The variety was selected by pedigree method from the cross of "Jingdong 8 / Heixiaomai 76", and the pedigree record was 97 Dongjia (2)-0-1-1-3-3-0. Nongda 3753 was officially approved by Beijjing Crop Variety Approval Committee in 2006. This variety was winter wheat with the features of purple kernel, high yield, high selenium content and strong gluten. This paper described the characters, selection process and cultivation techniques of Nongda 3753.
