Five Romanian and eight Serbian cultivars were evaluated in the conditions of South Bulgaria for nine agronomic traits. Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) permitted to group the cultivars in two main clusters divided each one in three sub-clusters. The most distant, according to the complex of studied characters, were the cultivars Gruia and Rusiya and the closest ones Gruia and Litera, Faur and Boema, Evropa 90 and Gora. A Principal Component Analysis (PCA) allowed identifying cultivars of potential interest as parental lines for further use in winter bread wheat breeding, as Boema (short stem, high number of grains per spike), Gora (high grain lysine content) and Rusiya (high number of spikelets per spike and thousand kernel weight).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
