DOKA

DOKA is a variety of soft winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) with a medium-early maturation period and a dwarf growth habit. It is characterized by high drought resistance and above-average winter hardiness, ensuring stable development and crop preservation under various climatic conditions. The variety belongs to the lutescens group, features an awnless ear type and short stalk, which contribute to resistance to lodging and shattering. The 1000-kernel weight is approximately 37.7 g, indicating good grain quality with strong baking properties. DOKA is recommended for cultivation in the regions of the North Caucasian and Lower Volga areas, including Krasnodar and Stavropol Krai, the Republic of Adygea, as well as the Prikuban and Southern zones of Rostov Oblast. The average yield of the variety in these regions reaches 3.49 t/ha, with maximum indicators up to 5.47 t/ha, which is 3.4 c/ha higher than the average standard. The variety demonstrates moderate resistance to brown rust and high resistance to yellow rust and powdery mildew, but is susceptible to glume blotch, fusarium, and loose smut. DOKA possesses high resistance to stress factors, including root rots and drought, making it a reliable choice for intensive farming. Due to its characteristics, the variety is suitable for universal use and capable of providing a stable and high yield with the proper agronomic approach. Its resistance to lodging and grain shattering contributes to crop preservation and improved product quality.
