The research on wheat accessions was carried out in order to evaluate their grain characteristics. Experiment was set in the agro-ecological conditions of Banja Luka in two experimental years (2015/16 and 2016/17). Ten obsolete wheat cultivars (Brkulja, Ličanka, Partizanka, Vuka, Talijanka, Šiđanka, Orašanka, Lozničanka, Dokučajevskaja and Nemcitaevskaja) and two landraces (Podrašnica and Previja) were used. Following grain characteristics were evaluated: grain length (mm), grain width (mm), grain thickness (mm), grain volume (mm3), grain surface area (mm2), thousand grain weight (g) and grain protein content (%). Significant interactions were found for most of these traits. The relationship between traits was established by correlation analysis. In this study genotypes Brkulja and Šiđanka showed promising for most of the grain characteristics, while Vuka and Partizanka obtained the highest grain protein content.

Genetic polymorphism was investigated among nine spring wheat genotypes, differing in grain protein content, including C-306M10 (mutant of drought tolerant variety C306), DI 8, DI 9, DI 16, DI 20, DI 716, DI 717, DI 728 (near isogenic lines) and HGPC (from Wheat x Rye crosses) using 55 RAPD primers. Out of 55 primers used, only 36 amplified and generated 2(OPG08, OPD05) and 12 (OPD02) bands. A total of 342 amplified products were observed, of which 168 were polymorphic (49.12%) while 174 were monomorphic. The primer OPC-05 and OPC-07 revealed 92.86% and 80.00% polymorphism, respectively and these primers were most useful in characterization of nine wheat genotypes included in this study. The primer OPG-08 showed no polymorphism. It is concluded that the primers OPC-05 and OPC-07 were very effective in distinguishing wheat genotypes in the present study. Twenty six RAPD primers produced a total of 48 unique bands for high protein content that were either present or absent in HGPC a-high grain protein genotype and thus can be used in wheat improvement through marker-assisted selection (for the bands which are unique by their presence). Data (RAPD analysis) were used to generate the similarity coefficients using `siMqual' subprogram of software NTSYS-PC. The similarity coefficient values ranged from 0.97(DI8 and DI9) to 0.68 (DI9 and HGPC), indicating high genetic variability among the selected wheat genotypes. The cluster analysis and principle component analysis broadly divided the wheat genotypes into two groups and showed that DI 9 and HGPC were most divergent genotypes.

A field experiment was conducted for two consecutive seasons during 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 on the Demonstration Farm of the Faulty of Agriculture, University of Kassala at New Half. Nitrogen use efficiencies (i.e. agronomic AE, internal IE, physiological PE and recovery RE) and grain protein content were investigated at different level of watering regimes and organic manure application of wheat (Triticum aestivum L). The watering regime treatments were irrigation every 7, 14 and 21 days, and the nitrogen fertilizer levels were zero, 43, 86 kg N ha-1 without or with 4 tons of chicken manure ha-1. Frequent irrigation, addition of high N level and organic manure significantly increased AE, IE, PE, RE and grain protein content compared to their respective treatments. Mixing of organic manure and nitrogen fertilizer increased AE, IE and RE but resulted in a slightly increase in PE than both treatments when they were added solely. Further, the magnitude of organic manure on AE, IE, RE and grain protein content was significantly greater under normal watering regime. Wheat plants under optimum conditions (frequent watering, high N level plus organic manure) used N, as indicated by AE, PE, IE and RE, more efficiently than under other treatment combination.
