title: Evaluation of commercial traits in the accessions of the wheatgrass genus (&lt;i&gt;Agropyron&lt;/i&gt; Gaertn.) under the conditions of Central Yakutia
abstract: Studying plants of the wheatgrass genus as a unique and valuable fodder and phytomeliorating perennial arid xerophytic crop is of great interest to plant breeders, geneticists, biologists, ecologists, agriculturists, and forestry experts in southern regions of Russia, the ex-USSR republics, a number of European and Asia Minor countries, the U. S., Canada, and China. Accessions from the VIR collection representing five wheatgrass species were studied for the first time under the harsh conditions
