Abstract

Yield and its components were studied in 54 wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties resistant to Helminthosporium sativum, coming from the International Maize and Wheat Breeding Center (CIMMYT), using a multivariate procedure by the main component approach, with the aim of evaluating its performance under the tropical conditions of Cuba. Results proved that wheat collection was agronomically variable either for yield of for the weight of 1000 grains and grain number per spike. Eleven different groups were made up according to every variable value mentioned; the varieties from groups I, IV, VI and X were notable. Yields were high (1.5-2 t.ha-1) for the sowing conditions of our country.
