Registration of Agassiz Wheat (Reg. No. 688).
D. J. Cox, J. D. Miller, and B. L. D'Appolonia
'AGASSIZ', PI 478771, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum
aestivum L.) (Reg. no. 688) originating as a F3-derived line from the
cross YTO-117/'Trader' made at the North Dakota Agricultural
Experiment Station in 1969. The pedigree of YTO-117 is
'Yogo'/2/'Turkey'/'Oro'. Agassiz was designated ND7687 while tested
in the 1977 through 1982 North Dakota yield trials and the 1983 and
9184 Northern Regional Performance Nursery.
Over 5 years in the easter half of North Dakota, Agassiz
outyielded 'Roughrider' by 10%. Agassiz is 1 day later in maturity
than Roughrider, slightly less winterhardy, and 3 to 4 cm taller. The
spike of Agassiz is awned, middense, and fusiform. The glumes are
white and glabrous, shoulders are midwide and oblique, and beaks are
acute. The kernels are hard, red; kernel shape is ovate and midlong,
with midwide and shallow crease. The brush is midsize and not
collared.
Agassiz has shown field resistance to the prevalent races of stem
rust (incited by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. and
Henn.). Seedlings and adults were moderately susceptible or
susceptible to cultures of stem rust races 15(TNM), 151(QSH), and 11-
32-113(RTQ) in greenhouse tests. It is susceptible to leaf rust
incited by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici and has
displayed intermediate field reactions to tan spot incited by
Pyrenophora tritici-repentis (Died). Drechs.
The milling and baking quality of Agassiz has been satisfactory.
It was faulted for lower loaf volume than Roughrider and slightly
inferior crumb color and grain and texture. It is similar to
Roughrider in grain and flour protein percentage.
Agassiz was named and released by the North Dakota Agricultural
Experiment Station in 1983. Breeders seed will be maintained by the
North Dakota Agric. Exp. Stn., Fargo, ND 58105.

Registration of Agate Wheat (Reg. No. 620).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, and D. V.
McVey
'AGATE' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.), CI 17463, is a
hard red winter wheat selected in the F4 generation from the cross
'Ponca'/ 2*'Cheyenne'/3/ 'Kenya 58'/ 'Newthatch'/2/ 2*(Cheyenne/
'Tenmarq'/ 'Mediterranean'/ 'Hope), F1 with 'Scout' made in 1962 at
the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station. Developed cooperatively
by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the AR, SEA, USDA,
it was tested in the 1972-75 Nebraska yield rials, the 1972-76
Northern Regional Performance Nursery, and 1976 Southern Regional
Performance Nursery as NE69442.
Agate is a medium to late maturing winter wheat. It is similar
to 'Scout 66' in height. The spike is awned, oblong to tapering,
long, and mid-dense; it is usually carried erect at maturity. Glumes
are white, glabrous, medium long, and medium wide, with rather narrow
and mostly sloping shoulders. Beaks are moderately long to long and
acuminate. Awns are white, 4 to 7 cm long. The kernels are red,
medium hard, elliptical, moderately long, and large, with a kernel
weight slightly heavier than Scout 66. The kernels have a mid-sized
germ, shallow crease, rounded cheeks, and short brush; they are not
collared.
Agate is similar to Scout 66 in winterhardiness and yield
potential, but was developed to provide growers with a cultivar of
another maturity class. Agate has good milling properties. Its
baking characteristics are similar to those of 'Lancer' and include a
medium dough mixing time, good mixing tolerance, and satisfactory loaf
volume potential.
Agate has broad resistance to stem rust (incited by Puccinia
graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.) and moderate
resistance to wheat streak mosaic virus, Septoria leaf blotch (incited
by Septoria tritici Rob. ex. Desm.), and Hessian fly [Mayetiola
destructor (Say)]. It is either susceptible to other diseases and
insects or its reaction is unknown.
Named and released jointly by the Nebraska Agricultural
Experiment Station and the AR, SEA, USDA. Agate is protected
(Certificate 7700093) under the Plant Variety Protection Act, Public
Law 91-577, by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the
USDA and may be sold only as a class of certified seed. Seed classes
recognized are breeder, foundation, registered, and certified. The
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station will maintain breeder seed.

Registration of Agent Wheat (Reg. No. 471).
E. L. Smith, A. M. Schlehuber, H. C. Young, Jr. and L. H. Edwards
'AGENT' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.),
CI 13523, was developed by the Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment
Station and released in 1967. It originated as an F5 head row
selection from the cross: 'Triumph' X Triticum spp.-Agropyron
elongatum. The variety is the result of a program initiated in
Oklahoma in 1947 for the purpose of transferring leaf rust resistance
from Agropyron to common wheat. The Triticum-Agropyron parent was a
leaf rust-resistant selection obtained from Kansas which was
designated KS 464708. This selection resulted from an inter-generic
cross made earlier by W. J. Sando, ARS, USDA. The final cross
involving Triumph was made in 1950 at the Oklahoma Agricultural
Experiment Station for the specific purpose of combining the leaf rust
resistance of KS 464708 with the desirable characteristics of Triumph.
The leaf rust resistance to Agent was derived from Agropyron and
behaves as if controlled by a single dominant gene. Cytological
analysis (E.E. Sebesta, unpublished data) indicates that the variety
represents a natural translocation involving wheat chromosome 3D
(XVI).
Agent has winter growth habit, is midseason in maturity, and
midtall in plant height. The stem is white and strong; the spike is
awned, oblong to fusiform, middense, and erect to inclined; the glumes
are glabrous, white, long, and narrow; the shoulders are narrow and
apiculate; the beaks are midwide, acuminate, and vary from 7 to 16 mm
in length; the awns are white and 4 to 10 cm in length; the kernels
are red, midlong, hard, and ovate; the germ is midsized; the crease is
midwide and middeep; the cheeks are rounded to angular; the brush is
midsized and midlong. Although Agent is classed as a midseason
variety, it is somewhat variable in date of heading. In some cases it
is similar to Triumph in heading date. In other seasons it is as much
as 10 days later.
The outstanding characteristics of Agent are resistance to leaf
rust and good forage (grazing) properties. It is resistant in the
seedling stage as well as the adult plant stage to all known races of
leaf rust. In forage production, as evaluated by clipping trials, it
has been superior to all other wheat varieties commonly grown in
Oklahoma. Since heavily rusted wheat plants appear to be extremely
unpalatable to cattle, Agent should have special merit for fall and
winter pasture in areas where fall epidemics of leaf rust occur.
In addition to its leaf rust resistance Agent also has moderate
resistance to some races of stem rust and has some tolerance to
septoria leaf blotch. It is similar to Triumph with regard to other
diseases. The test weight of Agent is slightly lower than that of
Triumph. On a statewide basis it is slightly lower in grain yield
than Triumph; however, it yields as well as Triumph in the eastern
part of Oklahoma. Agent is very similar to Triumph in milling and
baking characteristics, except that it is lower in water absorption
potential of the dough. The primary weakness of Agent is its lack of
winterhardiness. It is less winterhardy than Triumph; therefore, it
should not be grown in areas with severe winter conditions.
The Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment Station will be responsible
for maintenance of breeder seed.

REGISTRATION OF AKRONA WHEAT (Reg. No. 246)
J. A. Clark
AKRONA (C.I. 6881) was developed by the Office of Cereal Crops
and Diseases, Bureau of Plant Industry, United States Department of
Agriculture, at the Akron Field Station, Akron, Colo. It is the
result of a selection from Arnautka, C. I. 1493, made in 1912 by Clyde
McKee. The value of this particular selection (1493-7-12) was
determined in nursery and plat experiments conducted by F. A. Coffman,
who applied for its registration. The Akrona variety should follow
the Monad (Reg. No. 212) in the classification. Its superior
characters are early maturity, high yield under Colorado conditions,
and high gasoline color value, indicating its superiority for the
manufacture of macaroni. The variety has been increased and
distributed for commercial growing in Colorado. Yields obtained at
the Akron Field Station in replicated plat experiments during the five
years from 1920 to 1924, inclusive, in comparison with those of
Arnautka, the parent variety, are as follows:

REGISTRATION OF ANDREWS WHEAT (Reg. No. CV-765).
Edwin Donaldson, G. W. Bruehl, and G. L. Rubenthaler
'ANDREWS', a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg.
no. CV-765, PI 512282) was developed by the College of Agriculture and
Home Economics of Washington State University in cooperation with the
USDA-ARS. It was jointly released to growers by the Washington
Agricultural Research Center and USDA-ARS in 1987 for culture in the
snowmold (caused by Typhula spp.) region of north central Washington.
Andrews was selected from a snowmold trial in Douglas county in 1977
as a plant row derived from a single F3 plant from the cross PI167822
/CI13438/2/CI19342/'Itana'/3/CI17271/'Sturdy' made in 1973
Andrews has winter habit, early to midseason maturity, and
semidwarf stature. It has a midstrong white stem with an awned,
oblong to fusiform, middense to lax inclined spike. Its glumes are
glabrous, white, and midlong. The awns are white, 2 to 7 cm long.
The kernels of Andrews are red, midlong, hard, ovate to elliptical in
shape, with a small germ and a midlong, midsize brush. The crease is
midwide and middeep. The cheeks are rounded.
Andrews was tested as WA 006820 in Washington trials during the
crop years 1980 to 1986 and in Western Regional Hard Red Winter Wheat
nursery during the crop years 1982 to 1986. The yield performance of
Andrews has been consistently better than 'Weston', 'Hatton', or
'Manning' in Douglas county where snowmold is a serious problem.
Inconsistent comparative yields have been obtained at other locations
in Washington. Test weight is comparable to that of 'Neeley' and
Manning, but _20 g L-1 lighter than that of Hatton.
Winterhardiness of Andrews is less than that of Hatton or Weston.
Andrews has typically poor semidwarf emergence characteristics and a
midlength coleoptile similar to 'Sprague' and 'Lewjain'. Andrews has
better tolerance to snowmold than Weston or Manning, but somewhat less
than Sprague. Andrews is moderately resistant (mature plant type) to
local races of stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. and
good resistance to common bunt caused by Tilletia caries (DC.) Tul. &
C. Tul., possessing genes Bt4, Bt8, and additional unknown factors.
It is only moderately resistant to dwarf bunt caused by Tilletia
controversa Kühn in Rabenh. Andrews is susceptible to leaf rust
caused by Puccinia recondita Roberge ex Desmaz., stem rust caused by
Puccinia graminis Pers.:Pers., strawbreaker foot rot caused by
Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides (Fron) Deighton, and dryland foot
caused by Fusarium culmorum (Wm. G. Sm.) Sacc.
The USDA-ARS Western Quality Laboratory at Pullman, WA, has shown
that, after milling, the flour yield and loaf volume for Andrews are
slightly lower than those of Hatton or Wanser, with the flour protein
and optimal bread mix time equal to those of Hatton or Wanser.
Breeder and foundation seed of Andrews will be maintained by the
Washington State Crop Improvement Association under the supervision of
the Agronomy and Soils Department, Washington State University,
Pullman, Washington, 99164-6420.

Registration of Apache Wheat (Reg. No. 406).
E. G. Heyne
APACHE, CI 12122, is a hard red winter wheat adapted to the high
plains wheatlands of eastern New Mexico. It was distributed to
farmers in New Mexico in 1950. The development of Apache was a
cooperative enterprise involving Oklahoma, Kansas, New Mexico, and the
Crops Research Division, ARS, USDA. Application for registration was
made by R. W. Livers.
Apache is a selection from the cross Cheyenne and Early Blackhull
made by V. C. Hubbard, at Woodward, Oklahoma in 1932. The final
selection was made by A. F. Swanson at the Fort Hays Experiment
Station in Kansas in 1937. Apache was evaluated in the southern
regional performance tests during 1945 through 1947 and tested
extensively in Kansas in 1946-1948. Because of its good performance
in New Mexico, John Carter at the Clovis Experiment Station increased
and named the variety. In 1961 it was grown on about 5,000 acres in
New Mexico and 150,000 acres in Kansas.
The superior characteristic of Apache is its ability to produce
high yields in dry areas of the Southern Great Plains. It has no
resistance to diseases and lodges severely when conditions favor tall
growth. Under drier conditions of the western part of the Southern
Great Plains, lodging generally is not a problem. Apache is a mid-
season to early variety, being 1 to 2 days later than Wichita.
Performance data on Apache are given in Table 4.
The plant is mid-tall; the spike is awned, rather long and lax
and nodding at maturity; the glumes are white; the kernels are red,
fairly long and narrow, similar to Turkey but larger; and the straw is
weak. The baking characteristics are only fair, having a short mixing
time. It is similar to Pawnee in many quality traits.

'ARAPAHOE' (Reg. no. 743, PI 518591, NE82656) is a hard red
winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS. It was
jointly released to seed producers in 1988 by the developing
institutions and the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station.
Arapahoe was selected from the cross 'Brule'/3'Parker'*4/'Agent'
/2/'Beloterkovskaia 198'/'Lancer' made in 1976 by J.W. Schmidt.
Arapahoe is an increase of a F3-derived F4 line that was identified in
1982 and tested as NE82656.
Arapahoe is an awned, white-glumed cultivar. The spike is mid-
dense, tapering, and erect to slightly inclined at maturity. The
beaks are accuminate and medium in length. The glumes are square
shouldered and narrow. When compared to Brule and 'Redland', Arapahoe
is 1% percent higher in flour protein content, slightly more winter-
hardy, heavier in grain volume wt., and has a slightly longer
coleoptile. Arapahoe is similar to Brule and Redland in flowering
date, kernel wt., and plant height. Arapahoe has moderately strong
straw, but not as strong as Brule or Redland. The kernel is red
colored, hard textured, elliptical to ovate, not collared, and midlong
with rounded cheeks, midsized germ, midsized brush, and a shallow
crease.
Arapahoe has been tested in Nebraska yield nurseries starting in
1983, in the Northern Regional Performance Nursery from 1986 to 1988,
and in the Southern Regional Performance nursery in 1988. Based upon
23 location-years of testing in the Nebraska Varietal Tests (1986 and
1987), the yield of Arapahoe was 108% of Brule and 106% of
'Siouxland'. Based upon 14 location-years of testing in the Nebraska
Intrastate Nursery (1985-1987), the yield of Arapahoe was 114% of
Brule and 106% of Siouxland.
Arapahoe is moderately resistant to the currently prevalent races
of leaf rust (incited by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex. Desm. f. sp.
tritici Eriks.) and stem rust (incited by P graminis Pers. f. sp.
tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.; contains Sr6, Sr17, and Sr24) and is
believed to be moderately tolerant to Cephalosporium stripe (incited
by Cephalosporium graminis Nis. and Ika.). It expresses the
heterogeneous reaction to the Great Plains biotype of Hessian fly
(Mayetiola destructor Say), which is believed to indicate the
'Marquillo'-'Kawvale' type of resistance. It is susceptible to soil-
borne mosaic and wheat streak mosaic viruses.
The overall break making properties of Arapahoe are very similar
to Scout 66. Arapahoe has medium dough strength characteristics and
is slightly lower in flour yield than Scout 66. The kernels of
Arapahoe has been classified, using the existing standards, by the
Federal Grain Inspection Service as being hard red winter wheat.
Breeder seed of Arapahoe will be maintained by the Nebraska
Agricultural Experiment Station. Arapahoe will be submitted for
registration and plant variety protection under P.L. 91-55 with the
certification option.

Registration of Arbon Wheat (Reg. No. 628).
D. W. Sunderman, M. M. Stearns, and J. A. Hoffmann
'ARBON,' a hard red winter wheat, (Triticum aestivum L. em.
Thell.) CI 17746, was developed cooperatively by AR-SEA-USDA and the
Idaho Agric. Exp. Stn. It was selected as an F3 plant from an area in
the 1970 snow mold nursery where plants were too thin to positively
identify. However, the agronomic characteristics of the cultivar and
the known parentage of lines being grown in the nursery have led us to
conclude that the cultivar is from the cross CI
14106/'Columbia'/2/'McCall.' Arbon was tested in the 1974 and 1977
Idaho trials and in the 1976 and 1977 Western Regional Hard Red Winter
Wheat Nursery as IDO114. It was released jointly by the Idaho Agric.
Exp. Stn. and AR-SEA-USDA in 1978.
Arbon is an awned, white-glumed cultivar of medium height and
maturity. It has averaged 5 cm shorter and has shown better
resistance to lodging than 'Jeff.' Spikes are erect to inclined,
fusiform, and middense. Glumes are midlong and midwide with narrow to
midwide, oblique to square shoulders. Beaks are acuminate and 2 to 3
mm in length. Kernels are hard, red, midlong, and ovate with a narrow
to midwide, middeep crease. Kernel cheeks are rounded and the brush
is large and long.
Arbon has been resistant to all races of common smut [caused by
Tilletia caries (D.C.) Tul. and T. foetida (Wall.) Liro] to which it
was tested. It has been resistant to dwarf bunt (caused by Tilletia
controversa Kuhn) under field conditions. However, in one test at
Logan, Utah, where it was inoculated with a composite of dwarf bunt
races, it had up to 50% infected heads. It is moderately susceptible
to the races of stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis West.)
prevalent in southern Idaho.
The average yield of Arbon in 5 years of testing at Tetonia in
eastern Idaho has exceeded that of Jeff and 'Hansel' by 11 and 14%,
respectively. Jeff and Arbon have had similar yields at the two test
locations in southern Idaho. Grain test weights and protein contents
of Jeff and Hansel have been slightly higher than those of Arbon.
Arbon has satisfactory milling and baking characteristics.
Breeder seed of Arbon will be maintained at the University of
Idaho, Tetonia Research and Extension Center, P.O. Box 743, Rexburg,
ID 83440.

