Variety traits

Maturity group — soft wheat

Triticum aestivum L.

A trait characterizing the duration of the growing season of soft wheat from emergence to full maturity or heading.

In the reference 1 598 varieties crop Bread wheat, where this is mentioned in the description.

In the state variety testing system, soft wheat varieties are classified by the length of the growing season: early-maturing up to 100 days, mid-early 101–110 days, mid-maturing 111–120 days, and late-maturing 121–130 days. Under field conditions, the date of heading is considered a more reliable indicator of biological earliness, as subsequent developmental phases are more strongly influenced by external weather conditions.

The selection of a maturity group is a tool for adaptation to arid conditions, allowing a variety to avoid critical moisture deficits during the grain-filling phase. Fertilization strategy, seeding rates, as well as the dynamics of yield component formation and grain quality indicators, including protein and gluten content, depend on the maturity group assignment.
