Wheat OMGAU 100

OMGAU 100 is a high-yielding soft spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) variety intended for cultivation in the northern forest-steppe, forest-steppe, and steppe zones of Western Siberia, as well as on the Southern Urals. The variety is characterized by a medium-late maturation period and medium plant height, which ensures its adaptation to various climatic conditions. It is distinguished by high drought resistance, making it a reliable choice for regions with insufficient moisture. The average yield of the variety during cultivation was about 4.1 t/ha, while in the steppe zone, the maximum indicators reached 4.46 t/ha.

OMGAU 100 possesses comprehensive resistance to major wheat diseases, including full resistance to stem rust and high resistance to brown rust, thanks to valuable genes identified using DNA markers. Additionally, the variety is resistant to powdery mildew, lodging, shattering, and grain sprouting on the stalk, which contributes to yield preservation and improved grain quality. These characteristics make it particularly attractive to agronomists seeking stable and high-quality production.

The grain of the OMGAU 100 variety is distinguished by good baking qualities and a high content of valuable microelements, such as zinc (up to 70 mg/kg), which increases its nutritional value. The grain quality meets the requirements for strong and valuable wheat, making it in demand both for the domestic market and for processing. The variety is widely used in agronomy to obtain high-quality grain with high technological properties.
