Abstract:
New varietal samples of cereals (wheat-rye, barley, emmer) obtained at the Research Center of
the Plant Gene pool and selection of the Armenian National Agrarian University were tested in
arid and rainfed zones of the Republic of Armenia. Wild forms of wheat and barley served as the
paternal form for obtaining the varietal samples.
As a result of research, it was found that the yield of the obtained varietal samples under arid
conditions exceeded the traditionally cultivated in these zones varieties of wheat-rye, barley and
emmer, by 8.1; 9.2; 7.7 kg/ha, respectively. Their introduction into production can be extremely
important on the way to solving the problem of climate change in the context of global warming,
and provide high profits for farmers. |
