Breeding lines of durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) with increased cold
resistance were obtained through the screening method. Their cold resistance
was tested during three successive years under different hardening conditions
and temperature regimes of freezing; it was compared to the cold resistance of
some durum and common winter wheat cultivars used in production, and to model
cultivars from the cold resistance evaluation scale of common wheat varieties.
