HULLESS OAT IN THE CONDITIONS OF WESTERN SIBERIA

Abstract

The aim of the research is to evaluate the hulless oat varieties of the Omsk breeding by a set of characteristics of productivity and grain quality. The object of the research was 3 hulless oat varieties recommended for cultivation in this region (Omsky golozyorny, Progress, Tarsky golozyorny). The variety Tarsky golozyorny is recommended for introduction into production in the conditions of Western Siberia; it is characterized by increased starch content (+ 2.7 % to st.) and grain size (+ 8.5 g by thousand-seed weight to st.). It is stable in yield, protein content in grain, crude fat. It belongs to the extensive type by the content of protein and starch in grain, the thousand-seed weight, productivity; and to the intensive type – by the content of crude fat in grain.
