A promising direction in the elite seed growing flower seeds is to  create a  population with the given ratios decorative signs and, above all, painting flowers (racemes),  which has a  wide  range of  variability.   Maintaining constant these crosspollination  populations  can be performed using different  selection methods (mass, individual, inbreeding). The aim of this research was to develop methods of elite seed-growing population for Carnation Turkish. Source material served as seeds superdwarf  population  "Early Dwarf Mixed", derived  from  FSBSI "All-Russian Research Institute of Medicinal and  Aromatic Plants». Research conducted on plots FSBSI «Federal Scientific  Vegetable  Center». After the population has  been  designed  for  maintaining constant these traits in  subsequent reproductions. As  a  result of breeding work has created a new different colour population entitled "Rainbow". When analyzing the cleavage "tag coloring flower" in population  "Rainbow"  Carnation Turkish within a few reproductions, it was found that: the range of variability of coloring a flower includes 5 major groups - pink, rose, red, salmon, white; red colour is dominant towards pink and salmon, respectively;  for coloring a flower meet at least 5 genes: one controls the general predecessor synthesis of Ant-pigments, 2  gene dominant responsibility  for pink and red colour, and their recessive  alleles for pink and salmon, respectively;  2 gene suppressors  are the synthesis  of Antpigments cyaniding and pelargonidin.
