In the memory of Shatilov - a new adaptive variety of winter soft wheat

A new highly productive variety of soft winter wheat In the memory of Shatilov, was created by crossing 2 breeding lines and the Moskvich variety jointly by the P.P. Lukyanenko Scientific Research Center of Agriculture and the Institute of Agriculture of the KBSC RAS. The work was carried out under the guidance of Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Agricultural Sciences, Professor Lyudmila Andreevna Bespalova. The main tasks in creating the variety were to increase yields when cultivating wheat in crop rotations saturated with row crop predecessors. The new variety of soft winter wheat, In the memory of Shatilov, is characterized by high adaptability and productivity in relation to row-crop predecessors in combination with high winter-frost resistance and good grain quality. The variety was created for obtaining food grains. It is resistant to pathogens of major diseases: Erysiphegraminis DC.f. sp. tritici Em. Marchal; Pucciniastriiformis West.; Pucciniagraminisf. sp. tritici ; weakly affected by Septoriatritici Blotch = Mycosphaerellagraminicola and Pucciniarecondita Rob. exDesm f. sp. tritici , susceptible to Tilletiatritici (Bjerk) Wint. And Fusariumgraminearum Schwabe. The new variety is resistant to lodging and shedding, winter-hardy and drought-resistant, medium-sized, mid-season. The new variety, along with a high yield, is also characterized by high technological qualities of grain and flour. Thus, the weight of 1000 grains averaged 43.5 g, vitreousness- 50%, crude protein content - 14.0%, nature - 812 g / l, crude gluten content - 25.6%. It is recommended for cultivation in medium and high agro-backgrounds for row crop predecessors in the Krasnodar Territory, Rostov Region and the republics of the North Caucasus. Additional income from cultivating a variety, due to an increase in yield, can be more than 10 thousand rubles from 1 hectare. Since 2020, the variety of soft winter wheat in the Memory of Shatilov is protected by a patent.
