Modern genetic methods of breeding leaded to the obtaining of new wheat germplasm, which can be an important source for higher yield potential. The present study describes the data obtained by 10 synthetic amphidiploid lines for some morphological and quantitative characters and their correlation. The analysis of variance for analyzed characters showed highly significant differences among the genotypes under study, indicating the presence of considerable amount of variability in the lines. E6-A line combined well yield, protein and starch content while the lines with highest length and width of grains presented the lowest yield.
