abstract = "Wheat is an important cereal species which use for production of food products, alcoholic
beverages, pharmaceutical products, biofuels. Wheat seed is one of the most important source
of protein as well as carbohydrate, fat, vitamins and mineral elements in food for human and
nutrition. The evolutionary development of wheat is characterized by changes in
morphological and anatomical characteristics, changes in the genome that are associated with
adaptability to different environmental conditions and changes in biological and economic
yield and quality traits. During the period from 10 thousand years ago until today, man,
through his breeding work, and creating new genotypes, has influenced the changes in plant
architecture, yield, quality and adaptability to biotic and abiotic conditions. The grain yields
significantly increased in the 1960s and 1970s because farmers rapidly adopted the new
varieties and cultivation methods of the so-called “green revolution”. Breeders have created
and can create in the future new wheat genotypes with improved efficiency in the use of N,
which will contribute to achieving higher and stable yields, better grain quality and
environmental protection. Today, breeders have choice of two direction. In addition to this
approach, today breeders create varieties with low content of storage proteins (gluten), with
higher efficiency of nitrogen uptake, adapted to lower doses of nitrogen nutrition and higher
efficiency of nitrogen uptake in order to reduce unused nitrogen and environmental
protection. Modern biotechnological methods can contribute to the preservation and increase
of genetic variability, more efficient breeding of varieties that are economical in production,
with the desired technological and nutritional quality for the production of healthy food.",
