Grain yield and yield components of prospective homozygous winter wheat genotypes

During the two-year research on the experimental field of the Grain Center in Kragujevac, the 1,000-grain weight, hectoliter mass and grain yield of ten prospective homozygous genotypes of wheat were analyzed. During the growing season, the average annual temperature and precipitation were favorable for growing wheat. In both growing seasons, precipitation was 120 mm more than the annual average, and 220 mm more in the second year. Genotype L- 1/59 had the highest grain yield and the highest 1,000-grain weight, while the hectoliter mass was more or less equal to other genotypes. All genotypes had a satisfactory 1,000-grain weight ranging from 43 to 50 g. On average, all analyzed lines had a hectoliter mass greater than 80 for both years, which ranks them as high quality.
