the #LegumeGeneration soybean field experiment at @BOKUvienna, A. Slanina (Edamax) & X. Yao (Chinese Academy of Sciences) discussed with J. Vollmann breeding priorities & growing demand for food-grade soybeans in 🇪🇺 & 🇨🇳.

🫛 How do you develop pea varieties that perform across Europe? In #LegumeGeneration, breeders & researchers test the same pea material across different climates, soils & growing conditions to identify resilient, stable varieties for farmers.🌍🧑‍🌾 🎥youtube.com/watch?v=2JHoG5fO…

🫛The #LegumeGeneration Pea Innovation Community showcased its latest research at the @JohnInnesCentre Breeders’ Day on 3 June 2026. 🌱🦠Researchers presented winter-hardy pea field trials and a new fungal disease diagnostic tool, generating strong interest from UK breeders.

🔍What should legumes of the future deliver? 📝A Europe-wide survey is gathering input from across the value chain to align breeding goals with real-world needs. ➡️legumehub.eu/general/breedin… #LegumeBreeding #PlantBreeding #AgInnovation #SustainableAgriculture

🇭🇷At #ILS5, 4 EU projects 🇪🇺 (@BELIS_EU, #LegumeGeneration, INCREASE, @PROSPERHORIZON) joined forces to boost #legume diversity, resilience & competitiveness🌱. From genomics tools to stakeholder engagement, the workshop highlighted collaboration to turn research into impact.

🌱 On 6 June 2026, #LegumeGeneration was presented at @LeibnizIPK Open Doors Day. Together with #INCREASE, the project showcased research on common bean and engaged visitors on the role of legumes in sustainable agriculture. #LegumeBreeding #HorizonEU #PlantScience