Registration of Arkan Wheat (Reg. No. 676).
T. J. Martin, W. W. Bockus, L. E. Browder, K. F. Finney, J. H.
Hatchett, and D. L. Wetzel
'ARKAN' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. No.
676), PI 475771, KS79H69, was developed cooperatively by the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station and USDA-ARS. Its pedigree is
'Sage'/'Arthur'. The cross was made at the Ft. Hay Branch Experiment
Station during the winter of 1979-71 by Dr. R. W. Livers. Arkan is an
increase of an F5 plant selection made in 1976. It was distributed to
Kansas growers in 1982.
Arkan is awned, short strawed, and early maturing ('Triumph'
maturity). Spikes are oblong, middense, and erect. Glumes are white,
midlong, and narrow. Shoulders are narrow and oblique. Beaks are
narrow, acuminate, and 1 to 2 mm long. Awns are white and 3 to 8 cm
long. The kernel is red, hard, mid-long, and ovate; the germ is
midsized; the crease is midwide and middeep; the cheeks are angular;
and the brush is mid-sized and midlong. Arkan leaves are distinctly
pubescent on adaxial surfaces. Hairs are rather sparse and short, up
to 0.5 mm long.
In the 1981 and 1982 Southern Regional performance tests, Arkan's
height averaged 76 cm compared to 92 cm for its standard height
parent, Sage. In Kansas intrastate tests, it has averaged 5 cm
shorter than "newton' (the most widely grown semidwarf in Kansas).
Although Arkan is a semidwarf wheat, its coleoptile length is equal to
most standard height wheats. Arkan is slightly less winterhardy than
'Scout' but superior to Newton. it has a tendency to shatter when
grown in western Kansas.
Arkan has been tested in the 1981 and 1982 Southern Regional
performance tests and in the Kansas Intrastate performance tests in
1980, 1981, and 1982. Arkan's primary areas of adaptation are in the
continuously cropped regions of southeast and south central Kansas.
Within the areas of adaptation, its grain yield and test weight have
been qual to those of Newton. Outside the area of adaptation, its
yield has been less than that of Newton. Based on composite grain
samples from the regional and state performance tests, Arkan has good
overall hard-wheat milling and bread-making properties. It has a
somewhat longer than medium mixing time and a very good loaf volume
potential. Grain and four protein contents of Arkan have averaged one
percentage point more than those of Newton.
Arkan is resistant to: soilborne wheat mosaic virus; leaf rust,
caused by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici Eriks (Lr24
plus at least one additional unidentified Lr gene); stem rust, caused
by P. graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks and E. Henn (Sr6, Sr24, and
SrTt-1); powdery mildew, caused by Erysiphe graminis f. sp tritici Em.
Marchal; and Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor Say (H3). It is
moderately resistant to Cephalosporium stripe, caused by
Cephalosporium gramineum Nisikado and Ikata. Arkan is very
susceptible to wheat streak mosaic virus.
Variety protection has been applied for under the Plant Variety
Protection Act, Public Law 91-577. Breeder seed of Arkan is
maintained at the Ft. Hays Branch Exp. Stn., Hays, KS 67601.

REGISTRATION OF ASHKOF WHEAT (Reg. No. 235)
J. A. Clark
ASHKOF (Wisc. 11-825; C. I. No. 6689) was developed at the
Ashland Branch Station of the Department of Agronomy, University of
Wisconsin. It is a pure-line selection from the Malakof variety made
by E. J. Delwiche in 1911. The Ashkof variety is similar to the
Hungarian type of hard red winter wheat, except that the glumes are
grown. It more closely resembles the Pesterboden variety than Turkey.
The suggested place in the present classification is after Yaroslav
(Reg. No. 174). The superior characters of Ashkof wheat are winter
hardiness and high yield. It has been grown for 14 years at the
Ashland Branch Station and other stations in Wisconsin, and has been
included in the uniform winter hardiness nurseries at numerous
experiment stations in the United States and Canada since 1922. The
annual and average yields of Ashkof in comparison with Wisconsin
Pedigree No. 2 at the Ashland station for the five-year period 1920 to
1924, inclusive, are as follows:

Registration of Aztec Wheat (Reg. No. 405).
E. G. Heyne
AZTEC, CI 13016, is a hard red winter wheat adapted to the high
plains wheatlands of eastern New Mexico. It was distributed to New
Mexico farmers in the fall of 1958. It is a produce of the hard red
winter wheat cooperative project. The cross and final selection was
made in Nebraska. Through distribution of breeding stocks coordinated
by the crops Research Division, ARS, USDA, Aztec was found to be
adapted in New Mexico where it was increased and named. Application
for registration was made by R. W. Livers.
Aztec is a selection from the cross Red Chief X Cheyenne made in
Nebraska in 1942 where the final selection also was made in 1948
(Nebraska selection NP 482809). It was first tested in New Mexico in
1952 and was in regional trials in 1957, 1958, and 1959. Data
obtained on Aztec and several other varieties at Clovis, New Mexico,
are given in Table 4. The superior characteristics of Aztec are high
yield and test weight in the semi-arid plains of eastern New Mexico
and its long dough mixing time. Aztec resists stripe rust but is
susceptible to leaf and stem rust, bunt, and loose smut.
Aztec is an awned variety similar to Blackhull in its yield, test
weight, height, maturity and black coloration of the glumes under most
conditions. The kernels are a Turkey type and medium in size. Aztec
is more winterhardy than Blackhull, shatters less and has stronger
straw. It is superior to Blackhull in bread making quality. Its long
dough mixing time and other gluten properties are similar to
Cheyenne's. The maintenance of good gluten quality when grown under
dry conditions, low humidity and high temperatures makes Aztec a
valuable variety for eastern New Mexico.

Registration of Baca Wheat (Reg. No. 528).
J. R. Welsh, G. Ellis, R. Normann, G. Hinze, H. Mann, and H. D. Moore
'BACA', a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.)
CI 15891, was named and released by Colorado State University in 1973.
The variety originated as a single head selection from the variety
'Scout' in 1964. Prior to its release Baca was identified as CO64043.
It has been in statewide yield test since 1969 and was first entered
in the Hard Red Winter Southern Regional Performance Nursery in 1972.
In 1970-72 Colorado dryland nurseries Baca outyielded both Scout and
'Centurk' by 5%.
Baca is midtall, awned, with plant maturity equal to Scout. The
spike is fusiform, lax, and inclined. Glumes are white, long, and
midwide; shoulders midwide, oblique; beaks acuminate, 3 mm long. Awns
are white and 6-8 cm long. Kernels are red, hard, midlong; germ
midsized, long; crease midwide, shallow; cheeks rounded; brush
midsized, short.
Baca has good stem rust resistance but is susceptible to
prevalent races of leaf rust. It is susceptible to dwarf smut. Baca
has very good milling and baking properties.
Baca has been recommended for all dryland areas of Colorado with
the exception of the northwest, where dwarf smut is a problem
Foundation seed was released to growers in the fall of 1972.
Colorado State Experiment Station will be responsible for maintenance
of breeder seed.

REGISTRATION OF BATUM WHEAT (Reg. No. CV-763)
Edwin Donaldson* and M. Nagamitsu
'BATUM' (Reg. no. CV-763, PI 495013) is a hard red winter wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the College of
Agriculture, Washington State University, and the USDA-ARS. It was
jointly released to growers by USDA-ARS and the WAshington and Oregon
Agricultural Experiment Stations in 1985.
Batum was selected in the F5 generation from the cross
CI113438/'Redmond'/2/CI136794/5/PI178383/CI1343/2/CI13441/3/'Itana'/4/
Bezostaja-1'/2/CI13438/'Burt'. The population from the cross was
maintained as a bulk for 4 yr (F2-F5) with natural selection for local
climatic conditions of low rainfall. Subsequent to original
selection, the cultivar was maintained without further selection or
purification.
Batum is winter habit, midseason to late, and semidwarf (Rht1).
It has a strong white stem with an awned, inclined spike oblong to
fusiform, middense to lax. The glumes are glabrous, white, midlong
and midwide. The shoulders are narrow, oblique to rounded; beaks are
midwide, acuminate, and 1 to 3 mm long; awns are white, 2 to 7 cm
long. The kernels of Batum are red, midlong, hard, ovate to
elliptical in shape with a small germ, and midwide and middeep crease.
The cheeks are rounded with a midsize, midlong brush. When grown
under irrigation, kernels may be shorter, with a more open crease and
less rounded cheeks with a midsize to small brush.
Batum was tested as WA006816 in Washington trials during 1979 to
1985, and in the Western Regional Hard Red Winter Wheat Nursery during
1981 to 1985. During this time, in 22 location-years in the wheat-
summer fallow area having <28 cm of average rainfall, Batum outyielded
'Hatton' by 10% and 'Wanser' by 27%. In higher-production locations,
Batum has outyielded Hatton by 2l% in 17 location-years and Wanser by
37% in 20 location-years.
Winterhardiness of Batum is less than Hatton or Wanser. Being a
semidwarf with a relatively short coleoptile, Batum emerges similar to
the soft white winter wheat semidwarf 'Nugaines'. The ability to
emerge is weaker under stress conditions than for the taller hard red
winter wheat cultivars. Batum shows effective mature plant resistance
to the local races of stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis
Westend. and common bunt fungus caused by Tilletia caries (DC.) Tul. &
C. Tul. It has some tolerance to mildew caused by Erysiphe graminis
(DC.) f. sp tritici Em. Marchal and flag smut caused by Urocystis
agropyri (G. Preuss) J. Schröt. Batum is susceptible to dwarf bunt
caused by Tilletia controversa Kühn in Rabenh., snowmold caused by
Typhula spp., stem rust caused by Puccinia graminis Pers.: Pers.,
strawbreaker foot rot caused by Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides
(Fron) Deighton, dryland foot rot caused by Fusarium culmorum (Wm. G.
Sm.) Sacc., and fungus stripe caused by Cephalosporium gramineus Nis.
& Ika.
In tests by the USDA-ARS Western Wheat Quality Laboratory at
Pullman, WA, Batum is slightly higher than Hatton or Wanser for flour
yield and loaf volume. Its optimal bread mix time is shorter than for
Hatton or Wanser.
Breeder and foundation seed of Batum will be maintained by the
Washington State Crop Improvement Association under the supervision of
the Agronomy and Soils Department, Washington State University,
Pullman, WA 99164.
Five white seeds per pound are allowed in foundation, registered,
and certified classes of seed.

Registration of Bennett Wheat (Reg. No. 650).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, and D. V.
McVey
'BENNETT' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.) CI 17723, is a
hard red winter wheat originating as a F2-derived line from the cross
'Scout'/3/'Quivira'/'Tenmarq'/2/'Marquillo'/'Oro'/4/'Homestead' made
in 1968 at the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. Developed cooperatively by
the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. and AR-SEA-USDA, it was tested in the
1974 to 1978 Nebraska Yield Trials and the 1976 to 1978 Southern and
Northern Regional Performance Nurseries as NE73644.
Bennett is as early or slightly earlier in maturity than 'Scout
66.' When compared to Scout 66, Bennett is about 10 cm shorter in
height, more winterhardy, more productive in grain yield, and has
improved straw strength. The spike of Bennett is awned, oblong to
tapering, mid-dense, usually erect at maturity, and somewhat shorter
than that of Scout 66. Awns are white, 5 to 7 cm long. Glumes are
white, glabrous, medium long, medium wide but wider than those of
Scout 66; shoulders are square to rounded. Beaks are moderately short
and acuminate. Kernels are red, hard, elliptical, not quite as long
as those of Scout 66 but slightly wider and approach those of Scout 66
in kernel weight and volume weight. The kernels have a mid-size germ,
shallow crease, rounded cheeks, short brush, and are not collared.
Bennett grain has excellent milling properties. Flour of Bennett
is superior to Scout 66 in break baking properties of dough mixing
time (medium, mixing tolerance, and loaf volume potential.
During its testing period, Bennett had excellent field resistance
to stem rust (incited by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks,
and E. Henn.). Based on seedling tests, Bennett's genotype for stem
rust resistance would include SR5, SR6, and SR17 as well as additional
undesignated genes. The reaction of Bennett to soil-borne mosaic
virus has been described as moderately resistant to moderately
susceptible but its yielding ability in the presence of the disease
has been very good. Bennett is susceptible to leaf rust (incited by
Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici Eriks.) but has shown
moderately low infestations to powdery mildew (incited by Erysiphe
graminis D.C. f. sp. tritici E. Marchal). Reaction to the Great
Plains biotype of Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)] has been
variable, and Bennett is considered susceptible to Hessian fly attack.
Bennett was named and released jointly by the Nebraska Agric.
Exp. Stn. and AR-SEA-USDA in 1978. Bennett is protected (Certificate
7900079) under the Plant Variety Protection act, Public Law 91-577, by
the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. and the USDA and may be sold only as a
class of certified seed. Seed classes recognized are breeder,
foundation, registered, and certified. Breeder seed will be
maintained by the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn., Lincoln, NE 68583.

REGISTRATION OF BISON WHEAT (Reg. No. 371)
E. G. Heyne
BISON, CI 12518, is a hard red winter wheat developed from a
cross between Chiefkan and Oro-Tenmarq, the latter a sister of
Comanche, at the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station in cooperation
with the Cereal Crops Division, ARS, USDA. The cross was made and the
first generation grown at Manhattan, Kansas. The later generations
were grown at Hays where A. F. Swanson made the final selection (HC46-
41) in 1943 from the F5 generation. Bison is closely related to
Kiowa. Bison was distributed to Kansas farmers in the fall of 1956.
E. G. Heyne made the application for registration.
The superior characteristics of Bison are high yield, good test
weight, resistance to bunt, tolerance to wheat streak mosaic, stiff
straw and good milling and baking properties. It is very similar to
Kiowa except it has a longer mixing time and more uniform appearance
in the field and probably a lower test weight. Yield and test weight
data are given in table 6. Bison is mid-tall and resists lodging. It
is midseason in maturity. Bison is susceptible to loose smut, leaf
rust, stem rust, soil borne mosaic and hessian fly. Disease and
hessian fly reactions of Bison and several other hard winter wheats
are given in table 7. Bison is resistant to the prevalent races of
bunt in Kansas. An average of 8 years of artificial inoculation with
bunt spores gave the following results: Bison had 2% infested heads;
Comanche, 2%; Pawnee 17%; and Ponca, 69%. Data from loose smut
inoculations for four years was: Bison, 63% infested heads; Comanche,
47%; Pawnee 2%; and Ponca 11%. The main reason for distributing Bison
in Kansas was that its flour had a longer mixing time than Kiowa. It
also has other desirable milling and baking properties required of
good quality bread-wheat.

The straw of Bison is yellow. The spikes are awned, fusiform in
shape, and mid-dense. The awns are long and generally gray but vary
from nearly white to dark gray. The glumes are smooth and white,
covered with black stripes. The amount of black coloration varies
considerably in Kansas and in some cases, the glumes may be entirely
black. The usual coloration is white glumes with stripes of light
black color. The outer glumes are mid-wide at the middle of the head,
and have square shoulders with beaks about 4 mm. long. The grain is
fairly long and smooth, bleaches and shrivels less frequently than
Comanche grain.

Registration of Bridger Wheat (Reg. No. 498).
Wade G. Dewey
'BRIDGER' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.), Ut. 646001, CI
14580, is a hard red winter wheat developed by the Utah Agricultural
Experiment Station in cooperation with the Plant Science Research
Division, Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of
agriculture. Bridger originated as a single F5 selection from the
cross 'Delmar'/'Columbia'. The cross was made in 1959 and the final
selection was made in 1964. Bridger was tested at dryland locations
in Utah from 1966-1969 and in the Western Regional Nursery during
1968-1969, prior to its release in 1969.
Bridger has at least one major advantage over each of the dryland
winter wheat cultivars presently grown in Utah. It threshes better
than Delmar; it has better breadmaking quality than 'Cache;' and it
has better dwarf smut resistance than 'Itana,' 'Tendoy,' 'Wanser,' and
'McCall.' It has medium-to-strong dough handling properties and good
baking characteristics. It has moderate resistance to most races of
dwarf and common bunt and is susceptible to stripe rust.
Bridger is a bronze-chaffed, bearded winter wheat, medium in
height and maturity. It has a distinctive dark green color during its
early vegetative growth. It has relatively plump kernels with good
test weight.
Bridger is being recommended for those dryland areas of northern
and central Utah where Cache presently predominates.
Breeder seed of Bridger will be maintained by the Utah
Agricultural Experiment Station.

Registration of Bronze Wheat (Reg. No. 537).
Darrell G. Wells, J. J. Bonnemann, Wayne S. Garner, and George
Buchenau
'BRONZE,' CI 14013, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. em Thell) developed by the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment
Station from the second cycle of a program of recurrent selection for
winterhardiness and earliness.
Interpollinations were made between two or three of the hardiest
F3 lines selected from two crosses, C622, 'Hume'/3/ (NE61943)' Mida'/
Ky 117A/2/ 2*'Hope'/ 2*Tr, and C6231, Hume/ 'Gage'. Lines from the
same cross were not interpollinated.
Bronze is 1 day earlier in heading than Hume and 3 days earlier
than 'Winoka.' Bronze is of medium height with good straw strength.
It is moderately resistant to leaf rust but will show substantial leaf
rust development late in the season. Bronze has been free from stem
rust in the field and is known to resist races 32 and 151. The leaf
necrosis associated with the Hope reaction to rust is minor on Bronze.
Bronze may be as susceptible to wheat streak mosaic as Hume. In
a single field test, it was moderately resistant to yellow leaf spot
(Pyrenophora trichostoma) as were 'Hume' and 'Lancer,' but 'Centurk'
was susceptible.
Bronze is a result of an effort to combine earliness, hardiness,
and other desirable qualities in a winter wheat for use where winter
hardiness is often a problem. Bronze is a little less hardy than Hume
and Winoka but consistently hardier than 'Scout 66,' Lancer,
'Scoutland,' and Centurk.
Bronze average 7% more grain yield than Hume over 17 tests during
1979-1972, 2636 kg/ha (39.2 bu/acre) compared with 2462 kg/ha (36.6
bu/acre). Bronze average 6% less grain per acre than less hardy
Lancer, which yielded 2805 kg/ha (41.7 bu/acre). Bronze's test weight
was slightly less than that of Hume, 77.2 kg/hl (60.3 lbs/bu) as
compared with 77.7 kg/hl (60.7 lbs/bu). Lancer's test weight was 78.6
kg/hl (61.4 lbs/bu).
Bronze is resistant to shattering, having shown only a trace in
our tests.
Bronze has a milling value between 'Omaha' and Lancer and is
superior to Lancer and Scout 66 in baking characteristics.
Spikes of Bronze are inclined to nodding, middense, awned, and
fusiform. Glumes are glabrous, brown, midlong, narrow to midwide,
with narrow to midwide oblique shoulders. There is a very small
proportion of white chaffed rogues in Bronze. Beaks are acuminate and
moderately long. Kernels are red, hard, ovate, midlong; crease
midwide and middeep; cheeks rounded to angular; brush midsized,
midlong.
Breeder seed will be maintained by the South Dakota Agricultural
Experiment Station.

