Wheat has been bred from the very beginning of the process of winter wheat breeding in Estonia for human consumption. During 1990...1995 the average grain yield of the control variety was exceeded by the varieties 'Joni', 'Sani', 'Eka' and by selection numbers 'Carsten VIII' x 'Minovskaja jubileinaja' and 'Severokubanskaja'. Varieties 'Joni', 'Sani', 'Eka' and 'Kalvi' had 7.8...23 per cent shorter straw and 18...23 per cent better lodging resistance than the control variety. The speed of forming CO2 and the volume of dough in the control variety were exceeded by 'Joni' and by selection numbers 'Carsten VIII' x 'Mironovskaja jubileinaja' and 'Russard' x 'Yuva' 5.2.5. (10.2 per cent). Content and quality of gluten of different winter wheat depended more on the sites of production than on the genetic properties
