Materials and methods. Evaluation of 78 collection samples of winter wheat for resistance to leaf rust was conducted on an artificial infectious background in the field during 2013 -2014. Results and discussion. Meteorological conditions during years of the study were characterized by fever and unstable air moisture. So, in 2013 during the growing season HTC was 1.3, and in 2014 was 1.6. From the collection of winter wheat, which we studied in 2013-2014 years, 60 samples (76.9%) were high

... ant. 12 samples were immune (15.4%), they were originating mainly from the United States and Hungary. Conclusions. Within two years of research to determine the stability of the collection material of winter wheat against leaf rust in the conditions of artificial infection background. Among the 78 samples there were 12 immune, 48 highly resistant, 11 resistant, 5 moderately susceptible, 2 susceptible.
