| Title : | PECULIARITIES OF FORMING PRODUCTIVITY AND QUALITY OF SOFT SPRING WHEAT VARIETIES |
| Abstract : | Spring wheat becomes an important strategic grain crop in solving the problem of high–quality grain production. Therefore, main attention should be paid to selection of the most productive spring wheat varieties under certain conditions, as a variety is one of main means of increasing productivity of agricultural crops. The object of our research was varieties of soft spring wheat: Shirocco, Uliublena, Barvysta, Quintus. The best productivity indices of soft spring wheat were obtained when sowing variety Shirocco. This variety provided the largest plant weight –2.69 g, ear weight –1.51 g, and ear length –9.5 cm. The number of grains per ear was at the level of 25.0 pcs. with the mass of 1000 seeds –38.2 g. As a result of conducted research, it was found that yielding capacity of soft spring wheat averaged from 4.13 to 5.54 t.ha-1. The maximum grain yield on average during the research period was produced by variety Shirocco –5.54 t.ha-1. Varieties Uliublena, Barvysta, and Quintus provided grain yield at the level of 4.67, 4.13, and 4.81 t.ha-1, respectively. The highest amount of gluten, at the level of 32.5% with a protein content of 16.3%, was noted in the grain of soft spring wheat of variety Shirocco. |
