Phenological assessment is carried out

In the department of selection of spring wheat of SPCGF named after A.I. Barayev phenological assessment of breeding lines of spring wheat was carried out. The assessment of the crops of a new sort of spring soft wheat Taimas, which has been under state sort testing since the current year, was carried out by T. Shelaeva, senior researcher of the spring soft wheat selection group. Crops are in the phase of the onset of milk ripeness, have large ears, aligned with a medium height stalk.

In addition, a new sort was evaluated for drought resistance. In the month of July, excellent conditions developed for evaluating breeding material for drought: low rainfall, high air temperatures, and dry winds. Sort Taimas once again proved that it has high resistance to drought in the main phases of development.
