Abstract
The effect of variants of the action of allele lsb differing in strength of manifestation on productivity of buckwheat plants against the background of a recessive homozygote for gene D is studied. An increase of reduction of the branching potential of upper branches leads to a decrease in both biological and grain productivity of plants. However, such plants are much more tolerant to thick planting and to a lesser degree they reduce productivity in a dense crop.
