Abstract
A solution to problems of breeding identification of the best genotypes in plant populations is proposed. It is shown that breeding identification is possible in a very broad range of trait combinations with rather weak requirements imposed on the background trait. During breeding identification, the value of genetic variance has almost no effect on the quality of identification.
