The article describes differences in a response of linseed cultivars of a different genetic and geographical origin to a set of ecological factors. Variability in productivity traits was revealed to be determined in most cases by a genotype and its interaction with growing conditions. The genotype and environmental conditions exert an equal effect on oil accumulation in seeds and its qualitative composition. Based on the data obtained from the linseed collection, the most ecologically stable genotypes, displaying steadily high seed productivity in combination with high content and quality of oil, were selected.
