Abstract
G.A. Batalova, Doctor of Agricultural Sciences, professor, corresponding member of RAS, deputy director on breeding work FSBSI ‘Regional Research Institute of Agriculture of North-East named after N.V. Rudnitsky’ (610007, Kirov, Lenin Str., 166a, tel.: (8332) 35-28-04, email: [email protected]) Grain crop breeding for immunity in the North-East of the European Territory of Russia The Research Institute of Agriculture of the North-East and Falensk SS (the Kirov region) has developed the grain crop varieties, resistant to diseases and pests. The spring soft wheat variety ‘Bazhenka’ is tolerant to loose and kernel smut; the variety ‘Svecha’ is resistant to brown rust, leaf and head blotch; the oats variety ‘Fakir’ is tolerant to crown and cauline rust; the varieties ‘Teremok’ and ‘Faust’ are resistant to crown and cauline rust as well as to loose and kernel smut. The variety ‘Medved’ is tolerant to frit flies (oscinis frit), weakly responsive to loose smut in the laboratory infectious conditions and resistant in natural conditions; the variety has got only 0.8% of damage made by root rot. The barley variety ‘Ekolog’ is resistant to loose and kernel smut, weakly responsive to stripe blotch and tolerant to root rot. The barley variety ‘Rodnik Prekamie’ combines resistance to loose smut with average tolerance to root rots, weak damage by cauline rust and stripe blotch. The variety of spring barley ‘Pamyati Rodinoy’ is characterized with average resistance to barley net blotch. The barley variety ‘Forvard’ is tolerant to loose smut (with 1.0% of damaged plants on the infectious background), to net and dark-brownish blotch of leaves. The new oats variety ‘Satur’ combines productivity with high quality of grain, i.e. 581 g/l of nature weight, 26.6% of husk, 14.44% of raw protein, 2.87% of oil. It’s weakly responsive to loose smut in the laboratory infectious conditions and resistant in natural conditions, rather resistant to crown rust (not more that 5% of plants), tolerant to frit flies (oscinis frit). The winter rye varieties ‘Falenskaya 4’, ‘Rushnik’, ‘Flora’, ‘Grafinya’, ‘Rada’ have been found resistant to snow mold. The varieties ‘Kirovskaya89’ and ‘Snezhana’ are rather resistant to brown rust. The promising rye varieties ‘Sarmat’ and Populyatsiya 41/08’ are characterized with the resistance to black grain (ergot). The peas varieties ‘Albumen’, ‘Luchezarny’, ‘Severyanin’, ‘Ryabchik’ and ‘Vita’ are tolerant to black stem (Ascochyta). The variety ‘Krasivy’ is weakly responsive to black stem, pot spot (rust) and root rots.
