Variety traits
Triticum monococcum L.
The productivity of Triticum monococcum L. is assessed by spike structure components, with typical yields of 1–2 t/ha. The crop is characterized by lower productive tillering and smaller grains compared to common wheat.
In the reference 3 varieties crop Einkorn wheat, where this is mentioned in the description.
The productivity of einkorn wheat is determined by structural components, including productive tillering, spike length, the number of spikelets and grains per spike, and the 1000-grain weight. Typical yield indicators for this species are 1–2 t/ha, which is significantly lower than the potential of modern common wheat varieties.
Biological features of the species include a high rate of shoot emergence with low productive tillering and a weak yield response to nitrogen fertilizer application. The hulled nature of the grain and the physical parameters of the spike reduce the crop's competitiveness in intensive farming, while ensuring stability in poor soils.
