The genetic potential of winter wheat varieties is used unsatisfactorily, which is one of the many reasons that led to the problem of food grain deficit in Ukraine. Realization of the genetic potential of the variety is possible if the entire set of agrotechnological measures and strict technology of seed growing is implemented. The productivity of varieties with different genotypes largely depends on the preceding crops, sowing dates and weather conditions during the growing season. The purpose of our research was to determine the yield potential of new winter wheat varieties bred at Myronivka, depending on the preceding crops and sowing dates in the conditions of the central Forest-Steppe of Ukraine, as well as to establish the interdependence between them. Materials and Methods. The study was conducted in field experiment in the fields of the V. M. Remeslo Myronivka Institute of Wheat NAAS of Ukraine (MIW) located in the central part of the Forest-Steppe of Ukraine in 2018/19–2020/21 (year - factor A). The object of the research were five new winter wheat varieties bred at the V. M. Remeslo Myronivka Institute of Wheat (MIP Fortuna, MIP Lada, MIP Yuvileina, Avrora Myronivska, MIP Lakomka), which were compared with the standard variety Podolianka (factor B). The experiments were laid down after two preceding crops, namely, sunflower, soybean (factor C); sowing was carried out on September 25 and October 5 with a deviation of 1–3 days (factor D). The coefficients of materiality deviations in air temperature (°С) and the amount of precipitation (mm) was determined by gradation according to the methodology of Ped D. A. (1975) and Kalenska S. V. (2018). Results. Weather conditions during the years of the research varied significantly, which made it possible to evaluate the material objectively. The yield of new winter wheat varieties bred at the V. M. Remeslo Myronivka Institute of Wheat, depending on the preceding crops and sowing dates, was studied. Among the investigated preceding crops, soybean was determined to be the best one, as well as the sowing date September 25, on average, during the years of the study they contributed to obtaining the maximum yield for new varieties of this crop. Conclusions. According to the results of the studying varietal differences, it was determined that the highest yield (6.24 t/ha) in general according to the experiment was formed by the MIP Yuvileina variety for the first sowing date (September 25); for two sowing dates (September 25 and October 5) the highest yield value was observed for the MIP Fortuna variety (5.46 and 5.47 t/ha).

Changes in weather and climatic conditions affect the formation of pathogenic complexes of grain agrocenoses and the species composition of pathogens, which are typical for the Steppe zone of Ukraine. At the same time, changes in cultivation technologies accompanying the transition to new forms of management also play a significant role in the formation of pathogenic complexes. It is necessary to find out the features of the pathogenic mycoflora formation and plant immunity in order to scientifically substantiate measures to stabilize the phytosanitary state of agro-cenoses at the current stage of grain production. Purpose. To divide into appropriate groups of grain crop diseases in the Steppe zone in terms of the nature of development, harmfulness and hy-drothermal dependence of their pathogens. Materials and Methods. In 1999–2019, we conducted surveys of wheat (winter and spring), rye, barley (winter and spring), oats and maize for disease in-festation in the Northern Steppe of Ukraine according to generally accepted methods of phytopathological research. Results. Over the years of research, we identified 123 pathogens, which caused 135 diseases in grain crops. The most diverse composition of pathogens was observed on wheat and maize, 64 and 55 pathogens, and, 33 and 41 diseases, respectively. It should be noted a wide range for specialization of the widespread pathogens in the Northern Steppe of Ukraine. The pathogens of smut infects generally a certain type of grain crops, rusts are somewhat less specialized. Less specialized parasites, such as fungi from the genera Fusarium, Helminthosporium, Alternaria cause the same type of diseases in several plant species, and some of them affect different plant organs. Thus, among the pathogens of Fusarium root rot of wheat, rye, barley and maize, the fungus Fusarium moniliforme Sheld. was identified. On the maize, in particular, this pathogen caused seedling mold, root and stem rot, cob rot, and grain mold. Conclusions. It was established that the hydrothermal regime can affect the development of diseases not only due to its compliance with the pathogen's requirements, but also affect the resistance of plants.

Fertilizers are one of the most effective means of influencing the yield and quality of maize grain. Along with macroelements (N, P, K), microelements (B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, Mo) play an important role in the formation of maize grain productivity. The need for these elements is small, but they are absolutely necessary for the growth and development of plants. An effective way to provide plants with trace elements during the growing season can be seed treatment and foliar fertilizing, which will contribute to improving the quality of products, increasing yield and economic efficiency of maize cultivation. The use of growth regulators, complex liquid fertilizers is one of the new and promising directions in the agriculture of Ukraine, but little investigated in the conditions of the Western Forest Steppe. Purpose. To study the influence of growth stimulants and complex microfertilizers on the growth and development of plants, the formation of individual productivity indicators, yield and grain quality of maize in the conditions of the Western Forest-Steppe. Materials and Methods. For 2019–2020, the research was conducted on medium loamy podzolized chernozems. In a two-factor experiment, it was studied: DN Meotyda and DB Khotyn hybrids; growth stimulants (Vympel-K, Vympel-2) and microfertilizers (Oracle seeds, Oracle multicomplex, Oracle colofermin zinc, Oracle colofermin magnesium), which were used for seed treatment or spraying of crops in stages of 3–5 and 7–9 leaves.

