Triticale Tolerance

x Triticosecale Wittm. ex A. Camus

Triticale tolerance is considered as a complex adaptability to abiotic stresses, evaluated through quantitative indicators of yield stability and response to changing environmental conditions.

In the reference 54 varieties crop Triticale, where this is mentioned in the description.

Triticale tolerance assessment is based on the calculation of specific indices that determine variety resistance: Drought Sensitivity Index (DSI), environmental plasticity coefficient (bi), homeostaticity coefficient (Hom), and coefficient of variation (V, %). DSI values around or below unity indicate increased variety resistance to moisture deficit, and low yield coefficient of variation values indicate high genotype stability to weather fluctuations.

Adaptive properties determine the ability of triticale to realize its genetic potential under risky farming conditions, minimizing yield reduction in unfavorable years. Varieties with a high regression coefficient respond to technological intensification with yield increases. Specific resistance to aluminum or salinity is often verified under laboratory conditions at early ontogenetic stages via biochemical markers, including proline levels and lipid peroxidation intensity.
