New Promising Varieties of Cultures Bred by Omsk Agrarian Scientific Center

Abstract

Harsh conditions of sharply continental climate of Western Siberia are often the cause of a sharp decrease in yield in the context of the negative development of abiotic factors (instable temperature conditions, soil moisture). A variety is an inexhaustible and renewable reserve for increasing both productive and quality parameters of grain crops (along with widely known and used, such as cultivation technologies). The subject of research includes new promising varieties of spring durum wheat, oats, barley and soybeans bred by Omsk Agrarian Scientific Center. The research was conducted from 2013 to 2018, at the experimental fields of Omsk Agrarian Scientific Center (area of the southern foreststeppe of Western Siberia). Obtained results allow us to recommend the following varieties for cultivation in this area: Omsk Emerald and Omsk Coral for durum wheat; Omsk 101 and Omsk hulless 4 for barley; Siberian Hercules and Tarskiy hulless for oats; Cheremshanka for soybeans. These varieties are characterized by increased productivity and grain quality.