Actually, the potential for grain production of all grain crops, especially, winter wheat is quite powerful, especially in the southern region of Ukraine. At the same time, grain yield levels largely depend on influence of many factors: the moisture supply of plants during the growing years, the agricultural background of nutrition, the selection of varietal composition, the tillage method and measures, the plant protection, the weed infestation, and other factors. There are no trifles in plant cultivation, because strict compliance with all the necessary technological requirements will allow you to obtain constant productivity and ensure a gross harvest of grain every year. This is significantly important both for the state's own needs and for exports. Currently, it is not possible to successfully cultivate crops in all fields and agricultural lands due to military operations in Ukraine. The Ukrainian manufacturers should implement previously developed elements of technology and improve new less-known and resource-saving measures. The last aspect also becomes significant in term of the weakening the economic capacity of farms, the increase in the price of material resources and a certain decrease in soil fertility. Under such conditions, the most effective measure is to review of the list of agricultural crops and select the most unpretentious to environmental conditions crops for cultivation, and among them, it is necessary to select crops highly adapted to biotic and abiotic factors of the environment, and varieties that are able to show their genetically programmed biological and eco-nomically valuable characteristics.

Purpose. To establish the role of genetic environment as a factor of directional influence of wheat-rye translocations on baking properties, and to develop breeding techniques for neutralizing the negative effects of translocations to produce genotypes with high grain quality indices of valuable and strong wheat. Materials and Methods. Field experiments were carried out in the fields of the Plant Breeding and Genetic Institute - National Center for Seed Breeding and Variety Research in the 2010–2020.

Results. It was established that the winter wheat grain quality indices were changed (protein content increased, rheological properties decreased) by the introduction of wheat-rye translocations 1AL.1RS, 1BL.1RS into the local gene pool. These changes depend on the genetic environment, hybrid combination and the influence of genetic factors that reduce the negative effect of wheat-rye translocations on baking properties of the lines.

The implementation of new selection criteria will solve the problem of forming the sainfoin resistance to extreme hydrothermal conditions and insufficient moisture. Sainfoin adult plants have a high level of drought resistance, unlike its seedlings, which are sensitive to the air and soil moisture deficit. Therefore, the ability of seedlings to adapt to unfavorable moisture conditions has a positive effect on the further development of plants and the formation of their productivity elements. Purpose. To evaluate the principles of new selection criteria for sainfoin biotypes in the breeding process at the initial stages of organogenesis. Materials and methods. The laying of the nursery of the initial material was carried out using new elements of the technology of growing sainfoin, namely summer sowing. Seeds of samples obtained by positive selection from breeding, seed crops, collections of other scientific institutions and local wild populations of sainfoin were sown. The new criteria for selecting sainfoin biotypes are based on an assessment of the intensity of root system development and the calculation of the coefficient of negative drought effect. General scientific research methods are as follows: field, laboratory, measuring-weight, calculation-comparative, mathematical statistics. Results. In the source material nursery of the first year of life, 113 families (45.7 % of the total) formed a root system with a volume of more than 6.5 cm³ within 2.5 months after sowing. Only 77 families (31.2 % of the total number) had a drought impact coefficient of 0.46 or less, i.e., they are suitable for breeding highly productive populations in arid climatic conditions. Sowing seeds of families selected according to the new criteria ensured that number of families with a strong root system (more than 6.5 cm³) increased from 42.2 % to 57.2 % in the next generation, increased plant survival during the first year of life from 63.2 % to 87.2–95.0 %, in winter – from 83.3 % to 90.4–94.8 %, and resistance to fungal diseases from 81 % to 90–95 %.

Rimsulforon (35 g/ha) + Esterlip (0.15 % working solution); 7. Rimsulforon (25 g/ha) + Esterlip (0.15 % working solution). Results. The combination of rimsulfuron with adhesive Esterlip had the highest technical efficiency compared to other adhesives, in particular, on the redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.) was 75–100% (complete destruction) and lamb’s quarters (Chenopodium album L.) – 85.7–92.9 %, slightly less on common ragweed (Ambrosia arte-misiifolia L.) – 83.3%. Common purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) was highly resistant to almost all combinations of rimsulfuron with adhesives. The highest maize yield of 8.99 t/ha was in the variant with Rimsulfuron (40 g/ha) + Esterlip. Reduced application rate of Esterlip to 25–35 g/ha decreased the maize yield to 7.34–7.65 t/ha, or by 1.34–1.65 t/ha (14.9–18.3 %) due to increased weed infestation of crops. The application of adhesives Trend 90, Synergen, Eco Oil Spray also decreased maize yields to 8.48 t/ha, 8.07 t/ha and 8.62 t/ha, respectively, which was less by 0.51 t/ha (5.6 %), 0.92 t/ha (10.2 %) and 0.37 t/ha (4.1 %). The lowest yield was in the control – 5.30 t/ha due to significant weed infestation of grain crops, which decreased by 3.69 t/ha (41.0 %) compared to the best variant (Rimsulfuron (40 g/ha) + Esterlip). Conclusions. Considering the ongoing development of new adhesives and herbicides for maize, as well as climate changes, it is necessary to continue research in this area to determine the most optimal ratio of herbicide rates with adhesives.