Registration of Brule Wheat (Reg. No. 679).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, D. V.
McVey, and J. H. Hatchett
'BRULE' wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. no. 679), PI 466739,
is a hard red winter wheat originating as an F2-derived line from the
three-way cross of NE68723/2/NE68719/'Gage'Selection made in 1970 at
the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. NE68723 is 'Ponca'/3*'Cheyenne'/2/
'Selkirk'/2* Cheyenne. NE68719 is a semidwarf line selected from the
cross 'Seu Seun 27'/CI12500/2/'Pawnee'/Cheyenne/3/(Cheyenne/Ponca/2/
'Turkey'/Cheyenne). CI12500 is 'Nebraska 60'/2/'Mediterranean'/
'Hope'. Brule was developed cooperatively by the Nebraska
Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS. It was tested as
NE75414 in the 1980 and 1981 Nebraska Outstate Yield Trials in the
1978 and 1979 Souther, and in the 1980 and 1981 Northern Regional
Performance Nurseries.
Brule is midseason in maturity, averaging 1 to 2 days later in
flowering than 'Scout 66' in state and regional tests. Brule has
averaged 6 to 8 cm shorter in height than Scout 66, but it has the
shorter-length coleoptile associated with a reduced height gene.
Compared to scout 66, Brule is more winterhardy, more productive in
grain yield, and has significantly greater lodging resistance. The
spike of Brule is awned oblong to tapering, mid-dense, somewhat
shorter than that of Scout 66 and usually carried erect at maturity.
Awns are white and 7 to 9 cm long. Glumes are white, glabrous,
midlong and midwide, slightly shorter and slightly wider than those of
Scout 66; shoulders are square but narrow to wanting. Beaks are
acuminate and moderately short but slightly longer than those of Scout
66. Kernels of Brule are red, semihard to hard, elliptical to ovate,
and similar to those of Scout 66 in length and width. Test weight of
Brule is somewhat lower than that of Scout 66 but kernel weight is
similar. The kernels of Brule have a midsized germ, shallow crease,
rounded cheeks, short brush, and are not collared.
Brule grain has good hard wheat milling properties. Flour of
Brule is superior to Scout 66 in break baking properties, dough mixing
time (strong), mixing tolerance, and loaf volume potential.
During testing, Brule has shown good field resistance to stem
rust (incited by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E.
Henn). Based on seedling tests, Brule's genotype for stem rust
resistance would include SR5, SR17, heterogeneity for SR6
(approximately 75% of population has SR6), and undesignated genes.
Brule has shown a delayed susceptibility to leaf rust (incited by
Puccinia recondita Rob. ex. Desm. f. sp. tritici Eriks.) similar to
its parent Gage. It has shown moderately low infection to powdery
mildew (incited by Erysiphe graminis D.C. f. sp. tritici E. Marchal).
The reaction of Brule to soilborne mosaic virus has been described as
moderately resistant to moderately susceptible. It has shown
considerable tolerance to wheat streak mosaic virus under natural
field infection and when manually inoculated in greenhouse tests.
Brule has the 'Marquillo'-'Kawvale' type of resistance to the Great
Plains biotype of Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)].
Brule was named and released jointly by the Nebraska Agric. Exp.
stn. and the USDA-ARS in 1981. Seed classes recognized are breeder,
foundation, registered, and certified. Breeder seed will be
maintained by the Nebraska AGric. Exp. Stn., Lincoln, NE 68583.

Registration of Buckskin Wheat (Reg. No. 572).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, D. V.
McVey, and H. W. Somsen
'BUCKSKIN' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.), CI 17263, is a
hard red winter wheat selected in the F3 generation from the cross
'scout'/3/'Quivira'/'Tenmarq'/2/'Marquillo'/'Oro' made in 1962 at the
Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. It was developed cooperatively by the
Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. and the ARS-USDA, and tested in the Southern
Regional Performance Nursery as Nebraska Selection 68435.
Buckskin is a moderately early winter wheat. It is slightly
taller than 'Scout 66' but has stronger straw. The spike is white,
awned, tapering, long, middense, and nodding at maturity. Glumes are
white, glabrous, short, and narrow, with shoulders narrow to square to
oblique. Beaks are long and acuminate. Awn length is 5 to 9 cm, and
awn color may range from white to brown or black, depending on
environmental conditions. The kernels are red, medium hard, ovate and
short to midlong; germ midsized; crease shallow; cheeks rounded; brush
medium and not collared.
Buckskin has a high yield potential over a range of
environments. It is less winterhady than Scout 66. It is susceptible
to leaf rust, [Puccimia rubigo-vera (De.) Wint. f. sp. triticum
(Ericks) Carl.] and wheat streak mosaic virus (Marmor virgatum
McKvar, typicum McK.), but has moderate resistance to soil-borne
mosaic virus (M. Tritici Holmes var. typicum McK.), stem rust (P.
graminis pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks, & E. Henn.), and Hessian fly
[Mayetiola destructor (Say)]. Buckskin has excellent milling and
baking characteristics: moderately long mixing time, very good mixing
tolerance, and good loaf volume.
Buckskin was named and released jointly in 1973 by the Agric.
Exp. Stns. of Nebraska and Kansas, and ARS-USDA. Buckskin is
protected (Certificate 7400108) under the Plant Variety Protection
Act, Public Law 91-577, by the Nebraska Agric. Exp. stn., and may be
sold only as a class of certified seed. Seed classes recognized are
breeder, foundation registration, and certified. Breeder seed will be
maintained by Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn.

Registration of Cache Wheat (Reg. No. 470).
Wade G. Dewey
'CACHE' (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.), CI 11599, originated
from the cross 'Ridit' X 'Utah Kanred' made by D. C. Tingey at the
Utah Agricultural Experiment Station, Logan, Utah, in 1927. A single
smut-resistant F4 plant was selected in 1931 and was increased and
tested in subsequent years as '54a-40'. This breeding lines was
released to growers on a trial basis in 1937 but was not officially
named until 1944.
Cache was bred specifically for dwarf bunt resistance and
contributed significantly to the decline of the bunt problem in the
Intermountain area, particularly in the late 1930's and the 1940's.
It possesses only intermediate resistance to several of the newer bunt
races, however. It is moderately resistant to stripe rust.
Cache is a hard red winter wheat with relatively weak mixing
properties. It is generally rated inferior to newer varieties such as
Itana, Delmar, and Tendoy in baking quality. It remains popular with
the farmers, however, because of its combination of smut resistance,
resistance to shattering and its ability to yield well over a wide
range of conditions.
Morphological characteristics of Cache have been described as
follows: plant winter habit, midseason, midtall, stem white,
midstrong, spike awnleted, fusiform, lax, erect; glumes glabrous,
white, midlong, midwide; shoulders narrow, rounded; breaks midwide,
acute 0.5 mm. long; awnlets several, 5 to 20 mm. long; kernels red,
midlong, hard, ovate; germ small; crease narrow, shallow; cheeks
rounded; brush small, short.
Pure seed is maintained by the Utah Agricultural Experiment
Station and the Utah Crop Improvement Association.

Registration of Caddo Wheat (Reg. No. 436).
I. M. Atkins, K. B. Porter, and O. G. Merkle
'CADDO', Triticum aestivum L., CI 13536, is a hard red winter
wheat selected from the cross Marquillo-Oro, Ks 787-1 X Wichita. The
cross was made in 1942 at the Denton, Texas, Substation and the final
reselection from promising lines was made in 1953. Approximately
2,000 bushels of foundation seed was released to Texas certified seed
growers in the fall of 1963.
Caddo has a winter habit of growth, is early to midseason, of
about the maturity of the parent Wichita and 2 days earlier than
Crockett. Plants are of moderate height and have strong straw with
standing ability superior to that of Crockett or Wichita. Spikes are
awned, chaff is white and grain is of medium size. Caddo is resistant
to many races of leaf rust and to races 17, 29, and 32 of stem rust.
Caddo has high test weight, exceeding that of all other varieties in
Texas performance trials 1958-62.
The bread quality characteristics of Caddo have been excellent
under most conditions and in tests over a period of 6 years the
quality approached that of Comanche in most respects. Quality of
Caddo has been satisfactory although its gluten is perhaps not as
strong as that of Comanche but is superior to that of Wichita.
Milling tests have been outstanding and flour yield superior in large
scale milling tests.
Caddo has shown wide adaptation and in 1961 ranked first in yield
in the Southern Regional Performance Trials. It has been superior to
all varieties except Tascosa in Texas trials and is recommended for
all the commercial wheat growing areas in Texas. Caddo is less
winter-hardy than Comanche and Bison and this deficiency may limit the
variety largely to Texas growing areas. Performance data are given in
Table 1.

Registration of Capitan Wheat (Reg. No. 619).
R. E. Finkner, J. W. Schmidt, and V. A. Johnson
'CAPITAN' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell), CI 17591, is a
hard red winter wheat selected in the F4 generation from the cross,
'Pawnee'/'Cheyenne'/3/Pawnee/'Kenya 58'/2/Cheyenne, made in 1959 at
the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. It was developed cooperatively by the
Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. and AR-SEA-USDA and tested in the Southern
and Northern Regional Performance Nurseries as Nebraska Selection
66403. It was tested 9 years at Plains Branch Station at Clovis, N.
M., under this same number.
Capitan is a midseason winter wheat similar to 'Centurk' in
maturity. It is similar to 'Scout' in winterhardiness, plant height,
and straw strength. The spike is white, awned, tapering, erect, and
mid-dense. Glumes are glabrous, white, midlong, and midwide with
shoulders oblique to wanting. Beaks are midshort and acuminate. Awn
length is 6 to 11 cm. The kernels of Capitan are red, hard, midlong,
elliptical to ovate; medium deep crease; cheeks rounded; brush
midsized.
Capitan has a high yield potential under dryland, limited
irrigation and irrigated conditions. Under full irrigation and heavy
fertilization, Capitan tends to lodge. It was selected for resistance
to stem rust (caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E.
Henn.) during its early development and testing period. Capitan has
good milling and baking characteristics; wheat protein of 12.4% and
flour protein of 11.4% (compared to Scout of 12.9 And 11.8,
respectively); medium dough-mixing tolerance of 4.11 min (Scout = 3.0
min); and loaf volume, corrected to 12.5% moisture of 974 cc (Scout =
941 cc).
Capitan was named and released in 1978 by the New Mexico Agri.
Exp. Stn. with approval from the Director of the Nebraska Agric. Exp.
Stn. Seed classes of Capitan designated by the New Mexico Agric. Exp.
Stn. are Breeder, Foundation, Registered, and Certified. Breeder seed
will be maintained by the Plains Branch Station, New Mexico State
Univ. New Mexico State Univ. does not plan to apply for U.S. Plant

Registration of Caprock Wheat (Reg. No. 478).
I. M. Atkins, K. B. Porter, and K. A. Lahr
'CAPROCK' wheat, Triticum aestivum L., Texas Selection No. 391-
56-D1-29, CI 14516, is a hard red winter variety developed from the
cross 'Sinvalocho'/ 'Wichita'/2/ 'Hope'/ 'Cheyenne'/3/ Wichita/4/ 'Seu
Seun 27.' The female parent is a sister strain of 'Crockett' and the
male parent is a short wheat introduced from Japan. Caprock is a
sister strain of 'Sturdy' wheat released in Texas in 1967. Foundation
seed of Caprock will be released to Texas certified seed producers in
1969. Caprock is being released as a companion variety to Sturdy
because of its better performance under irrigation and its great
uniformity.
Caprock has short straw, a winter habit of growth and broad,
moderately upright leaves. The spikes have awns and white chaff with
black stripes (under some conditions). The grain is red, hard and of
medium size. The variety is resistant to many races of leaf rust but
is susceptible to prevalent races of stem rust and to mildew. In
extensive milling and baking trials at College Station, Texas, and
Manhattan, Kansas, Caprock has been equal or superior in gluten
strength and overall quality to Sturdy. Both are strong gluten wheats
suitable for commercial bakery flour production.
Caprock matures about 1 day later than 'Sturdy' and both range
from 1 to 4 days later than 'Triumph,' under most conditions.
Performance of Caprock has been outstanding under irrigation on the
High Plains of northwest Texas where it has averaged 8 bushels per
acre more than Sturdy. At lower elevations in the Rolling Plains and
North Central Texas, the two varieties have yielded about the same;
but in Central Texas, Sturdy has yielded higher than Caprock.
Therefore both varieties will be maintained for separate growing
areas. Throughout the Rolling Plains and North Central Texas, the
yield of Caprock and Sturdy have been equal to the best adapted
commercial varieties. In addition they provide considerable
protection from lodging of the crop under conditions of high
production levels. Both varieties have less cold tolerance than
Triumph, 'Scout,' and Wichita, so that growers in states to the north
should consult their nearest experiment station concerning adaptation
of these varieties. Test weight of Caprock has averaged from 1/2 to 1
pound higher than Sturdy.
Breeder and foundation seed are maintained by the Texas
Agricultural Experiment Station.

Registration of Cardon Wheat (Reg. No. 565).
Wade G. Dewey
'CARDON,' CI 17295, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. em Thell.) developed by the Utah Agric. Exp. Stn. It originated
from the same cross, 'Delmar'/PI 178383/2/'Columbia' as did 'Hansel.'
The single plant selection that resulted in Cardon was made in 1967
from a space-planted F3 bulk population. Prior to its naming and
release in 1974, it was designated as UT 755090. Its testing included
5 years at various dryland locations in Utah and 3 years in the
Western Regional Hard Red Winter Wheat Nursery.
Cardon possesses much better dwarf bunt (Tilletia controversa
Kuhn) resistance than do the moderately resistant cultivars 'Cache,'
'Delmar,' and 'Bridger.' However, it is not as resistant to bunt as
is Hansel. Cardon resists the races of stripe rust (Puccinia
striiformis West.) common in Utah and has exhibited an above average
tolerance to snowmold (Typhula and Fusarium spp.)
Cardon has white straw of medium height and strength. It
averages 10 cm shorter than Hansel. The spike is fusiform and awned,
the awns and glumes are bronze. The kernels are hard, red, and
midlong. Test weight is average. It is medium in maturity and
tillers more profusely than the cultivars Delmar and Cache.
Cardon has performed well in milling and baking tests. It has
good loaf volume and strong mixing properties. In yield trials in
northern utah Cardon has consistently ranked in the upper one-third of
the entries.
Breeder and Foundation seed will be maintained by the Utah Agric,
Exp. Stn., Logan, UT 84322.

J.H. Hatchett
'CENTURA' wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. no. 694), PI 476974,
is a hard red winter wheat originating from an F3-derived line from
the 1971 cross 'Warrior'*5 / 'Agent' /2/ NE68457 /3/ 'Centurk 78'.
Warrior*5 / Agent is CO68F6635. NE68457 is 'Ponca' / 2*'Cheyenne' /3/
(Illinois No. 1 /2/ 'Chinese'*2 /Triticum timopheevii) / (Cheyenne /
'Tenmarq' / 'Mediterranean' / 'Hope' /2/ Sando 60. Centura was tested
as NE77682 in Nebraska Outstate Trials from 1981 through 1983, in the
Southern Regional Performance Nursery, 1981-1983, and in the 1983
Northern Regional Performance Nursery.
Centura is a moderately early-maturing cultivar averaging about
one day later in flowering than 'Scout 66', and has averaged about 7
cm shorter in plant height. It is similar to Centurk 78 in
winterhardiness, lodges less, and is more productive in grain yield.
Spikes of Centura are awned, white, middense, and tapering to
clavate or squareheaded. The degree and incidence of the tendency
toward squareheadedness varies with environment. The spike, which is
usually erect at maturity, is shorter, but wider than that of Scott
66. Awns are white and similar in length to those of Scout 66. Beaks
are acuminate and short, but slightly longer than those of Scout 66.
Glumes are glabrous, long, and medium in width. Shoulders are narrow
and square to rounded. Kernels are red, hard, and elliptical with a
medium-sized germ, and a brush of medium length without a collar.
Cheeks are rounded and the crease is narrow and shallow. Cheeks are
rounded and the crease is narrow and shallow. Kernels are similar to
those of Scout 66 in size and weight. Test weights of Centura and
Scout 66 are similar.
Grain of Centura has satisfactory hard wheat milling properties.
Flour of Centura is similar to that of Centurk 78 in its bread-baking
characteristics such as dough mixing time (Strong), mixing tolerance
and leaf volume potential.
In field tests, Centura has been moderately resistant to leaf
rust (incited by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici
Eriks.) and stem rust (incited by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp.
tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.). It has been intermediate in field
reaction to powdery mildew (incited by Erysiphe graminis DC. f. sp.
tritici E. Marchal) and to soilborne mosaic and wheat streak mosaic
viruses. It has been intermediate-to-susceptible in reaction to the
Great Plains Hessian fly biotype [Mayetiola destructor (Say)].
Centura was named and released jointly by the Nebraska Agric. Exp.
Stn. and the USDA-ARS in 1983. Protection is being requested under
the Plant Variety Protection Act, Public Law 91-577 with the certified
seed option. Seed classes recognized are breeder, foundation,
registered, and certified. Breeder seed will be maintained by the
Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn., Lincoln, NE 68583.

