Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate green herbag e, hay yield, seed yields, and yield components of some Hungarian vetch accessions during the 2006-2007 and 2007‐2008 cropping seasons at two locations (Haymana and Yenimahalle) of Ankara province. Green herbage yield, hay yield, biological yield, seed yield, plant h eight, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod and harvest index were detected. There were high correlations ( P<0.01) between hay yield with main stem length, natural pl ant length, green herbage yield, but it had negativ e significant correlations with (P<0.01) pod numbers in a plant, seed numbers in a plant, pod length. The seed yield (SY) had statistically positive significant correlations (P< 0.01 and P < 0.05) with main stem length (MSL), biol ogical yield (BY), natural plant height (NPH), and hay yield (HY). Cluster analysis formed all traits measured into four groups. The results showed that three lines (L-1724, L-1725, and L-1727) were promising for yield potential, good qu ality, adaptation, and could be useful to meet the needs o f high quality herbage production for livestock sec tion in Turkey.
