Abstract: Wheat ecological division system was suggested to consist of wheat climatic ecological region, geographic ecological region, cultivation ecological region and variety distribution region.And the common wheat area was divided into 5 climatic ecological regions and 20 geographic regions in China, that is Ⅰ"North temperate zone spring wheat.climatic ecological region,which covers three spring .wheat geographic ecological regions including Northeast, North and Northwest of China.ⅡYellow,Huai and Hai River warm temperate zone winter wheat climatic ecological region, which covers six of winter wheat geographic ecological regions as follows:northern late maturing area, Loess Plateau, Jiaodong-Liaodong seacoast, North China Plain,middle reaches of Yellow River and Huaibei Plain.Ⅲ South subtropics (tropics)fall or winter sowing spring wheat climatic ecological region, which covers six fall sowing spring wheat geographic ecological regions as middle and lower reaches plain of Yangtze River, Qin-Ba hilly area, Southern hilly area, Sichuan basin, Yunnan and Guizhou Plateau, and one winter sowing spring wheat geographic ecological region in South China.Ⅳ Xinjiang inland winter/spring wheat climatic ecological region, which covers two geographic ecological regions :North Xinjiang spring winter wheat and South Xinjiang winter spring wheat.Ⅴ Qinghai and Tibet Plateau spring winter wheat climatic ecological region,in which two geographic regions as Qinghai spring Wheat and Tibet winter spring wheat were included.
