Abstract
The wheat cultivar Haider-2000 was first tested at the Cereal Crop Research Institute (CCRI), Pirsabak (NWFP, Pakistan) in 1996-97 in a nursery of 282 lines. The lines which showed resistance to stripe [ Puccinia striiformis ] and leaf rust [ Puccinia hordei ] and gave higher yields were advanced to preliminary yield trials for two years at CCRI. As the ability of the lines regarding grain yield and disease reaction were confirmed, the lines were tested at different locations in the province during 1999-2000. Showing comparative advantage over the controls, the line was evaluated in the National Uniform Wheat Yield (NUWYT) trials during 2000-01 and 2001-02. Haider-2000 has earned 5th position in the NUWYT trials (2000-01, RF) on national as well as provincial level. In 2001-02, Haider-2000 has achieved 3rd position in national trials and 2nd position in provincial trials (NUWYT, RF). Its chapati quality is excellent. The variety was approved by the Provincial Seed Council in 2000 and by the Variety Evaluation Committee (Islamabad) in 2002 for rainfed areas of NWFP for normal sowing
