Abstract: | Highly viable, medium-early variety of facultative triticale named Viktor was created by crossing the genetically divergent parents, varieties Jugo and Bogo. This variety created by the Agricultural Institute of the Republic of Srpska, Banja Luka, has successfully combined the genes responsible for high grain yield potential, good processing quality (raw materials for industry and animal feed), excellent resistance to low temperatures, very good resistance to lodging and plant diseases.
Variety Viktor in three-year trials of the Federal Institute of Agriculture, Sarajevo, achieved significantly higher yields than the standard variety Goran, the difference amounted to 655 kg / ha. Variety Viktor is mature 6 days earlier compared to the standard. The average raw protein content in the three-year study at two localities was 11.7%. The new variety of winter BL triticale has a wide adaptability, a satisfactory yield stability, and a good level of tolerance to drought. |
