Abstract
A controlled selection of genotypes with null alleles of the Wx genes was carried out in the process of creating soft wheat forms with starch of the amylopectin type, using PCR analysis with primers to Wx loci of the genome of T. aestivum L. A microsatellite analysis of the selected individual plants that are carriers of three null alleles of the Wx genes (Wx-A1b, Wx-B1b, and WxD1b) and a cluster analysis (UPGMA) allowed for picking out four genotypes that were most closely related to the maternal form, i.e., the Kuyal’nik variety.