Registration of Centurk Wheat (Reg. No. 532).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, and A. F. Drier
'CENTURK' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.) CI 15075 is a
hard red winter wheat selected in the F4 generation from the cross
'Kenya 58' / 'Newthatch' /2/ 'Hope' / 2*'Turkey' /4/ 'Cheyenne' /5/
'Parker', made in 1959 at the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment
Station. It was developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agricultural
Experiment Station and the Agricultural Research Service, USDA, and
tested in the Southern and Northern Regional Performance Nurseries as
Nebraska Selection 66425.
Centurk is a moderately early winter wheat. It has medium-short,
medium-strong straw. The spike of Centurk is white, awned, oblong to
fusiform, erect, and middense. Glumes are white, glabrous, midlong,
and midwide, with shoulders midwide, rounded to square, and with
midlong beaks. Awn length is 3 to 8 cm. The kernels of Centurk are
red, hard, midlong, elliptical to ovate; germ midsized to large;
crease straight and shallow; and cheeks rounded.
Centurk is widely adapted and high yielding over a range of
environments. It is similar to Scout 66 in winterhardiness. It has
shown good leaf- and stem-rust field resistance during its development
and testing period. It is known to be susceptible to some races of
leaf and stem rust, based on seedling tests. Centurk is susceptible
to Hessian fly. Its reactions to bunt, loose smut, and wheat streak
mosaic have not been fully determined. Centurk has excellent milling
and baking characteristics. Its dough-mixing time is moderately long,
with good mixing tolerance. It has good loaf volume.
Centurk was named and released in 1971 by the Agricultural
Experiment Stations of Nebraska, Colorado, Illinois, Kansas, New
Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Texas, and the Plant Science
Research Division of the Agricultural Research Service, USDA. Seed
classes of Centurk designated by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment

Registration of centurk 78 Wheat (Reg. NO. 651).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, and D. V.
McVey
'CENTURK 78' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.) CI 17724, is
a hard red winter wheat originating as a five-head selection progeny
composite made in 1967 from NE66425, which was later named 'Centurk.'
Developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. and AR-SEA-
USDA, it was tested in the 1970 to 1977 Nebraska Yield Trials and the
1976 to 1977 Southern and Northern Regional Performance Nurseries as
NE69291.
Centurk 78 has been slightly but consistently more productive in
grain yield than Centurk. Centurk 78 resembles centurk in most
characteristics but differs from centurk in the following traits: 1)
beak length is significantly shorter in Centurk 78; 2) it is more
susceptible to soil-borne mosaic virus; 3) flour from Centurk 78
consistently requires a slightly longer dough mixing time; and 4) in
2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), Centurk 78
does not have one gliadin protein entity present in Centurk.
The Nebraska and New Mexico Agric. Exp. Stns. and AR-SEA-USDA,
jointly named and released Centurk in 1978. Centurk 78 is protected
(Certificate 7900080) under the Plant Variety Protection Act, Public
Law 91-577 by the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. and the USDA and may be
sold only as a class of certified seed. Seed classes recognized are
breeder, foundation, registered, and certified. The Nebraska Agric.
Exp. Stn., Lincoln, NE 68583 will maintain breeder seed.

'CENTURY', (Reg. no. 744), PI 502912, is a hard red winter wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the Oklahoma
Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS at Stillwater, OK.
It was released to growers in 1986. Century is derived from the cross
'Payne'/2/'TAM W-101'/'Amigo'. Payne is a semidwarf hard red winter
whet cultivar that carries the Lr24 gene for leaf rust (incited by
Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici) resistance from a sib
of 'Teewon'. Teewon is an alien translocation germplasm line
involving an Agropyron elongatum chromosome, developed at Stillwater,
OK, by the use of pollen irradiation techniques. TAM W-101 is a well-
adapted, widely grown hard red winter wheat cultivar in the southern
Great Plains. Amigo is a winter wheat germplasm line developed at
Stillwater, OK. It carries resistance to biotype C of the greenbug,
Schizaphis graminum (Rondani). Resistance was derived from 'Insave
F.A.', an Argentine rye (Secale cereale L.), and transferred to wheat
via an induced chromosomal translocation. A greenbug biotype C
resistant F2 plant derived from the cross TAM W-101/Amigo, was crossed
with Payne in 1976. Century traces to a single F4 plant from this
cross.
Century is a strong-strawed semidwarf cultivar. It is medium-
early in maturity, similar to TAM W-101. Its test weight is
comparable to Payne, TAM W-101, and 'Vona'. The spike of Century is
awned, fusiform to oblong and middense; awns are white and 4 to 7 cm
long; glumes are glabrous, white, midlong, and narrow to midwide; the
shoulders are narrow and square to elevated; beaks are narrow,
acuminate, and vary from 2 to 4 mm in length; the kernels are red,
short to midlong, hard, and elliptical; the germ is large; the crease
is narrow and shallow; cheeks are rounded; and the brush is midsized
and midlong.
Century was evaluated in the Southern Regional Performance
Nursery as OK81322 from 1984 to 1986. Century has sufficient
winterhardiness for Oklahoma and is adapted to all wheat-growing areas
in the state. The cultivar has an excellent yield record in Oklahoma.
In state-wide yield trials from 1983 through 1985 (22 environments),
the average grain yield of Century, 'Chisholm', Payne, Vona, 'TAM
105', TAM W-101, 'Newton', and 'Triumph 64' were, respectively, 3914,
3699, 3572, 2565, 3363, 3346, 3329, and 3213 kg ha-1. Century has
satisfactory overall milling and baking properties, with only wheat
and flour ash slightly higher than in other cultivars. The leaf rust
resistance (Lr24) in Century is genetically pure and stable as
indicated by 2 yr of extensive seedling tests using single pustule
isolates of Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici obtained in Oklahoma.
Laboratory tests confirm its resistance to biotype C of the greenbug.
Field observations indicate that Century is resistant to powdery
mildew (incited by Erysiphe graminis DC f. sp. tritici E. Marchal) and
Hessian fly (presumably the Great Plains biotype), Mayetiola
destructor (Say). It is susceptible to soil-borne mosaic virus and
biotype E of the greenbug.
Breeder seed of Century will be maintained by the Oklahoma
Agricultural Experiment Station. Foundation seed will be available
from the Oklahoma Foundation Seed Stocks, Inc., Dep. of Agronomy,
Oklahoma State Univ., Stillwater, OK 74078.

Registration of Chanute Wheat (Reg. No. 479).
J. A. Wilson and Peter Salm
'CHANUTE', a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em.
Thell.), CI 14581, was developed by DeKalb AgResearch, Inc. and
released in 19569. It originated as an F4 head row selection from the
backcross: 4*'Tascosa'/'Norin' derivative. This variety is the result
of a program designed to transfer semi-dwarf genes from Japanese
stocks into well adapted, high quality hard red winter wheats. The
male parent, introduced by DeKalb for breeding purposes, is a
semidwarf, poor quality, nominal yielding winter hardy Norin
derivative that is believe to have 50% hard red winter germplasm.
Chanute is characterized by the following: plant winter habit,
medium early, short to semidwarf; stem white, strong; spiked awned,
oblong to fusiform, middense, erect to inclined; glumes glabrous,
white, midlong, midwide; shoulders wide, square to elevated; beaks
midwide acuminate, 3 to 6 mm long; awns white, 2 to 7 cm long; kernels
red, midlong, hard, ovate; germ midsized; crease midwide, shallow;
cheeks rounded; brush midsized, short.
Chanute is resistant to soil-borne mosaic. It is susceptible to
leaf rust but is slow-rusting. Although susceptible to mildew, it has
a slower build-up of this disease than some other hard red winter
varieties. It is susceptible to stem rust and bunt, but may be
moderately resistant to loose smut since no loose smut infection has
been detected under natural field conditions.
Chanute has extensive tillering potential and prior to heading
has very erect leaves. The straw is stiff, short and resistant to
weathering. The heads are medium in size and highly resistant to
shattering. Head size persists under luxuriant growing conditions
that tend to decrease head size in standard height varieties. Straw
type and quality allow for high yields in Kansas under above average
moisture and fertility.
With its hardiness, soil-borne mosaic resistance and earliness,
Chanute's primary area of adaptation is the southern two-thirds of
eastern Kansas. It is more winter hardy than the recurrent parent
Tascosa.
The grain and flour quality are quite satisfactory in meeting
hard red winter wheat standards. The grain is hard, has high test
weight and produces a high yield of flour with low ash. It has high
water absorption and medium-strong gluten which is suitable as a
blending wheat or in the production of a baker's flour. Loaf volume
and texture are satisfactory.
DeKalb AgResearch, Inc. will be the source of registered seed.
Only registered seed can be used in the production of certified seed.

Registration of Chisholm Wheat (Reg. No. 691).
E. L. Smith, O.G. Merkle, H.T. Nguyen, D.C. Abbott, and G. H. Morgan
'CHISHOLM,' (Reg. No. 691), PI486219, is a hard red winter wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the Oklahoma
Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS. It was released to
growers in 1983. Chisholm was selected from the cross Sturdy
Sib/'Nicoma' which was made at Stillwater in 1971. Sturdy Sib (TX391-
56-DI-32), a semidwarf wheat, is similar to 'Sturdy' in most agronomic
and quality characteristics but is several days earlier in heading
date. 'Seu Seun 27' is the source of Sturdy's semidwarf stature.
Nicoma ('Triumph'/3/'Marquillo'/'Oro'/Oro/'Tenmarq') is a standard
height cultivar released by the Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment
Station in 1971. Nicoma is characterized by high test weight and good
milling and baking properties. Chisholm traces to an individual F3
plant selection made in 1973. Breeder seed of the cultivar was
produced by compositing seed of 179 plant progeny line reselections of
similar maturity and agronomic appearance in the F9.
Chisholm is an early maturing, strong strawed semidwarf cultivar
with high test weight and good resistance to shattering. In comparison
with 'Triumph 64' in Oklahoma trails, it is 15 cm shorter in plant
height, 1 day earlier in maturity, and only 0.6 kg hL-1 lower in test
weight (Triumph 64 is considered the standard for high test weight in
Oklahoma). The spike of Chisholm is awned, fusiform to oblong, and
middense; awns are white and 4 to 7 cm long; glumes are glabrous,
white, midlong, and narrow to midwide; the shoulders are narrow and
square; beaks are narrow, acuminate, and vary from 3 to 6 mm in
length; the kernels are red, midlong, hard, and elliptical to ovate;
the germ is midsized; the crease is narrow and shallow; cheeks are
rounded; and the brush is midsized and middlong.
The cultivar was evaluated in the Southern Regional Performance
Nursery in 1982 and 1983 as OK754615E (composite of early maturing
reselections). Chisholm has sufficient winterhardiness for Oklahoma
and is adapted to all wheat growing areas in the state. The cultivar
has an excellent yield record in Oklahoma. In 4 years of state-wide
tests (24 environments) during 1980-1983, the average grain yields for
Chisholm, 'TAM 105,' 'Vona,' 'TAM W-101,' 'Payne,' 'Newton,' and
Triumph 64 were, respectively, 4365, 4163, 3989, 3962, 3955, 3861, and
3457 kg ha-1. Chisholm has good milling and baking properties. It
has satisfactory grain protein content, satisfactory flour yield,
rather strong dough mixing properties and good loaf volume potential.
Chisholm has moderate field resistance to leaf rust incited by
Puccinia recondita Rob ex Desm. f. sp. tritici. It is susceptible to
soilborne mosaic virus, wheat streak mosaic virus, and powdery mildew
(incited by Erysiphe graminis DC. f. sp. tritici E. Marchall).
Breeder seed of Chisholm will be maintained by the Oklahoma
Agric. Exp. Stn. Foundation seed will be available from the Oklahoma
Foundation Seed Stocks, Inc., Dep. of Agronomy, Oklahoma State Univ.,
Stillwater, OK 74078.

Registration of Cloud Wheat (Reg. No. 547).
E. G. Heyne and L. E. Browder
'CLOUD,' CI 17276, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. em Thell.) selected from the cross 'Scout'*5/'Agent.' It was
developed cooperatively and jointly released by the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station and the ARS, USDA, in 1973. F2 seed
was received from the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station in the
fall of 1966, and the plants were tested for reaction to leaf rust
races 9 and 15 in the greenhouse. Part of the population also was
seeded in the field and subjected to an artificial epidemic of leaf
rust in the spring of 1967. Resistant F2 plants were saved and
increased and the segregating lines discarded in 1968 and 1969. A
heavy natural stem rust infection occurred in 1969 and the most
promising lines were bulked for further tests. Cloud is a composite
of 52 lines. Heterogeneity in Cloud is found in slight variations in
plant height, maturity, kernel size and shape. Cloud was tested in
intrastate tests and the Southern Regional Performance Nursery as
Kansas selection KS7016.
Cloud has many characteristics similar to Scout but matures at
least one day later and is slightly taller. The spike is white,
awned, fusiform, erect to nodding, and middense. The glumes are
white, glabrous, midlong, narrow to midwide with shoulders narrow to
midwide and rounded to square, and beaks varying from 2 to 6 mm in
length. The awns are 4 to 8 cm long. The culm is white and medium to
tall height with medium strength straw. The kernels are red, hard,
and midlong, the germ is midsized, the crease is straight and shallow;
the cheeks are rounded and the brush is midsized.
Cloud has the leaf rust resistance of Agent (E. L. Smith, A. M.
Schlehuber, H. C. Young, Jr. and L. H. Edwards. 1968. Registration
of Agent wheat (Reg. No. 471). Crop Sci. 8:511-512) which derived
from Agropyron elongatum. It has better stem rust resistance than
Scout and resists most races present in Kansas through 1973. It is
tolerant to Hessian fly and susceptible to soil-borne mosaic and bunt.
It has a low infection of loose smut under natural conditions. The
yield has been excellent, often exceeding Scout by 10%. The test
weight is average. Cloud has overall milling and baking properties
similar to Scout and is a satisfactory cultivar for quality
characteristics.
Foundation seed will be maintained by the Kansas Agricultural
Experiment Station, Manhattan, KS 66506.

Registration of Cody Wheat (Reg. No. 740).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. T. Nordquist, P. J. Mattern, A. F.
Dreier, D. V. McVey and J.H . Hatchett
'CODY' wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. no. 740), PI 486212, is
a hard red winter wheat originating as an F3-derived line from the
1971 cross of 'Warrior'*5/'Agent' with 'Centurk 78'. It was
reselected from a population of 1000 lines in the F12 generation for
leaf rust resistance caused by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp.
tritici Eriks. The Warrior*5/Agent (68F6635) parental line was
developed by the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station. Cody was
developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agricultural Research Division
and the USDA-ARS. It was identified as a line in 1977 and tested as
NE77465 in Nebraska yield trials beginning in 1978. In 1981 to 1983
it was evaluated in the Northern Regional Performance Nursery and in
the Southern Regional Performance Nursery in 1986.
Cody is similar to Centurk 78 in plant height and maturity but
more winterhardy and lodges somewhat less. It has exceeded Centurk 78
in yield by 7% over 6 yr of state testing. The spikes of Cody have
moderately long, mid-dense heads, tapering to strip in shape with a
tendency toward clavate under certain environmental conditions. The
awns are white and medium in length. Glumes are white, glabrous, and
slightly shorter than those of Centurk 78. The glumes are rounded to
square. Beak length is moderately long to long. Grain of Cody is
red, hard, elliptical to ovate, and with a medium germ. The brush is
short and not collared. The cheeks are rounded, and the crease narrow
and shallow. Kernels are about 10% heavier in weight than those of
Centurk 78.
The milling and baking qualities of Cody are similar to those of
Centurk 78 but with stronger dough characteristics as measured by the
mixograph. Grain protein content is similar to Centurk 78 at
comparable grain yields.
Cephalosporium stripe (caused by Cephalosporium gramineum Nis.
and Ika.) provided Cody the least infection of all the cultivars at
the North Platte, NE station. This tolerance as the basic reason for
the release of Cody as a cultivar for production in the area around
North Platte. The leaf rust and stem rust (incited by Puccinia
graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.) reaction of Cody is
moderately resistant. Cody has the Lr24 and Sr24 genes of Agent for
leaf and stem rust resistance and has additional genes for stem rust
resistance from Centurk 78. It is susceptible to powdery mildew
(caused by Erysiphe graminis DC. f. sp. tritici E. Marchal), wheat
streak mosaic virus, and Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)].
Cody has an intermediate reaction to soilborne mosaic virus.
Cody was named and released in 1986 by the Nebraska Agricultural
Research Division and the USDA-ARS. It has been submitted for
protection under the U.S. Plant Variety Protection Act, Public Law 91-
577 by the Nebraska Agricultural Research Division and will be sold
only as a class of certified seed. Seed classes designated by the
Nebraska Agricultural Research Division are breeder, registered,

Registration of Collin Wheat (Reg. No. 735).
D. Marshall, J. H. Gardenhire, E. C. Gilmore, M. E. McDaniel, and C.
A. Erickson
'COLLIN' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. no.
735) PI 511849 was developed by the Texas Agricultural Experiment
Station, Texas A&M University in cooperation with USDA-ARS and
released in 1986. Collin, whose experimental designation was
TX71D4876-V5, has the parentage of 'Agent' / 'Tascosa' /2/ 'Sturdy'.
It is named for Collin County, where its superior adaptability to the
Texas Blacklands was demonstrated.
An individual F3 plant was selected at Denton, TX in 1971 and the
resulting line was entered into statewide yield trials as TX71D4876.
In 1975 an F7 selection, TX71D4876-V5, was made at Vernon, TX. It
subsequently exhibited excellent yields and leaf rust (incited by
Puccinia recondita Rob ex Desm. f. sp. tritici) resistance in yield
trials at Dallas, Temple, McGregor, Beeville, and Uvalde, TX. Single
plant progeny rows in the F13 with a resistant reaction to leaf rust
and uniform in plant type, were composited for breeder seed.
Collin was tested for performance in advanced nursery trials in
Texas from 1982 to 1985. Collin was consistently among the top
yielding cultivars, with 'Mit, 'Probrand 812', 'Payne', and Sturdy.
It has been tested for hard red winter wheat milling and baking
qualities since 1982. Quality evaluations have indicated that Collin
has satisfactory quality properties of a hard red winter wheat,
similar to those of 'TAM W-101'.
Collin has the same heading date as Probrand 812 and is 1 d later
in heading than Mit at Dallas, McGregor, and Temple. it is 6 d
earlier than Sturdy and 2 wk earlier than 'TAM 105' at those
locations. In south Texas at Beeville and Uvalde, Collin is 2 d
earlier in heading than Probrand 812, 2 wk earlier than Sturdy and 1 d
later than Mit.
Collin is an awned, semidwarf, brown-chaff wheat. The height of
Collin is the same as Payne, Sturdy, and TAM 105. The plant color of
Collin at boot stage is green. The heads are fusiform and the central
florets frequently set seed. The outer glumes are mid-long and mid-
wide with square shoulders, a sharp keel, and medium beak length.
Kernels are medium sized, taper very little, and have a blocky
appearance. Collin exhibits semi-erect growth habit in the juvenile
stage of growth.
Collin has resistance to leaf rust derived from Agent (Lr24) as
well as adult-plant resistance factors derived from Sturdy. It has
been resistant to races UN2, UN3, UN5, UN6, UN13, UN14, and UN17 of
the leaf rust fungus in field trials in the Blacklands and south
Texas. Collin is moderately resistant to the naturally occurring
races of Erysiphe graminis DC. f. sp. tritici E. Marchal, which causes
powdery mildew.
Breeder seed is maintained by the Foundation Seed Service of the
Texas Agricultural Experiment Station, College Station, TX 77843.

