The winter wheat varieties Asterion, Sofru, Lazuly, Avenu, and Pibrak were examined. The objective of the study was to determine and compare elements of productivity, grain yield, and some qualitative measurements of five common wheat types in southeastern Bulgaria. The results demonstrate that the assessed varieties displayed the highest values of productive structural elements in Avenu cultivar. The thousand kernel grain- and Test Weight of the Asterion variety were the highest. The grain of the Sofru cultivar had the greatest vitreousness. The Lazuly variety indicate better technological features of grain (wet gluten, dry gluten, and gluten extension), compared to the other examined common wheat varieties.
