Work on red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) breeding at the Forage Crops Department of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in Novi Sad, Serbia (Serbia and Montenegro) began in the mid- 1990s. The main task of breeding red clover, the second most important perennial forage legume, is to develop cultivars that produce high forage yields. Besides the breeding for the main forage yield components, special attention has been paid to increasing the protein content and developing genotypes tolerant of low temperatures, lodging and major diseases in economic terms. Our work thus far on red clover breeding using mass (phenotypic recurrent) selection has resulted in the release of two cultivars - Kolubara (2000) and Una (2004). More recently, work on red clover hybridization has begun as well.
