Winter rye varieties L 2171-P and L 2177-N represent a simple hybrid created based on the parent component ZU Forzetti. These varieties are included in the State Register and are suitable for cultivation in all crop zones. The plants are characterized by a diploid form, dwarfism, and a semi-prostrate bush type, which ensures ease of care and harvest.
Morphological features include a colored coleoptile and medium heading time, allowing the hybrids to adapt to various climatic conditions. Stem pubescence under the ear is weak, and the waxy coating on the sheath of the flag leaf is medium, which contributes to resistance to adverse factors. The leaf following the flag leaf is short, and the ear has a horizontal position, medium density, and length.
The grain of these varieties is small, with a dark aleurone layer coloration, which may affect the quality of the final product. Such characteristics make winter rye L 2171-P and L 2177-N attractive for cultivation in various agro-climatic conditions, ensuring a stable yield and high grain quality.