REGISTRATION OF COLOROW WHEAT (Reg. No. 399)
E. G. Heyne
COLOROW, CI 12865, is a hard red winter wheat released by the
Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station in 1960. This variety is the
result of the cooperative hard red winter wheat program in the Great
Plains. T. E. Haus applied for registration.
Colorow is a selection from the cross X40B6, Marquillo-Oro X Oro-
Turkey-Florence, made in Kansas in 1940. The early generations were
grown in Kansas. An F5 selection from this cross was reselected in
Colorado in 1947 for leaf rust and bunt resistance. Part of this seed
was sent to Nebraska for the 1948 crop and was assigned the selection
number NP 48505. It was grown in the uniform hard red winter wheat
bunt nursery from 1951 to 1953 where it had an outstanding record for
resistance to common and dwarf bunt. It has been in performance
trials at Craig, Colorado, since 1952 and its region of adaptation
appears to be the dwarf bunt area of western Colorado. The name
Colorow, is derived from a Ute Indian chief who lived in northwestern
Colorado.
Performance data on Colorow, Cheyenne, and Wasatch are given in table
8. Colorow has exceeded both Cheyenne and Wasatch in yield and had
about the same response to bunt at Craig, Colorado, as Wasatch.

Its superior characteristics are resistance to common and dwarf
bunt, high yield, and good milling and baking properties. It also is
resistant to leaf rust. The plant has winter habit of growth and is
midseason in maturity. It is midtall in height. The stem is white
and strong; the spike apically anwletted, fusiform, mid-dense and
erect; glumes are glabrous, white midlong, and wide; shoulders are
wide, square, and slightly elevated; beaks are short, wide, obtuse,
and 1 to 2 mm long; awnlets are few, 5 to 40 mm long. The kernels are
red, midlong, hard and ovate; the germ is small; the crease is narrow
and shallow; the cheeks are rounded to angular; and the brush is
midsize and midlong.

Registration of Colt Wheat (Reg. No. 695).
J.W. Schmidt, V.A. Johnson, P.J. Mattern, A.F. Dreier, D.V. McVey, and
J.H. Hatchett
'COLT' wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. no. 695), PI 476975, is
a hard red winter wheat originating as an F3-derived line from the
1972 cross of 'Agate' Sib (NE69441) with Tx65A1503-1, a semidwarf line
selected from 391-56-D8/'Kaw'. Colt was developed cooperatively by
the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. and the USDA-ARS. It was tested as
NE78696 in the Nebraska Outstate Yield Trials from 191 through 1983,
in the 1982 and 1983 Northern Regional Performance Nursery, and in the
Southern Regional Performance Nursery in 1983.
Colt is midseason in maturity, averaging about 2 days later in
flowering than 'Scout 66'. Colt has averaged about 20 cm shorter in
height than Scout 66 and has the shorter coleoptile associated with a
reduced-height gene. Colt has significantly greater lodging
resistance than Scout 66. It is similar to Scout 66 in
winterhardiness and more productive in grain yield.
Spikes of Colt are awned, middense, tapering, white to yellow,
usually carried erect at maturity, and somewhat shorter than those of
Scout 66. Awns are white and longer than those of Scout 66. Glumes
are glabrous, midlong and midwide, with narrow, square to rounded
shoulders. Beaks are acuminate and very long. Kernels of Colt are
red, elliptical, semihard to hard, and similar to kernels of Scout 66
in size and weight. The kernels have a medium-large germ, brush of
medium length without a collar, rounded cheeks and a narrow, fairly
shallow crease. Test weights of Colt and Scout 66 are similar.
Grain of Colt has satisfactory hard wheat milling properties.
Flour of Colt is similar to that of Scout 66 in its bread-baking
characteristics such as dough mixing time (mellow), mixing tolerance
and loaf volume potential.
During field testing, Colt has been moderately resistant to leaf
rust (incited by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici
Eriks.), powdery mildew (incited by Erysiphe graminis DC. f. sp.
tritici E. Marchal), and stem rust (incited by Puccinia graminis Pers.
f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.). Colt is intermediate in its
reaction to soilborne mosaic virus but susceptible to wheat streak
mosaic virus. It has the 'Marquillo'-'Kawvale' type of resistance to
the Great Plains biotype of Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)].
Colt was named and released jointly by the Nebraska Agric. Exp.
Stn. and the USDA-ARS in 1983. Protection is being requested under
the Plant Variety Protection Act, Publish Law 91-577 with the
certified seed class option. Seed classes recognized are breeder,

REGISTRATION OF COLUMBIA WHEAT (Reg. No. 370)
E. G. Heyne
COLUMBIA, CI 12928, is a hard red winter wheat developed by the
Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station and the Crops Research
Division, ARS, USDA. This variety is a selection from the cross Rio-
Rex X Nebred made in 1942 at the Sherman Branch Station, Moro, Ore.
Progeny of the cross were carried in bulk with mass selection for bunt
resistance. Head row selections were grown in 1948 when the original
selection of Columbia was made (Moro selection number 482215).
Reselections were made in 1953 and about 300 heads rows, which were
uniform in height, maturity, and chaff color, were bulked to form
breeders seed. Columbia was released to growers in 1955 by the Oregon
and Washington Agricultural Experiment Stations. Application for
registration was made by William E. Hall and Wilson H. Foote.
Columbia was released to growers in the Pacific Northwest because
of its high yield and good quality, and smut resistance. It is
expected to replace Rio and other Turkey varieties. Columbia has
usually outyielded Rio, the commonly grown hard red winter wheat in
the Columbia Basin. Columbia yielded, on the average of 33 station
years from seven locations during 1951-1956 in Oregon, 24.5 bushels
perqa cre compared with 23.2 bushels per acre for Rio. In Washington
during the same period and number of locations, Columbia averaged 31.2
bushels per acre for 23 station years compared to 30.4 bushels per
acre for Rio. Columbia is best adapted to the 8 to 12-inch rainfall
areas. The test weight is equal to Rio. In the more humid areas, the
soft wheats yield more and the protein content of Columbis is too low
for production of good quality flour.
The spike of Columbia is bearded and fusiform. The glumes are
smooth and brown in color. The red kernels are long with a narrow
crease. The straw is medium in height and fairly stiff, but has the
typical "fine" straw of Turkey. Columbia equals Rio in winter
hardiness and makes more rapid spring recovery. Columbia does not
shatter easily and requires close adjustment of the cylinder and
concaves for threshing. The milling and baking quality is
satisfactory when grown in areas of adaptation so that the protein
content is 10 per cent or more. The flour has a long mixing time and
is useful for blending with shorter mixing time flours. This variety
resists all known races of both common and dwarf bunt. It is more
resistant to "blasting" than Rio. Columbia is susceptible to root
rots under certain conditions.

REGISTRATION OF COMANCHE WHEAT (Reg. No. 331)
J. A. Clark
COMANCHE (Ks. No. 2729, C. I. 11673) was developed by the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station in cooperative experiments with the
Division of Cereal Crops and Diseases, Bureau of Plant Industry. The
Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado, Wyoming, and Minnesota
agricultural experiment stations cooperated in testing this variety in
comparison with others in the hard red winter wheat region.
Comanche is the result of a selection made in the F5 generation
from an Oro (C. I. 8220) X Tenmarq selection (Ks. 2637) cross made at
Manhattan, Kans., in 1928. The F1 and F2 plants and F3 lines were
grown in the Agronomy Department plant breeding nursery. Additional
selections were made from special bunt-resistant material in the
Botany Department nursery in the F4 and F5 generations. The first
yield tests were made in the Agronomy Department nursery in 1934. It
was advanced to rod rows in 1935, to field plots in 1936, and was
included in the uniform yield nursery at nine stations in five central
and southern Great Plains states in 1937, and in uniform plot tests at
13 stations in 1938. Extensive tests throughout the region have been
continued to the present time. Summaries of the data upon which
registration is based are shown in Tables 2 to 5.
Comanche is a hard red winter wheat. Its superior
characteristics are high yield, good test weight, earliness, stiff
straw, milling and baking quality equal to Turkey, high resistance to
many important races of bunt, considerable resistance to leaf rust,
and more tolerance to stem rust than other varieties now grown in the
area. It is susceptible to loose smut and Hessian fly and posses only
moderate winterhardiness and, therefore, cannot be expected to be a
satisfactory variety north of the area where Blackhull and Tenmarq do
well. It was released for distribution in the fall of 1942.

REGISTRATION OF CONCHO WHEAT (Reg. No. 351)
F. N. Briggs
CONCHO wheat (CI 12517) was developed by the Oklahoma
Agricultural Experiment Station and the Field Crops Research Branch,
Agricultural Research Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture, from
the cross Comanche X Blackhull-Hard Federation. It was bred and
introduced by A. M. Schlehuber.
Average yields of Concho and the three varieties-Triumph, Pawnee,
and Comanche-mostly widely grown in Oklahoma and tested during all or
a part of the period 1949 to 1954 are shown in table 3. In the
nursery test grown at Stillwater, Woodward, and Cherokee for the
entire 6-year period, Concho outyielded Comanche by 4.8 bushels and
Pawnee by 6.7 bushels. In the variety test for 17 station years grown
at Goodwell in addition to the other 3 locations for 1950 and 1954,
Concho outyielded Comanche, Pawnee, and Triumph by 4.7, 6.6, and 6.8
bushels, respectively. In the State-wide Nurseries for the period
1950 to 1954 Concho significantly outyielded the other recommended
varieties in both western and eastern Oklahoma. For all tests in
Oklahoma, including 88 station years, Concho has yielded 16% more than
Comanche and 22% more than Pawnee and Triumph. Concho has outyielded
other recommended varieties in every section of the state.

nursery tests grown at Stillwater, Woodward, and Cherokee from 1949
through 1954. Concho exceeded Pawnee by 1.33 pounds per bushel and
Comanche by 1.52 pounds. In the variety tests grown 5 years each
(1959-54) at the 3 locations, Concho exceeded the test weight of
Pawnee by 1.92 pounds, of Comanche by 1.60 pounds, and of Triumph, a
high test weight variety, by 0.20 pound.

Registration of Cree Wheat (Reg. No. 712).
G.A. Taylor
'CREE', PI 491532, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum
L.) (Reg. no. 712) developed cooperatively by the Montana Agricultural
Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS and approved for release in March
1982. Cree was tested as MT 77063 in Montana trials from 1979 through
1981 and in regional trials in 1981 and 1982. Cree was selected as a
shatter resistant backcross derived F4 line at Montana State
University, Bozeman. The pedigree is MT 7302/4*'Cheyenne'. MT 7302
is a stiff-strawed, shatter resistant, semidwarf with awned brown
spikes selected from 'Norin 10'/'Brevor'14/2/3*'Yogo'. Following each
backcross, F3 progeny from shatter resistant F2 plants were used in
additional backcrosses with the recurrent parent Cheyenne.
Cree has awned, fusiform, upright spikes. The brown glumes are
glabrous, shoulder midwide to wide, oblique to elevated, and beaks are
acute. Kernels are hard red, midlong, elongate with small embryos,
narrow creases, cheeks rounded to angular with midsize brush.
Cree is recommended for those areas of Montana where stem rust
(caused by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp tritici Eriks. and Henn.) is
not a production problem, since it is susceptible. Cree is similar to
Cheyenne in exhibiting an intermediate field reaction to stripe rust
(caused by Puccinia striiformis West.) and to bacterial leaf spot
(caused by Pseudomonas syringae Van Hall).
Cree is very shatter resistant. The brown glumes will help
producers differentiate it from the shatter susceptible recurrent
parent Cheyenne, which Cree is intended to replace. Although the
heading date, winterhardiness, and height of Cree are similar to
Cheyenne, it outyields Cheyenne by 2 to 5%.
The milling and baking quality, test weight, grain protein, and
flour protein percentage are similar to Cheyenne and satisfactory.
Foundation seed of Cree was first released to seed growers in the
fall of 1983 and contained a small percentage of white glumed variant
types. A subsequent lot of breeder seed was established in an effort
to eliminate these variants. Breeder and foundation seed will be
maintained by the Montana Agricultural Experiment Station, Bozeman, MT
59717.

Registration of Crest Wheat (Reg. No. 483)
J. R. Welsh, V. R. Stewart, E. L. Sharp, G. A. Taylor and E. R. Hehn
'CREST' (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell), CI 13880, is a hard red
winter wheat (MT 6619) selected from the cross 'Westmont'*2/P.I.
178383 made in 1961 at the Montana Experiment Station. Selection was
made for stripe rust resistance and dwarf bunt resistance in field
tests at Bozeman and Kalispell with additional stripe rust screening
in environment control chambers. It was entered in the Western
Regional Hard Red Winter Nursery in 1966-67. The selection was
approved for naming and release in 1967 by the Montana Agricultural
Experiment Station.
Crest possesses both dominant and recessive genes for resistance
to prevalent races of stripe rust. All plants of Crest have the major
dominant gene of P.I. 178383 conditioning stripe rust resistance. The
variety is heterogeneous with respect to the three minor, recessive,
additive genes for P.I. 178383. Using monosomics, the three recessive
genes have been analyzed for chromosome location. The dominant gene
is epistatic to the recessives. Crest is resistant to all prevalent
races of dwarf bunt, including D-3.
Milling and baking properties of this variety have been tested by
institutional and commercial laboratories and have proven acceptable.
Crest is awned with brown glumes. It is about 10 cm shorter and
four days earlier heading than Cheyenne. In 15 station-year trials
Crest outyielded Cheyenne by 335 kg/ha and maintained an equivalent
test weight.
Pure seed will be maintained by the Montana Agricultural
Experiment Station.

REGISTRATION OF CROCKETT WHEAT (Reg No. 363)
E. G. Heyne
CROCKETT, CI 12702, is a hard red winter wheat. It was developed
by the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station and the Crops Research
Division, ARS, USDA (1). I. M. Atkins made the application for the
registration. An F2, leaf rust-resistant plant selected from the
cross Sinvalocho-Wichita X Hope-Cheyenne was crossed to Wichita in
1940. The final selection resulting in Crockett was made in 1947.
This variety has been in Texas Intra-State and regional performance
trials since 1950. A limited amount of seed was distributed in the
fall of 1956 and there was an estimated 1800 acres grown in 1957.
The superior characters of Crockett are high yield, high test
weight, good quality, and resistance to leaf rust. Performance data
on Crockett and 4 other varieties on yield, tet weight, date of
heading, plant height, and leaf rust are given in table 1. During 6
years of trial, Crockett exceeded other early varities in most
comparisons. Compared to Wichita it yielded, on the average, nearly 2
bushe4ls more per acre on the High Plains; 3.2 bushels more on the
Rolling Plains; and 4.1 bushels more in North-Central Texas. Its
average test weight was equal to that of Wichita. Crockett is 4 to 6
days later to head than Early Blackhull, about the same hight or
slightly taller. Crockett has excellent resistance to the prevalent
races of leaf rust. It is susceptible to some races but should
provide adequate protection for several years.

Crockett is similar to Wichita in general appearance. It is a
bearded variety with white glumes and black stripes. The black color
is not prominent and varies in expression under different growing
conditions. The kernels of Crockett are similar to Comanche but
probably are more smooth and less subject to shriveling than Comanche
kernels. Crockett is susceptible to stem rust, wheat streak mosaic,
soil-borne mosaic, and bunt. It is moderately resistant to loose
smut. Although not winterhardy enough for the main hard winter wheat
belt, it is sufficiently hardy for North-Central and Northwestern
Texas where it is recommended. It has good performance records in
Oklahoma and Kansas during the absence of severe winter damage.
Crockett produces grain of good quality for miling and baking
purposes. It is not equal to Comanche but is better than Wichita or
Triumph and quite superior to Early Blackhull in baking
characteristics.

