Sažetak
In this study the effects of variety and crop year on the quantitative traits in old and modern winter wheat were investigated. The timing and amount of rainfall during the season, the soil’ s ability to hold water, and crop’ s water requirements are all factors which influence quantitative traits. The highest yielding varieties during four years were Klara and Demetra. In contrast, varieties U1 and Sirban Prolifik had the lowest grain yield, but the highest protein content, wet gluten content and sedimentation value. The highest test weight had variety Super Zitarka. Year 2006 was the most favourable for grain yield and test weight, 2006 and 2005 for sedimentation value, while protein and wet gluten content were the highest in 2004. These results suggest that rainfall in growing season affected soil water which changed quantitative traits of winter wheat.
