Using the adaptive potential of plants in creating varieties from ancient wheat species

Abstract

The object of research was the ancient types of wheat: winter spelled and naked spring spelled. On the basis of ancient types of wheat, the country's only winter spelled variety Alkoran, as well as the world's only naked spelled variety Gremme 2U, have been created. Varieties are adaptive, resistant to abiotic and biotic stress factors of a certain region. They form a sufficient yield with high biochemical and fairly satisfactory physical and chemical indicators of grain, are characterized by absolute immunity to powdery mildew, rust types and enzyme-mycosis depletion of seeds. Due to the high content of protein, essential fatty acids, fiber, minerals, antioxidants, the grain of ancient wheat can serve as a valuable raw material for improving the technologies for the production of food products for dietary and therapeutic purposes, which is especially important for strengthening immunity.