Registration of Danne Wheat (Reg. No. 488).
E. L. Smith, L. H. Edwards, H. Pass, D. C. Abbott, and H. C. Young
'DANNE' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.), CI 13876, Danne
129-16, OK 60431, is a hard red winter wheat released in 1970 by the
Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment Station and the Crops Research
Division. Agricultural Research Service, U. S. Department of
Agriculture. Danne traces to one of several hundred breeder's samples
bequeathed to the above agencies in 1959 by the late Joseph E. Danne,
a private plant breeder. According to Mr. Danne's records, the
selection originated from a cross made in 1950 between C55-4-17-18
('super Triumph') and C66-45-3 (a strain of complex pedigree). There
is no record of the breeding procedures from 1951 to 1959, but
presumably, an early generation plant selection designated as C129-16
was made by Mr. Danne. The sample of C129-16 was first grown at the
Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment Station in 1961; and since it
appeared to be uniform in maturity, height, and spike characteristics,
no reselections were made.
Danne has a winter growth habit, is early in maturity, and is
midtall in plant height. The stem is white and midstrong; the spike
is awned, fusiform to oblong, middense, and inclined to nodding at
maturity; the glumes are glabrous, white, midlong, and narrow to
midwide; the shoulders are narrow and oblique to square; the beaks are
midwide, acuminate, and vary from 2 to 5 mm in length, the awns are
white and 3 to 8 cm in length; the kernels are red, short to midlong,
hard to semihard, and ovate; the germ is midsized; the crease is
midwide and shallow to middeep; the cheeks are rounded; the brush is
midsized and midlong.
Danne is similar to 'Triumph' in most agronomic characteristics
including maturity, test weight, plant height, winterhardiness, and
straw strength. However, it does not appear to be as resistant to
loose smut as Triumph. Under extensive performance testing in
Oklahoma it has exceeded Triumph by 14% in grain yield. Danne has
better overall baking properties than Triumph, being particularly
stronger in dough mixing characteristics and higher in loaf volume
potential. It should be an appreciable improvement over Triumph for
the production of commercial bakery flour. Compared with Triumph, it
is generally lower in percent kernel protein. It is recommended for
production in all areas where Triumph is grown.
Breeder seed, resulting from a composite of 270 progeny head
rows, will be maintained by the Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Registration of Dawn Wheat (Reg. No. 654).
D. G. Wells, J. J. Bonnemann, W. S. Gardner, and K. F. Finney
'DAWN' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell., CI 17801, is a
hard red winter wheat cultivar developed by the Colorado Agric. Exp.
Stn.
Dawn was derived from the cross II21031/Trapper/2/CO652363. The
pedigree of CO652363 is Warrier/2/Kenya 58/Newthatch/2*(Cheyenne/
Tenmark/Mediterranean)/Hope/3/Parker. During testing, Dawn was
identified as CO701733. Dawn resembles Scout types in winter
hardiness. Straw strength and test weight are similar to 'Centurk.'
It is 3 to 5 cm shorter than Centurk. Dawn heads at the same time as
'Scout 66'. Spikes are awned, midlong, middense, fusiform, and nearly
erect. Glumes are white, glabrous, midlong, midwide with shoulders
that may be wanting, and oblique or sometimes apiculate with beaks 2
to 12 mm long.
Kernels are red, hard, midlong and elliptical. The germ is
midsized. The cheeks are rounded and the crease is shallow. The
brush is wide and mid-long.
Dawns resists the prevalent races of the stem rust organism
(Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks and E. Henn) and is
moderately resistant to the prevalent races of the leaf rust organism
(Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici). It resists the
Great Plains race of the Hessian fly (Mayetiolia destructor Say) and
is tolerant of wheat streak mosaic.
Dawn has good milling qualities and bakes as well or better than
Scout 66 and 'Gage'. It has a longer bake mixing time, stronger dough
characteristics, lower water absorption, greater loaf volume, and
better grain and texture than Scout 66 and Gage.
In the Northern Regional Performance Nursery, Dawn ranked first
in yield in 1975 and 1977. It also ranked first in yield averaged
over the years 1976 and 1977.
In state tests, 1974 to 1980, Dawn yielded more than Scout 66 and
Centurk at Presho, Brookings and Redfield but less at Highmore and
Onida. At Wall it outyielded Scout 66 but not Centurk. At Bison it
equalled Scout 66 but not Centurk.
Dawn combines tolerance of wheat streak mosaic and resistance to
leaf and stem rust with stiff, short straw and a yield of grain the
past 5 years 9 and 36% higher than Scout 66 and Centurk in the main
winter wheat area in South Dakota.
Breeder seed will be maintained by the Foundation Seed Stocks
Division, South Dakota State Univ., Brookings, SD 57007. Dawn is not
being patented.

Registration of Delmar Wheat (Reg. No. 409).
Wade G. Dewey
DELMAR, CI 13442, is a hard red winter wheat developed by the
Utah Agricultural Experiment Station. It is a selection (208-63-2-1)
from a cross made in 1949 between Utah Kanred and Brevor.
Delmar has a winter habit of growth, is midseason and midtall.
The various parts show the following features: stem-white, strong;
spike-awned, oblong (sometimes slightly clavate), middense, erect;
glumes-glabrous, white, midlong, midwide; shoulders-midwide, rounded:
beaks-narrow, acuminate, 3 to 5 mm. long; awns-white, 2 to 10 cm.
long; kernels-red, midlong, hard, ovate to elliptical; germ-midsized;
crease-midwide, middeep to shallow; cheeks-rounded; brush-midsized to
small, midlong.
It possesses good resistance to most races of common bunt and has
generally smutted considerably less to the D-3 race of dwarf bunt than
such varieties and Tendoy, Columbia, Itana, and Westmont (Table 1).
It has also shown moderate resistance to stripe rust in Utah.
Delmar was tested in Utah from 1955 to 1961 and in the Western
Regional Nursery from 1959 to 1961 prior to its release to certified
seed growers in the fall of 1961. Its relative yield performance in
the regional tests is shown in Table 2. In tests thus far, Delmar has
produced yields comparable to those of the better varieties presently
being grown in the Intermountain area. Although it was developed
primarily for Utah's drylands, it is finding considerable use under
irrigation because of its stiff straw.
It far exceeds either parent, as well as Utah's present
predominant varieties, Cache and Wasatch, in its tolerance to mixing.
It also produces a good loaf of bread. A detailed account of Delmar's
bunt resistance, quality characteristics, and yield performance has
been reported.
Undesirable characteristics are a slightly lower than average
test weight and its brittle rachis which sometimes necessitates
careful combine setting to eliminate whitecaps in the threshed grain.
Foundation seed stocks are being maintained by the Utah
Experiment Station in cooperation with the Utah Crop Improvement
Association.

Registration of Dodge Wheat (Reg. No. 724).
T. J. Martin, R. G. Sears, D. L. Wetzel, M. D. Shogren, J. R. Lawless,
and M. D. Witt
'DODGE' (Reg. no. 724, PI 506344, KS82H144) is a hard red winter
wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS. It was selected
from the cross KS73H530 ('Newton' sib)/KS76HN1978-1 ('Arkan' sib).
The cross was made at the Fort Hays Branch Agricultural Experiment
Station by the late Dr. R. W. Livers in the winter of 1976-1977.
Dodge is an increase of an F5 plant row, grown at Oxford, KS in 1981.
It was distributed to Kansas seed producers in 1986.
Dodge is medium-early in maturity, it heads about 1 to 2 d
earlier than Newton and 1 d later than Arkan. Doge is semidwarf in
stature, 30 mm shorter than Newton, but its coleoptile length is 10%
longer than that of Newton. Its winterhardiness is equal to that of
Newton. Spikes of Dodge are oblong to fusiform and middense. Glumes
are white, midlong, and narrow to midwide. Shoulders are narrow and
oblique in basal glumes and approach square at midspike to the top.
Beaks are midwide, acuminate, and 3 to 6 mm long. Awns are white and
range from 2 to 7 mm long on a single spike. The kernel is red, hard,
midlong, and ovate to elliptical; the germ is small to midsmall; the
crease is midwide and middeep; the cheeks are angular; and the brush
is midsized, midlong, and has no collar.
Dodge was evaluated in Kansas advanced performance tests from
1983 to 1986, in the Kansas Wheat Variety Performance Tests in 1986,
and in the 1985 and 1986 Southern Regional Performance Nurseries and
appears to be best adapted for production in the southern two-thirds
of western Kansas. Its yield has been superior or equal to that of
the most commonly grown cultivars in western Kansas (Newton, 'Larned',
and 'TAM 105') and its grain volume weight has been superior compared
to these cultivars.
Hard wheat milling and bread making qualities of Dodge are
excellent. Mixing time of Dodge, as measured by the mixograph, is
about 0.5 min shorter than that of 'Eagle', but its is rated equal to
Eagle in overall baking quality. Grain protein of Doge has averaged
0.8 of a percentage point higher than that of Arkan or Eagle and 1.8
percentage points higher than that of Newton.
Dodge has resistance to wheat soilborne mosaic virus, leaf rust
(caused by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. Tritici Eriks), and
stem rust (caused by P. graminis Pers. f. sp tritici Eriks and E.
Henn.). It is moderately resistant to speckled leaf blotch (caused by
Septoria tritici Rob. in Desm). It is susceptible to wheat streak
mosaic virus and Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor Say).
Application for cultivar protection under the Plant Variety
Protection Act, Public Law 91-577 has been made. Dodge breeder's seed
will be maintained at the Fort Hays Branch Experiment Station, Hays,
KS 67601.

Registration of Eagle Wheat (Reg. No. 563).
R.D. Livers and K.F. Finney
'EAGLE' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.),
CI 15068, KS6728, was developed cooperatively by the Kan. Agric. Exp.
Stn. and the ARS, USDA. Released in 1970, Eagle is a pure line
resulting from a selection program that began at the Fort Hays Branch
Exp. Stn. in 1962. The program involved 1,800 head selections from
heterogenous 'Scout,' which has the pedigree 'Nebred'/2/'Hope'/
'Turkey'/4/'Cheyenne'/3/'Ponca.'
Eagle is awned, is moderately early in maturity, and has
moderately short, strong stems. Spikes are oblong to fusiform; they
are middense and erect. Glumes are white, glabrous, long, and narrow.
Shoulders are narrow, wanting on basal glumes, approaching square at
midspike, and ranging to apiculate at the top of the spike. Beaks are
narrow, acuminate, 2 to 7 mm-long. Awns are white, 3 to 11 cm-long.
The kernel is red, hard, midlong, and elliptical; the germ is small;
the crease is narrow and deep; cheeks are rounded; and the brush is
midsized and midlong.
Quality evaluation of Eagle has been underway at the Hard Winter
Wheat Quality Lab. since 1965, when the strain was first identified as
Scout Selection #276. Eagle's overall milling properties are good;
they equal those of Scout. Eagle possesses superior overall
functional (breadmaking) properties. Loaf-volume potential is
excellent and crumb grain is better than average. Eagle requires
little oxidation, about half that of Scout and most hard winter
wheats. Baking absorption is high, about 1.5% higher than that of
Scout. Mixing time of Eagle is medium long, and its other physical-
dough properties are medium strong to strong. Comparative data are
averages of 1967, 1968, and 1969 Kan. Intrastate Nursery composites
and 1969, 1970, and 1971 Southern Regional Performance Nursery
composites. Data for Eagle and Scout, respectively, are 12.8 and
12.1% flour protein, 5.4 and 3.5 min. mixing time, and 964 and 912 cc
loaf volume. Eagle is one of the best-quality cultivars ever grown in
Kansas.
Eagle heads a day later than scout, but ripens sooner. Eagle
averages 6 cm shorter than Scout. It lodges less than Scout and has
more nearly erect straw. The tolerance of Eagle to wheat streak
mosaic virus has been superior to that of all other commercial
cultivars so far observed in Kansas experiments and natural
epiphytotics. Eagle resists stem rust and loose smut in the field,
but is susceptible to leaf rust, bunt, and Hessian fly. It is similar
to Scout in winterhardiness, resistance to shattering, volume weight,
and grain yield. Widely tested in Kansas since 1907, Eagle was
evaluated in the Southern Regional Performance Nursery in 1969, 1970,
and 1971. Intended as a replacement for Scout in Kansas, Eagle has
superior straw strength, excellent tolerance to streak mosaic virus,
and outstanding physical-dough and other breadmaking properties.
Breeder seed of Eagle will be maintained at the Fort Hays Branch
Exp. Stn., Hays, KS 67601.

Registration of Fox Wheat (Reg. No. 524).
O. G. Merkle, E. C. Gilmore, and F. J. Gough
'FOX' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.), CI
13987, was selected in F3 from a bulk of the cross 'Agent'/'Tascosa.'
The cross was made at College Station, Texas in 1958. The cultivar
was released cooperatively by the Plant Science Research Division,
Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture and the
Texas Agricultural Experiment Station in 1970. Fox was tested in
observation and yield nurseries as Tx62C436.
Fox is midseason in maturity and midtall in height. The stem is
white (light brown), midstrong, and small, and it leans slightly at
maturity. Spikes are awned, fusiform, middense, and inclined to
nodding at maturity. Glumes are glabrous, brown, midlong, and
midwide, while the shoulders are oblique to rounded. Beaks are
midwide, acuminate, and 4 to 12 mm long. Awns are white (light brown)
and 2 to 9 mm long. Kernels are red, midlong, and ovate, with
midsized germ. The crease is midwide and shallow, with rounded
cheeks. Brush is midsized and short.
Fox was resistant to all known races of leaf rust present in the
United States at the time of its release; however, it is now
susceptible to the same race that attacks Agent. It is moderately
resistant to stem rust, moderately susceptible to loose smut, and
susceptible to mildew.
Fox is less winterhardy than Tascosa, but it is sufficiently
hardy for all areas of Texas other than the High Plains. Although it
does have some winterhardiness, its vernalization requirement is low.
It has a slight tendency to shatter under dry harvest conditions.
Fox has long mixing time and good bread wheat milling and baking
characteristics. It has a higher yield record than most of the
commercial varieties tested in its area of adaptation in the state.
Breeders seed is maintained by the Foundation Seedstocks Section,
Texas Agricultural Experiment Station, College Station, Texas 77843.

Registration of Franklin Wheat (Reg. No. 521).
D. W. Sunderman and Martin Wise
'FRANKLIN', CI 15317, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum
aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the Idaho Agricultural
Experiment Station and the Western Region, Agricultural Research
Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. Franklin was released
jointly by the Agricultural Research Service and the Idaho
Agricultural Experiment Station in 1972.
Franklin was selected from the cross 'Cheyenne'*2/PI 178383 made
at the Aberdeen Branch of the Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station in
1962. The variety evolved from a single F5 line which had stripe rust
and common bunt resistance in the 1967 disease nursery. Franklin has
been in Idaho yield and disease nurseries since 1968. It was entered
in the 1971 Western Regional Hard Red Winter Wheat Nursery. Franklin
has shown good resistance to all races of dwarf bunt in evaluations
made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Regional Disease Research
Laboratory at Pullman, Washington.
Franklin is a midseason, tall variety with medium straw strength.
Heads of Franklin thresh easily and on rare occasions exhibit light
shattering. Franklin is resistant to prevalent races of stripe rust
and dwarf bunt found in southern Idaho.
In 3 years of testing at Tetonia, the average yield of Franklin
was 2,786 kg/ha (41.1 bu/acre) compared with 2,670 kg/ha (39.7
bu/acre) for 'Tendoy.' Franklin has a lower test weight than Tendoy.
Milling and baking qualities are satisfactory.
Spikes of Franklin are inclined, awned, oblong to fusiform and
middense. Glumes are white, midlong and midwide; shoulders midwide
and oblique to elevated; beaks narrow, acuminate, 2 to 11 mm long.
Kernels are hard, red, midlong, ovate to elliptical; germ midsized;
crease midwide, shallow, cheeks rounded; brush midsized and midlong.
Breeder seed is maintained by the University of Idaho at the
Tetonia Branch Experiment Station.

Registration of W-332 Wheat (Reg. No. 534).
L. D. Robertson and K. E. Miskin
'W-332' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.),
CI 17244, was developed by Funk Seeds International, Inc. and released
in 1972. The pedigree of W-332 is 'Scout'*5/'Agent.' Seed of the
fifth backcross was obtained from Colorado State University in 1966.
In subsequent years heavy selection pressure was applied for leaf rust
resistance, strong straw and early maturity. Seed from 97 F3 rows
which had favorable agronomic type, acceptable quality, and were
phenotypically similar were composited to form the variety.
Seed of W-332 is red, large, hard in texture, and ovate in shape.
The germ is small; crease is narrow and deep with rounded cheeks. The
brush is midsized with midlong hair. W-332 is a winter-habit variety,
with winterhardiness equal to that of Scout. W-332 has early to
midseason maturity and is midtall. The culms are white, midstrong
with solid nodes and hollow internodes. Leaves are narrow and free of
pubescence with an erect flag leaf. Spike is fusiform, middense, and
awned. Awns vary from 2 to 8 cm in length and are white at maturity.
Spike carriage ranges from erect to nodding. Glumes at maturity are
white, narrow, and long, averaging 7 to 8 mm on length. Glume
shoulders are narrow and oblique. The beaks are narrow, acuminate,
and predominantly short, averaging 1 to 3 mm.
As W-332 is a backcross derivative of Scout, it is similar to
Scout in most agronomic and quality characteristics. W-332 can be
distinguished from Scout because it is 2 to 4 days later in heading
and 3 cm taller. The most important differences are that W-332 has the
Agent leaf rust resistance and stronger straw. W-332 has a slightly
lower percent flour protein and raw sedimentation value and a slightly
longer mixing time than Scout. Flour yield and loaf volume are equal
to those of Scout. W-332 has the same broad adaptation as Scout but
can be grown farther east because of its strong straw.
Fund Seeds International, Inc., will be the sole source of
registered seed of W-332. U. S. Variety Protection has been applied
for.

Registration of W-335 Wheat (Reg. No. 569).
L. G. Campbell, K. E. Misken, and M. L. Kiesewetter
'W-335' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.),
CI 17350, was developed by Funk Seeds International, a company of
CIBA-GEIGY Corp., and released in 1975. W-335 was selected from a
composite cross obtained from Colorado State Univ. One hundred and
eleven heads were selected from F plants in 1968. These were observed
in head rows in 1969 and in single plots in 1970. One hundred heads
were selected from one of the promising lines and planted in head rows
in 1971. Eighty-eight of these rows were composited to form the
cultivar. W-335 has been in preliminary and advanced yield tests
since that time. It was entered in the Southern Regional Performance
Nursery under the experimental designation 7173. The exact parentage
of W-335 is not known.
W-335 is midseason to late maturity (4 days later than 'Parker'),
has a semi-erect juvenile growth habit, short white culms with hollow
internodes and solid nodes. Spikes are middense, fusiform, awned, and
usually nodding at maturity. Glumes are white, glabrous, midlong,
midwide, and have rounded shoulders. Beaks are midwide, acuminate,
and from 3 to 8 mm long. Kernels of W-335 are elliptical with rounded
cheeks, midsize embryos, narrow shallow creases, and collared brushes
of medium length.
W-335 is moderately resistant to leaf rust (Puccini recondite f.
s. tritici) and is susceptible to soilborne mosaic and wheat streak
mosaic. W-335 resists lodging better than 'Centurk' and 'Scout 66,'
but has on occasion tended to become weak if allowed to stand past
maturity. W-335 may be sensitive to available moisture as its
relative yields are better in environments where moisture is not
limiting during vegetative growth. W-335 has a relatively long mixing
time and good loaf volume potential. Its flour yield is slightly
lower than most hard winter wheat cultivars.
Funk Seeds International will be the sole source of registered
seed of W-335. U.S. Variety Protection has been applied for.

