Pea (Pisum sativum L.) has a compound leaf like many other legume species. The semi-leafless pea (afaf TLTL), with all leaflets transformed into tendrils, is considered one of the most important achievements in pea breeding, due to a significantly enhanced standing ability and equally efficient dry matter production in comparison to normal-leafed genotypes (AFAF TLTL). Semi-leafless cultivars provide high and stable grain yield and are dominant in the modern dry pea production worldwide. There are also semi-leafless cultivars that are autumn-sown and those for forage production. The genotypes with all tendrils transformed into leaflets (AFAF tltl), called acacia or tendril-less, are extremely prone to lodging and may have importance in breeding for forage production. Little is known about the potential agronomic value of acacia-tendril-less (afaf tltl) genotypes.
