Straw cereals, especially wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), are the most widely cultivated plant in the world, grown in over 100 countries, and are a prime commercial source. In this respect, the study was carried out in the growing season 2021-2022, in the agro technology conditions of Secuieni area, Neamț County, Romania, where 10 genotypes of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were studied, including 9 wheat varieties cultivars (Trublion, Centurion, Katarina, Glosa, Aspekt, Izvor, Avenue, Solehio, Alcantara) and 1 wheat hybrids variety (Hyxperia). We have used a sowing density of 500 germinable grains /sm, 360 germinable grains/sm and 250 germinable grains /sm. In this paper are presented data concerning grain yield related to the unit area (kg/ha) and yield components represented by the plant density after emergence (plants/ sm), plant density in spring (main shoots and tillers/ sm), head plant density at the harvest time (ears/ sm), the weight of the grains in the spikes (g/ ear), as well as main physical indices related to the quality, i.e. thousand kernels weight (TGW) and hectolitre mass (HLM).
