Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this study, the ecological testing of 139 accessions of the winter wheat collection from Central Asia was conducted on the field plots of the Kazakh Research Institute of Agriculture and Plant Industry (Almaty region, Southeast Kazakhstan) and Krasnovodopad Breeding Station (Turkestan region, South Kazakhstan) during 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 growing seasons. The collection was analyzed using 12 traits: heading date, seed maturation date, vegetation period, plant height, peduncle length, spike length, number of productive spikes, number of kernels per spike (NKS), weight kernel per spike, weight kernel per plants, thousand kernel weight (TKW) and yield per square meter (YM2). The Pearson correlation index showed positive correlations between yield-related traits in the two studied regions. The average YM2 value of 107 and 134 accessions exceeded the check cultivars in Almaty (Zhetisu) and Turkestan (Pamyat 47) regions, respectively. Seven cultivars (Karaspan, Mars 1, Pamyat, Dank, Zhamin, KYIAL, and Talimi) were revealed to be highly productive for three traits (NKS, TKW and YM2) in two regions. The analysis of variance showed that genotype × environment interaction affected the studied traits of the winter wheat collection from Central Asia under Kazakhstan's conditions. The results of this research will be used for further studies related to adaptation and productivity of winter wheat in the breeding program for the selection of best candidate lines and genome-wide association study for yield and yield-related traits in winter wheat.
