Using macro- and micromutation for winter wheat breading

  • M. Nazarenko

Abstract

The frequencies of macro- and micromutants of the winter wheat varieties Panna, Smuglyanki, Odesskaya 333 and Matilda have been investigated. Perspective mutants by productivity and protein content have been selected. Role of micro- and macromutants in obtained new perspective lines has been investigated.