Registration of Gage Wheat (Reg. No. 442).
V. A. Johnson, J. W. Schmidt, A. F. Drier, and P. J. Mattern
'GAGE' (Triticum aestivum L.) CI 13532, is a hard red winter
wheat selected in the F3 generation from the cross 'Ponca' X
('Mediterranean'-'Hope' X 'Pawnee') made at Lincoln, Nebraska, in
1947. It is a product of the cooperative program of the Nebraska
Agricultural Experiment Station and the Agricultural Research Service,
USDA. Parent stock for the cross was obtained from the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station. As Nebraska Selection 521896, Gage
was evaluated in observation rows and plots at Lincoln until 1956 when
it was entered in Nebraska station nursery trials. It was advanced to
outstate tests and the Southern Regional Performance Nursery in 1960.
Gage was distributed to Nebraska producers in the fall of 1963.
Gage has the winter habit of growth and is moderately early
maturing. Its straw is white and moderately short and strong. The
spike is large, white in color, erect, bearded, mid-dense, and
fusiform. The glumes are mid-wide and long with square shoulders,
beaks 4 to 6 mm. long, and awns 4 to 9 cm. long. Gage produces large,
red, elliptical kernels.
The yield potential of Gage is high. In statewide tests during
the period 196-1964, it outyielded 'Ottawa'. "Omaha,' and 'Pawnee,'
Although its relative yield was highest when the rusts were prevalent,
Gage also was superior in yield when these diseases were not
performance factors. Data from the uniform winter-hardiness nursery
indicate that Gage is equal to Pawnee in winter-hardiness and slightly
superior to Ottawa. Test weight is acceptable, averaging about 1
pound per bushel less than Ottawa. Performance data appears in Tables
1 and 2.
Annual quality evaluation of Gage was made by the Hard Winter
Wheat Quality Laboratory beginning in 1956 and by the Nebraska Wheat
Quality Laboratory, beginning in 1960. It was evaluated by commercial
millers and bakers from 1961 to 1963. Gage is a mellow gluten variety
with mixing time, loaf volume, water absorption, and other baking
quality characteristics similar to those of Ottawa. It mills well and
produces a normal yield of flour.
Although there was no reselection after the initial head
selection in the F3 generation, Gage is relatively uniform for
observable morphologic and agronomic characteristics. Some
heterogeneity is suggested by intermediate and variable reactions to
soil-borne mosaic and hessian fly.
Foundation seed of Gage will be maintained by the Nebraska
Agricultural Experiment Station. Seed classes of Gage designated by
the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station are breeder, foundation,
and certified.

Registration of Gent Wheat (Reg. No. 588).
D. G. Wells, J. J. Bonnermann, and H. S. Sandhu
'GENT' CI 17293, a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em
Thell.) is a composite of nine selections developed at the Hays
(Kansas) Branch Experiment Station from the cross 'Agent'/4* 'Scout'.
The nine lines were the best ones agronomically among many tested in
South Dakota for winterhardiness and yield in 1970-73. The South
Dakota selection is SD 7117. It appeared in the Southern and Northern
Regional Performance Nurseries in 1972 and 1973 and in state-wide
trials from 1972 onward. Gent was released in 1974.
Gent is mid-tall in height and medium in maturity. It ripens at
the same time as 'Scout 66'. The stem is white and mid-strong; the
spike is awned, fusiform, mid-dense, and inclined; the glumes are
glabrous, white, mid-long, and narrow; the shoulders are narrow and
oblique; the beaks are narrow, acuminate, and from 1 to 9 mm long; the
awns are white and 3 to 9.5 cm long; the kernels are red, mid-long,
hard and ovate; the cheeks are rounded to angular; and the brush is
mid-sized to large and mid-long.
Gent contains some admixture of brown-headed rogues and resembles
Scout 66 in height, straw strength, test weight, and baking
characteristics, but may not quite equal Scout 66 in milling
characteristics. It is resistant to all endemic races of the leaf
rust organism (Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici) except
race 2A Ag (H.C. Young, Jr., unpublished data). Gent is resistant to
stem rust (P. graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks.) and is tolerant of
wheat streak mosaic virus. In a four replicate Crop Performance Test
north of Quinn, S. Dak. in 1974 where all plots were uniformly and
heavily infected with the WSMV, Gent yielded 1,887 kg/ha of 73 kg/hl
test weight, Scout 66 yielded 1,617 kg/ha of 73 kg/hl test weight, and
'Homestead', a cultivar susceptible to WSMV, yielded 1,213 kg/ha of 65
kg/hl test weight. At Bison, 322 km north of Quinn where WSMV was not
present and in the same uniform test, Gent yielded 2,695 kg/ha of 79
kg/hl test weight, Scout 66 yielded 2,089 kg/ha of 78 kg/hl test
weight, and Homestead yielded 2,290 kg/ha of 76 kg/hl test weight.
Gent then yielded 17% more than Scout 66 at Quinn and 29% more at
Bison. It yielded 56% more than Homestead at Quinn and 18% more at
Bison. In all South Dakota tests for 1972-76, Gent averaged 4% higher
yield than Scout 66.
Breeder seed is maintained by the South Dakota Agricultural
Experiment Station, Brookings, SD 57006.

Registration of Golden 50 Wheat (Reg. No. 464).
E. G. Heyne
'Golden 50,' Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell., is a hard red
winter wheat selected by E.G. Clark of Sedgwick, Kansas, from 'Rodco.'
Rodco is a mixture of two varieties released by the Rodney Milling Co.
of Kansas City. Rodco is a mixture of two types. The red-chaffed
component is similar to 'Concho' for all traits studied. The white-
chaffed component is very similar to an experimental strain CI 12406
from the cross 'Marquillo'-'Oro' X 'Oro-Tenmarq.'
Clark selected white-chaffed plants from Rodco and carefully
evaluated 11 lines and began increase of 1 line in the fall of 1962.
He named the selection Golden 50, because 1962 was 50 years after his
discovery of 'Blackhull' in a field of Turkey wheat in 1912. Golden
50 first was sold to the public in the fall of 1963.
Golden 50 has a winter growth habit; matures midseason to late;
has a midtall, white, strong stem; spike is awned, fusiform, middense,
inclined; the glumes are glabrous, white midwide and midlong; the
shoulders are midwide and square to rounded; the beaks vary in length
t to 15 mm; the awns are white, 3 to 7 cm long; the kernels are red,
hard, short, oval with a small germ; the crease is middeep; the cheeks
more angular than round; the brush midsize and midlong.
The important characteristics of Golden 50 are resistance to
Hessian fly, bunt, and leaf rust and long dough mixing time. Yield
performance is average, test weight below average, and maturity is
later than desired by most Kansas growers.
Clark worked with Elden Smurr, chemist, American Flours Co. of
Newton, Kansas, in quality evaluation of the white-chaffed selections
and retained lines with long mixing time. The long dough mixing time
of Golden 50 is one of its important characteristics. The mixing
tolerance is also good. The loaf volume potential is average. The
strong mixing character of the protein makes this variety useful for
blending with weaker wheats for bread flour production.
A number of comparisons of Golden 50 have been made with CI 12406
which is a selection of the cross Marquillo X Oro X 2 X Oro-Tenmarq.
They are the same for response to rusts, bunt, loose smut, Hessian
fly, maturity, height, and grain appearance and they produce the same
type mixogram curve. However, Golden 50 is more uniform in height and
heading, sometimes appearing to be a day earlier in heading than CI
12406. Mr. Clark maintains seed of Golden 50 on his farm near
Sedgwick, Kansas.

Registration of Guide Wheat (Reg. No. 486).
V. A. Johnson, J. W. Schmidt, P. J. Mattern, and A. F. Dreier
'GUIDE' wheat, Triticum aestivum L., Nebraska Selection 61608, CI
13856, is a hard red winter wheat cultivar selected from the cross
'Cheyenne'*2/2/'Kenya'/Mentana' made at Lincoln, Nebraska in 1957.
The Kenya/Mentana parent was Selection 56-8c-17c-7c-13c from the
Rockefeller-Mexican wheat improvement program. Guide was developed
cooperatively by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and
Crops Research Division, Agricultural Research Service, U.S.
Department of Agriculture. It was released to Nebraska certified
wheat producers in 1967.
Guide is an awned, white-glumed winter cultivar with seed that is
moderately hard and red in color. An F2 plant, selected for hard seed
and stem rust resistance, was propagated without further selection as
Nebraska Selection 61608. Yield testing of NB61608 in Nebraska was
initiated in 1962. NB61608 was advanced to the Southern Regional
Performance Nursery in 1963. Guide is an early maturing cultivar with
moderately short stiff straw. It exhibits adult plant resistance to
the stem rust races prevalent in the hard red winter wheat region
during its testing period. It is susceptible to leaf rust, loose
smut, bunt, streak and soil-borne mosaic, and hessian fly. Guide has
only fair winterhardiness, and its production in Nebraska has been
encouraged only in the south central and southwest cropping districts.
The quality of Guide is excellent. It mills satisfactorily and
produces flour with moderately long mixing dough requirement and good
mixing tolerance. It received high quality ratings from commercial
mill and bakery collaborators prior to release.
Guide is somewhat less productive than the popular 'Scout'
variety. Its use by growers as a second variety on a portion of their
acreage provides a broader base of stem rust resistance and spreads
their production and harvest risks.
Breeder seed of Guide will be maintained by the Department of
Agronomy, Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station.

Registration of Hansel Wheat (Reg. No. 566).
Wage G. Dewey
'HANSEL', CI 17296, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. em Thell.) developed and released by the Utah Agric. Exp. Stn. in
1974. It was selected as a single F4 plant in 1966 from the cross
'Delmar' / PI178383 /2/ 'Columbia'. During its intrastate and
regional testing it was identified as UT 755204.
Hansel was selected primarily for its high level of resistance to
dwarf bunt (Tilletia controversa Kuhn). It has shown less than 1%
bunt under artificially-inoculated conditions where 'Cache' and
'Bridger', the cultivars it will likely replace, have averaged over
50%. Hansel also represents an improvement in baking quality over
Cache and has generally shown a slight yield advantage over Bridger.
Hansel is medium in maturity, has awned, bronze-chaffed, fusiform
spikes and medium to tall, white culms. The straw is limber and not
suited to irrigated conditions. The kernels are red, hard and
midlong.
Hansel exhibits good seedling emergence and excellent early
spring vigor. In addition to dwarf bunt resistance, it possesses
resistance to the races of stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis West)
commonly found in Utah.
Hansel has strong sedimentation and mixing properties and good
loaf volume.
Hansel derives its name from Hansel Valley, one of the chronic
dwarf bunt problem areas in northern Utah. Breeder and Foundation
seed will be maintained by the Utah Agric. Exp. Stn., Logan, UT 84322.

Registration of Heglar Wheat (Reg. No. 555).
D. W. Sunderman and Bernard Bruinsma
HEGLAR (CI 17269) is a hard red winter wheat, which was selected
as an F6 line from the cross 'Cheyenne'/Utah 175a-53 made in 1957 at
the Aberdeen branch of the Idaho Agr. Exp. Stn. Heglar was tested as
Idaho Selection 0010 in the Idaho yield trials from 1966 to 1973 and
in the western regional winter wheat nursery from 1969 to 1971.
Heglar was released jointly by the developing agencies in 1974 for use
in dwarf bunt-free areas of southern Idaho.
Heglar is a tall, moderately stiff-strawed variety of medium
maturity. Spikes of Heglar are erect, awned, fusiform, and middense.
Glumes are white, glabrous, midlong, and midwide; shoulders midwide,
and oblique to square; beaks narrow, acuminate, and 3 to 6-mm long.
Kernels are hard, red, midlong, and ovate; crease midwide and middeep;
cheeks rounded; brush midsized and short. Heglar is resistant to
stripe rust and susceptible to dwarf bunt.
In four years of testing at two southern Idaho locations, the
average yield for Heglar was 2,724 kg/ha compared with 2,610 kg/ha for
'Ranger' and 2,590 kg/ha for 'Wanser.' Heglar produced grain with a
slightly higher test weight and higher grain protein content than that
from Ranger and Wanser. Heglar has satisfactory milling and baking
properties.
Breeder seed of all four wheat cultivars will be maintained by
the University of Idaho at the Tetonia Branch Exp. Stn.

Registration of HiPlains Wheat (Reg. No. 573).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, and D. V.
McVey
'HiPLAINS' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.), CI 17262 is a
hard red winter wheat selected in the F3 generation from the cross
'Gage'/'Lancer' made in 1962 at the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. It was
developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agric. Exp. stn. and ARS-USDA
and tested in the Northern Regional Performance Nursery as Nebraska
Selection 68427.
HiPlains is a medium-maturing winter wheat, maturing at about the
same time as Lancer or sometimes a day later. It has medium-short,
medium-strong straw. The spike is white, awned, tapering, middense,
and erect. Glumes are white, glabrous, short, and narrow, with
shoulders narrow and square to oblique, and with long acuminate beaks.
Awns are 5 to 9 cm long. The kernels are red, hard, short to midlong
and ovate; germ midsized; crease shallow; and cheeks rounded.
HiPlains is intermediate to Gage and Lancer in winter-hardiness,
somewhat superior to Lancer in straw strength but may shatter more
than Lancer. It is resistant or moderately resistant to current stem
rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. & E. Henn.) races,
moderately susceptible to soil-borne mosaic virus and leaf rust (P.
rubigo-vera (De.)Wint. f. sp. tritici (Eriks.) Carl.) and fully
susceptible to wheat streak mosaic virus. It provides some protection
against Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)] in western Nebraska.
HiPlains has very good milling and baking characteristics: average
grain protein content, good loaf volume, medium dough-mixing time and
good mixing tolerance.
HiPlains was named and released in 1973. HiPlains is protected
(Certificate 74100110) under the Plant Variety Protection Act, Public
Law 91-577, by the Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn., and may be sold only as
a class of certified seed. Seed classes recognized are breeder,
foundation, registered, and certified. The Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn.

J.W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, and D. V.
McVey
'HOMESTEAD' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.), CI 17264, is
a hard red winter wheat selected in the F3 generation from the cross
'Scout' /4/ 'Kenya 58' / 'Newthatch' /2/ 'Cheyenne' / 'Tenmarq' /
'Mediterranean' / 'Hope' /3/ 'Pawnee' / Cheyenne made in 1962 at the
Nebraska Agric. Exp. Stn. 'Sentinel' also was selected from this
cross. Homestead was developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agric.
Exp. Stn. and ARS-USDA and tested in the Southern Regional Performance
Nursery as Nebraska Selection 68437.
Homestead is an early-maturing winter wheat. It has medium
short, moderately strong straw. The spike is white, awned, tapering,
erect and middense. Glumes are glabrous, white, short, and narrow,
with shoulders narrow and square to oblique, and with beaks midshort
and acuminate. Awn length is 5 to 9 cm. The kernels of Homestead are
red, hard, midlong to long, ovate to elliptical, germ midsized; crease
shallow; cheeks rounded; brush medium and not collared.
Homestead is less winterhardy than 'Scout 66' and lacks the
general adaptation of Scout 66. It is superior to Scout 66 in straw
strength and resistance to stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp.
tritici Eriks, & E. Henn.) and soil-borne mosaic virus (Marmor tritici
Holmes var. Typicum McK.). It is more susceptible to wheat streak
mosaic (M. virgatum McK. var. typicum McK.) than is Scout 66, and as
susceptible to Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)]. Homestead
has very good milling and baking characteristics: above-average grain
protein content, good loaf volume, medium dough-mixing time, and good
mixing tolerance.
Homestead was named and jointly released in 1973 by the
agricultural experiment stations of Nebraska and Kansas, and ARS-USDA.

Registration of Hume Wheat (Reg. No. 448).
D. G. Wells, G. W. Buchenau, John A. Johnson, and Karl F. Finney
'HUME', Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell., CI 13526 is a hard red
winter wheat that originated in the second cycle of a program of
recurrent selection for hardiness, earliness, and resistance to stem
rust begun about 1945 by John Grafius. The original parents include
'Minter' (CI 12138), 'Nebred' (CI 10094), 'Kharkof' and 'Cheyenne.'
Grafius (private correspondence) estimated at least a 6% genetic gain
per generation of selection in his program. However, while the
selection that became Hume was not the hardiest, it did constitute an
improved genotype combining a high level of hardiness with other good
qualities. Hardiness tests were made in flats placed outside until
December. Then the flats were frozen indoors at -15 F. for 48 hours.
In 1956 V. A. Dirks made the final selection at the South Dakota
Agricultural Experiment Station at Brookings. Ninety-three acres of
Hume constituted the increase potential for release to certified seed
producers in 1965. North Dakota and Minnesota also increased Hume for
distribution. South Dakota will be responsible for maintaining
breeder seed.
Hume is similar to Nebred in milling and baking characteristics,
plant height, heading date, maturity, and hardiness. It resists
shattering. The straw of Hume is stronger and the bushel weight over
2 pounds heavier than for Nebred. Hume resists the prevalent races of
the stem rust organism, races 17, 15B-2, and 56. It is susceptible to
leaf rust, leaf blotch, and wheat streak mosaic.
It has been a top yielder in southeastern South Dakota
(Beresford, Table 1) but only a moderate yielder in tests at Highmore.
At the South Central Substation, Presho, Hume has yielded 6.6 bushels
more than the most popular variety., Nebred, over the past 5 years,
but less than 'Ottawa' (CI 12804). Ottawa has lost its resistance to
stem rust, however. In 1965, Hume ranked first in yield at Presho
because of its winter hardiness and resistance to stem rust and
generally was excellent in performance in South Dakota. Hume should
be adapted in all areas of the state where Nebred is grown. Hume
combines resistance to stem rust with the earliness, hardiness, and
quality standard established in Nebred.
Hume, widely adapted in the Northern Regional Performance Nursery
tests, has usually ranked high in the region.
Hume is bearded and brown chaffed. The spike is fusiform,
inclined, and lax. Its glumes are glabrous, long, midwide, with
shoulders that are wanting to square and narrow to mid-wide . The
beaks of the glumes are wide, acuminate and 3-7 mm long. Hume's
kernels are hard, red, long, and ovate with large germs. The crease
is mid-wide and mid-deep. The cheeks are angular to rounded. The
brush is large and mid-long.
Hume has been extensively tested for milling and baking quality
in small-scale and large-scale tests. Table 2 summarizes pertinent
data on milling and baking quality based on pilot-plant studies.

