Total content of quinolizidine alkaloids (QA) in shoots, leaves and seeds of alkaloid-poor Washington lupin (L upinus polyphyllus Lindl) grown in Finland was studied from 1992 to 1994. The results show that during these years the amount of alkaloids in shoots decreased from 202 to 101 mg kg~1 DM. Th
