Наталья Владимировна Давыдова The paper presents an analysis of spring soft wheat varieties of different periods of variety change according to ecological plasticity and stability when cultivated in different climatic conditions (2014-2019). To increase the yield of spring soft wheat varieties, much attention is paid to the devlopment of high-intensity forms that respond positively to additional investments in agricultural technology. These varieties must also demonstrate high yield stability as well as plasticity in relation to environmental factors - i.e. the ability to form the high yields in wide range of environmental conditions. In the course of the study, the authors carried out an environmental assessment of ten varieties of four major groups by yield in a five-year field experiment. The yield upper limits, as well as an indicator of stress resistance, were estimated. Based on these data, statistical coefficients of their ecological plasticity and stability, as well as the stability variant, were analyzed. The Agatha and Esther spring wheat varieties showed the most responsiveness to the improvement of cultivation conditions. They can be considered the most plastic varieties. The highest stability index was observed in the Radmir, Amir, MIS, Zlata and Lyubava varieties. The most promising among the new spring soft wheat varieties is the Radmira variety, which has the best adaptive potential, which incidentally allows it to form a stable high level ofproductivity in changeable climatic conditions. Among the varieties of earlier periods, promising cultivars include the Zlata variety. Its high adaptability is comfirmed by its cultivation in 1,2,3,4 and 7 regions of Russia.
