Long-term, systematic study and the use of part of the gene pool of the varieties of spring (hulled and hull-less) barley all-Russian Institute of plant industry named after N.I. Vavilov, in the conditions of sharply continental climate of Western Siberia, has allowed to create a full working collection for practical breeding in the Siberian research Institute of agriculture. The collection includes the designs and varieties are important for breeding agronomic characteristics: early maturing, drought tolerance, resistance to lodging, high productivity, high number of grains in the main spike (double row, multi-row), high mass of 1000 grains (two-row, multi-row), hull-less, low protein content in grain, high protein content in the grain, resistance to rigid, black and loose smut. The practical result of this 37 year old breeding with a unique collection was the creation of 21 filmy (feed and malting) and hull-less barley varieties, as well as the new improved breeding material for further work. These created varieties in the period from 1982 to the present time were approved for use in the proceedings on 8, 9, 10, 11 regions in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan. The acreage is 800-900 thousand hectares annually. The characteristic varieties for forage Omsk: Omsk 95, Siberian vanguard, Alex, 99 Omsk, Siberia Gift; brewery: 90 Omsk, Omsk 91; hull-less: bare-grained 1 Omsk, Omskaya hull-less 2, may, most of which currently are approved for use in the Russian Federation.
