Abstract

INCASoy-36 variety was obtained after
irradiating seeds from INCASoy-15 at doses of 240 Gy 60Co
gamma rays. This variety is adapted to summer and winter
seedings; however, it can also be used in spring. Besides, its
yields can reach up to 3,5-4,0 t.ha-1 grains in summer and spring
seedings. It is tolerant to the main pests and diseases; it is
especially resistant to Meloidogyne incognita attacks. During
the adverse spring season, seeds have been damage tolerant.
It can assure high productions with low inputs; therefore, it is
feasible to Cuban agriculture.
