At the first stages (1976-1978), the work on creating primary triticale was carried out; later the creation of genetic variability of secondary forms grounded breeding. The genetic variability was generated by hybridization (intraspecies and interspecies), chemical mutagenesis, etc. Over the past period, 32 grain varieties were registered in the State Register of the Russian Federation, and 6 joint varieties - in Ukraine. The trends in breeding were formed depending on the use direction of grain in industry. The first trend is the creation of new genotypes with good and high baking properties. Another trend in breeding is the creation of genotypes with grain that is optimally acceptable for the production of flour confectionery products. The third trend is the generation of genotypes used as raw materials in the industry of starch products.
