Using the gene pool of CIMMYT cultivars and lines in spring durum wheat breeding in Western Siberia by V. S. Yusov, М. G. Evdokimov, M. N. Kiriakova, D. A. Glushakov

“…Principal component analysis was carried out using the R version of the 4.0.3 package.Results. The studies have shown that CIMMYT lines differ from local cultivars and lines in disease resistance (brown rust, stem rust, hard smut, and powdery mildew), test weight, pasta-making properties, and lodging resistance, but under the conditions of Western Siberia they are significantly inferior in adaptability to local cultivars and lines and suffer greatly from drought, especially during the grain-filling period. …”
