Abstract
The main result of the durum research programme of the Cereal Research Institute (CRI) is the successful introduction of durum wheat into Hu ngary. The acreage of durum wheat in Hungary was about 14000 ha in 199 6. The registered durum cultivars of CRI are the following: GK Minaret , GK Basa, GK Tiszadur, GK Novodur. These winter durum varieties gener ally yield only 15-30% less than the most widely produced winter bread wheat cultivars (T. aestivum L). The yield of spring durum varieties is 40-50% less than the yield of winter bread wheats.
