Directions and brief results of spring oat breeding in the conditions of the Northern region

Abstract

54 samples of spring oats of various ecological and geographical origin were studied on the basis of FGUP "Kotlasskoe", which is located in the south-eastern part of the Northern Region in 2017–2020. A comprehensive assessment of varieties based on biological and production indicators was carried out: grain yield and green mass, weight of 1000 grains, duration of the growing season, plant height, resistance to lodging and dust smut damage. As a result of the conducted research, a promising breeding material for breeding on a complex of economically valuable traits was identified. The following samples were selected for use on grain: 35h2636, 27h2506, 45h2490, 3h2559, 69h2450, and H-2502. Of particular interest were the varieties of universal use, which formed a high yield of grain and green mass (45h2490, 69h2450 and H-2502).
