Abstract: White lupin (Lupinus albus L.) is a protein plant adapted to the conditions of middle Europe. Presently, no variety with a sufficient resistance to anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum lupini, is available, and cultivation of white lupins in Germany has hardly any relevance. Making this crop available for cultivation again would expand the range of domestic protein crops and increase the biological diversity on agriculturally used fields. \nTo make this crop worth cultivated again, it is essential to develop white lupin varieties with a high resistance to anthracnose. The breeding lines tested in this study proofed to have a higher level of resistance towards anthracnose and are thus yielding higher compared to currently available varieties. \n
