The task of Latvian wheat breeders is to create new varieties, suitable for the Baltic climatic conditions, high yielding, resistant to lodging and diseases, with grain quality appropriate for producers. The winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) variety ‘Brencis’ (‘Pamjati Fedina’/’Pegassos’) was developed at Institute of Agricultural Resources and Economics Stende Research Centre (2001 to 2015) as a result of hybridization and repeated selection. Originators are Vija Strazdiņa, Valentīna Fetere and Maija Ceraukste. The variety is characterized with good winter hardiness (7–9 point), growing period 225 days (calculating from 1 January), and average yield 9.64 t haE-1. Grain quality is suitable for food production – protein content is 124 g kgE-1, gluten content 250 g kgE-1, Zeleny index 47.8, falling number 285 s. Average plant height of variety ‘Brencis’ is 87 cm, resistance to lodging is high (9 point), but resistance to main leaf diseases is moderate.
