Abstract

Improving resistance to preharvest sprouting is an important target of breeding programs, but this goal is difficult to achieve, because the preharvest sprouting resistance is a complex trait influenced by the weather before and during harvest time. The aim of this paper was presentation of some problems and perspectives of breeding forms resistant to preharvest sprouting. The investigation carried out in Plant Breeding and Acclimatization Institute Department of Cereals in the years 1996–2001 and a short review of some new papers in this domain are reported.