REGISTRATION OF ILRED WHEAT (Reg. No. 232)
J. A. Clark
ILRED (Ill. Turkey 10-110; C. I. No. 8219) was developed at the
Illinois Agricultural Experiment Station by L. H. Smith, as a pure-
line selection from Turkey. The selection was made at Urbana, Ill.,
in 1910. The variety has been grown commercially in Illinois since
1923. It is similar in appearance to Turkey, the suggested place in
the classification being between Turkey (Reg. No. 143) and Iowa No.
404 (Reg. No. 144). The superior character of Ilred is that it is a
high yielding pure strain of Turkey. It has been tested 8 years at
Urbana, Ill. The comparative data of Ilred and Turkey grown in plats
replicated four times during the five years, 1920 to 1924, inclusive,
are as follows:

REGISTRATION OF IOBRED WHEAT (Reg. No. 236)
J. A. Clark
IOBRED (Iowa 1949; C. I. No. 6934) was developed at the Iowa
Agricultural Experiment Station in cooperative experiments with the
Office of Cereal Crops and Diseases Bureau of Plant Industry, U. S.
Department of Agriculture. It was developed from a selection of the
Banat variety (Iowa No. 1661) made in 1915 by L. C. Burnett. It is a
bearded, brown-glumes variety of hard red winter wheat, the kernels of
which are much shorter and broader than most of the wheats of that
class. The suggested place in the scheme of classification is before
the Yaroslav variety (Reg. No. 174). The superior characters of the
Iobred variety for Iowa conditions are winter hardiness, strong straw,
and good yields. The glume color and kernel shape of this variety
facilitate identification and make it easy to keep the variety pure
and to certify seed. The annual and average plat yields at Ames
during the six years, 1920 to 1925, inclusive, in comparison with the
parent Banat and the standard Turkey and Kanred varieties, are as
follows:

REGISTRATIO OF IOTURK WHEAT (Reg. No. 266)
J. A. Clark
IOTURK (Iowa No. 1154), a selection from Turkey wheat, was
produced by the Farm Crops Section of the Iowa Agricultural Experiment
Station. The variety has been under experiment for 12 to 15 years at
Ames and was distributed for commercial distribution about 1926. It
has since replaced much of the other Turkey wheat in the state.

REGISTRATION OF IOWIN WHEAT (Reg. No. 267)
J. A. Clark
IOWIN (Iowa No. 2025, C. I. No. 10017) was produced as a pure-
line selection from Theiss wheat by the Farm Crops Section of the Iowa
Agricultural Experiment Station. The variety has been included in
plat experiments at Ames for 5 years, and 250 acres were grown to
furnish seed for its first commercial distribution in the fall of
1930. Iowin is bearded and has white glabrous glumes, the stems are
tall and fairly strong and the spikes somewhat open, and the kernels
short, red, and semi-hard to hard. The advantages of Iowin are rust
resistance and high yield. The yields from plat experiments,
furnished by L. C. Burnett, the breeder and applicant, are given in
Table 1.

Registration of Itana Wheat (Reg. No. 450).
E. R. Hehn and H. K. Klages
'ITANA' (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.), CI 12933, was
developed from a cross of Blackhull-Rex X Cheyenne. The cross was
made at the Sherman Branch Experiment Station, Moro, Oregon, in 1942.
Itana was released by the Montana Agricultural Experiment Station in
1956 and by the Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station in 1957.
Itana is resistant to the race of bunt and dwarf bunt that were
prevalent in the Pacific Northwest at the time of release. It is
susceptible to race D-3 of dwarf bunt. It is susceptible to stem
rust, leaf rust and stripe rust.
Except for damage by snow mold, winter hardiness of Itana has
been ample for dryland production in the Pacific Northwest.
In milling and baking quality, Itana is superior to Wasatch,
Cache, and Turkey. In test weight it is equal to the same varieties
or higher.
Morphological characteristics of Itana have been described as
follows: winter growth habit, midseason, midtall to tall; stems white,
midstrong; spikes awned, fusiform, middense, inclined; glumes
glabrous, brown (few brown and black), short, narrow to midwide;
shoulders midwide, square to rounded; beaks midwide, acute, 0.5 to 1.0
mm long; awns white (light brown), 2 to 8 cm long; kernels red, short,
hard, ovate; germ midsized to small; crease midwide, shallow; cheeks
rounded; brush midsized to large, midlong.
Pure seed is maintained by the Montana Agricultural Experiment
Station and the Montana Seed Growers Association.

Registration of Jeff Wheat (Reg. No. 556).
D. W. Sunderman and Bernard Bruinsma
JEFF (CI 17270) is a hard red winter wheat, which evolved from an
F4 line from the cross 'Itana'/2/'Kiowa'/PI 178383 made at the
Aberdeen branch of the Idaho Exp. Stn. in 1963. Jeff has been tested
in Idaho dwarf bunt and yield trials since 1968 and in the western
regional hard red winter wheat nursery since 1971 as Idaho Selection
0037.
Jeff is a tall variety with moderately stiff straw. Spikes of
Jeff are inclined, awned, fusiform, and middense. Glumes are
glabrous, brown, midlong, and midwide; shoulders midwide and oblique;
beaks narrow, acuminate, and 2 to 3-mm long. Kernels are hard, red,
midlong, and ovate; crease narrow to midwide and middeep; cheeks
rounded; brush large and midlong. Jeff is superior to 'Ranger' in
seedling vigor and resistance to dwarf bunt. It is similar to
'Franklin' in dwarf bunt resistance, and it is more resistant to
shattering than Franklin. Reactions of Jeff to individual dwarf bunt
races indicate that it has the Bt 9 and Bt 10 genes from resistance.
It also has resistance to the prevalent races of stripe rust.
Jeff has had the highest average grain yield and test weight
among hard, red, winter varieties grown at three Idaho locations for 3
years. Grain protein content of Jeff grown in these trials averaged
12.7%. 'Wanser' and Ranger, grown in the same trials, had grain
protein contents of 12.1 and 13.1%, respectively. Jeff has
satisfactory milling and baking characteristics.
Breeder seed of all four wheat cultivars will be maintained by
the University of Idaho at the Tetonia Branch Exp. Stn.

'KARL' (Reg. no. CV-762, PI 527480) (KS831374) is a hard red
winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS. It was
released to seed producers in 1988. Karl was selected from the cross
"Plainsman V' /3/ 'Kaw' / 'Atlas 50' /2/ 'Parker'*5 / 'Agent', made by
E.G. Heyne at Kansas State Univ. in 1977. Karl is an increase from an
F4 head row grown in Manhattan, KS, in 1981. In 1986, seed from 200
F9 rows was composited to produce breeder seed.
Karl is an awned, white-glumed, short wheat. It is equal in
height to Plainsman V, and 5 to 6 cm shorter than "Newton'. Karl is 1
d later than Plainsman V and 4 d earlier than Newton. Its
winterhardines is better than Newton and slightly less than 'Scout
66'. Stems of Karl are white, midstrong, and hollow; the flag leaf is
lax, with few distinct leaf hairs. Spikes of Karl are oblong to
fusiform and middense. Awns are white and range in length from 2 to
5.5 cm; the spike at maturity is inclined. Glumes are white, midlong,
and narrow to midwide. Shoulders are narrow and oblique from basal to
midspike, tending toward rounded and square near the top of the spike.
Beaks are narrow, acuminate, and 4 to 9 mm long. The kernel is red,
hard, midlong to long, and ovate; the germ is small to midsmall; the
crease is midwide and middeep; cheeks are rounded, and the brush is
midsized, midlong, and has no collar.
Karl was evaluated in the Kansas advanced performance tests from
1984 to 1988, in the Kansas Wheat Performance Tests from 1987 to 1988,
and in the 1987 and 1988 Southern Regional Performance nurseries.
Karl is best adapted to central and eastern Kansas. Its grain yield
and grain volume weight have been superior to the most commonly grown
cultivars in these regions, Arkan and Newton.
Hard wheat milling and bread-making qualities of Karl are
excellent. It has a 15 to 20 g kg-1 flour-extraction advantage over
currently grown hard wheats. Mixing time of Karl, as measured by the
mixograph, is _0.5 to 1.0 min longer than for 'Eagle'. it is rated
equal to Eagle in baking quality. Grain protein concentration of Karl
is 10 g kg-1 above Eagle and 20 g kg-1 above Newton.
Karl is resistant to soilborne mosaic virus and spindle streak
mosaic virus. It has effective e levels of resistance to leaf rust
(caused by Puccinia recondita Roberge ex Desmaz.), powdery mildew
(caused by Erysiphe graminis DC. f. sp. tritici Em. Marchal), septoria
leaf blotch (caused by Septoria tritici Roberge in Desmaz) and tan
spot (caused by Pyrenophora trichostoma [Fr.] Fuckel). Karl is
moderately susceptible to stem rust (caused by P graminis Pers.:
Pers.). It is susceptible to Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor Say)
and wheat streak mosaic virus.
Application for cultivar protection under the Plant Variety
Protection Act, Public Law 91-577, has been made. Breeder seed of
Karl will be maintained by the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station,
Manhattan, KS 66506.

REGISTRATION OF KARMONT WHEAT (Reg. No. 244)
J. A. Clark
KARMONT (C. I. No. 6700) was developed in the cooperative
experiments of the Office of Cereal Crops and Diseases, Bureau of
Plant Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, and the
Montana Agricultural Experiment Station at the Judith Basin
Substation, Moccasin, Mont. It is the result of head selection No. 30
made from Kharkof, C. I. 1583, in 1911, by E. L. Adams. The value of
the variety was determined by experiments conducted by Ralph W. May,
who applied for its registration. The Karmont variety is similar in
appearance to Kharkof and Turkey wheats and should follow Montana No.
36 (Reg. No. 146) in the classification. The superior characters of
Karmont are its yielding ability under Montana conditions. It has
been grown in nursery and plat experiments at the Judith Basin
Substation during 14 years, and has been grown commercially in Montana
since the fall of 1921. During the pst eight years the plat
experiments have been grown each year in four systematically
replicated plats. The data for Karmont in comparison with those for
Kharkof (C. I. No. 1583) are as follows (table transposed from
original):

Registration of Kaw Wheat (Reg. No. 411).
E. G. Heyne, C. O. Johnston, K. F. Finney, and E. D. Hansing
KAW, CI 12871, is a hard red winter wheat selection from the
cross (Early Blackhull X Tenmarq) X (Oro X Mediterranean-Hope), made
in 1941. The maternal parent was a sister selection of Wichita. The
final selection, in F6, was made in 1947 and given the number Ks
471238. It was entered in the Uniform Hard Red Winter Wheat
Performance Nursery in 1953. Kaw was released jointly by the Kansas
and Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment Stations in 1960.
Kaw has a winter habit of growth, is early and midtall. The
parts have the following features: stem-white, midstrong to weak;
spike-awned, fusiform, middense, inclined; glumes-glabrous, white,
midlong, narrow to midwide; shoulders-midwide, oblique to rounded:
beaks-midwide, acuminate, 2 to 4 mm. long; awns-white, 2 to 6 cm.
long; kernels-red, midlong, hard, ovate; germ-midsized to small;
crease-midwide, shallow; cheeks-rounded; brush-midsized, short.
Kaw is resistant to race 56 of stem rust, but not to race 15B. It
resists the races of leaf rust prevalent in Kansas at the time of
release. Kaw resists the bunt races common in Kansas. It is
susceptible to loose smut, soilborne mosaic, streak mosaic, and to
hessian fly. It is not as winter-hardy as Wichita but shatters less.
The original material released was heterogeneous for resistance
to stem rust race 56. Later, breeders seed was purified so that Kaw
now available is homogeneous for resistance to race 56 of stem rust.
Some difficulty has occurred in maintaining pure seed. The common
mixtures present have been plants that are taller and at heading stage
have a darker blue-green foliage color, plants with spikes having both
black and red glumes, and a few plants susceptible to both leaf and
stem rust. These mixtures have constituted about 0.5% of the
population.
Kaw is high in test weight and is a good quality hard wheat.
Mixing time and other physical dough properties approach those of
Cheyenne. The break baking properties of Kaw are more stable to the
adverse effects of high temperature and low humidities during the
fruiting period than most hard winter wheat varieties. It has been
evaluated for quality by Kansas State University, USDA, and by several
Baking and Milling Industry Laboratories. Data on several
characteristics of Kaw and other recommended varieties for Kansas are
given in Table 1.

Registration of Kharkov 22 MC Wheat (Reg. No. 428).
H. R. Klinck and M. N. Grant
'KHARKOV 22 MC' (Triticum aestivum L.) C.A.N. 2360, CI 6938, is a
hard red winter wheat selected at Macdonald College, Quebec, in 1912.
The selection was made from Kharkov, a variety of Russian origin
introduced into the United States in 1900. It was released for
commercial production in 1923.
Kharkov 22 MC has a winter habit of growth and is of particular
interest because of its ability to withstand severe winter conditions.
It is mid-season to late in maturity; mid-tall to tall; straw white,
medium strong; auricles red; spike mid-dense, fusiform, with white
awns ranging from 1.3 to 2.9 inches in length; glumes white, glaborous
and narrow with oblique to square shoulders; shoulders narrow to mid-
wide; beak acuminate, 4.7 mm. long; kernels red, mid-long, hard and
ovate to elliptical in shape; germ small; crease narrow to mid-wide
and shallow to mid-deep; cheeks rounded; brush mid-size and mid-long.
Kharkov 22 MC is susceptible to bunt, leaf rust and stem rust,
but resistant to post-harvest sprouting. Milling quality is fair to
good.
This variety does not yield as well as other commonly grown
varieties (Tables 1 and 2), but is superior to most other varieties in
its ability to survive winter conditions (Table 3 and 4). The latter
characteristic makes Kharkov 22 MC a useful variety for expanding the
areas of winter wheat production and as parental material in breeding
for winter hardiness. Breeder seed is maintained by the Agronomy
Department, Macdonald College, Quebec.

REGISTRATION OF KIOWA WHEAT (Reg. No. 346)
F. N. Briggs
KIOWA (CI 12133) was selected in 1942 from a cross of Chiefkan X
Oro-Tenmarq, made in 1938 at the Fort Hays Branch Experiment Station,
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, Hays, and U. S. Dept of
Agriculture. Information regarding Kiowa was furnished by A. F.
Swanson who applied for its registration. It is described as a
midseason, medium tall, strong stem winter wheat with mid-dense, awned
spike. Glumes are glabrous, white, or may be slightly brownish with a
tinge of black streak at base, mid-long and mid-wide. Beak is
acuminate and 4 to 6 mm long. Kernels are elliptical in shape.
The superior characters of Kiowa are high yield and test weight,
good straw strength; it is resistant to shattering and bunt, tolerant
to stem rust, but highly susceptible to loose smut. It is not
resistant to Hessian fly or leaf rust. Kiowa has excellent milling
and baking quality, with mixing tolerance slightly under Comanche, but
better than Pawnee.

Registration of Kirwin Wheat (Reg. No. 609).
R. W. Livers
'KIRWIN' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.),
CI 17275, KS6623, was developed cooperatively by the Kansas Agric.
Exp. Stn. and SEA-USDA. Its pedigree is 'Parker'*3 / 'Bison.'
Crosses were made at the Ft. Hays Branch Exp. Stn. beginning in 1958.
Kirwin is an F4 line after the second backcross to Parker. It is a
1964 field selection with resistance to Hessian fly (Mayetiola
destructor Say). Distributed in 1973, Kirwin is grown on a limited
acreage in central Kansas.
Kirwin is awned, matures early, and has intermediate height and
straw strength. The spikes are oblong, middense and inclined. Glumes
are white, glabrous, midwide, and midlong. The shoulders are midwide
and oblique to square. Beaks are 2 to 10 mm long. Kernels are red,
hard, midlong, ovate to elliptical; the germ is midsized; the crease
is narrow and shallow; the cheeks are rounded; and the brush is
midsized and short.
Both Kirwin and its Parker parent have high weight per bushel and
low resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm.). Both
are susceptible to stem rust (P. graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks.
and E. Henn.), to bunt (Tilletia caries (DC.) Tull.), to loose smut
(Ustilago tritici (Pers.) Rostr.), and to soil-borne and streak mosaic
viruses. Parker has multigene resistance to Hessian fly derived from
'Marquillo', Kirwin has been less resistant than Parker in some tests,
but has effective resistance to the GP race of fly in central and
western Kansas. Kirwin is 1 1/2 days later than Parker, 2 cm taller,
and is more susceptible to lodging. It is more winterhardy than
Parker, has larger seed, and shatters less. Milling and making
properties of Kirwin are satisfactory. Short mixing time and greater
loaf volume of Kirwin are both improvements over Parker. Average
yields of the two varieties in Kansas were equal during a 12-year
testing period. Kirwin's greater hardiness, larger seed, and reduced
shattering combine to provide a fly resistant wheat adapted farther
north and west of the central Kansas area where Parker has been well
accepted.
Breeder seed of Kirwin is maintained at the Ft. Hays Branch Exp.
Stn., Hays, KS.

Registration of Lancer Wheat (Reg. No. 441).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, A. F. Dreier, and P. J. Mattern
'LANCER' (Triticum aestivum L.) CI 13547, is a hard red winter
wheat developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment
Station and the Agricultural Research Service, USDA. It originated as
an F3 selection from the cross 'Turkey'-'Cheyenne' X 'Hope'-'Cheyenne'
made at Lincoln, Nebraska, in 1949. It was advanced without
reselection from observation nurseries to Nebraska Experiment Station
Preliminary yield trials in 1957. Selection 57167 (Lancer) was
immediately outstanding in western Nebraska, particularly at Imperial
in southwestern Nebraska where drought was severe. Evaluation in
Nebraska outstate tests was initiated in 1960 and in the Northern
Regional Performance Nursery in 1961. Foundation seed of Lancer was
distributed to Nebraska producers in the fall of 1963.
Lancer has spikes that are erect, bearded, mid-dense, fusiform,
and has white straw. Glumes are white in color and narrow to mid-wide
with narrow-oblique to square shoulders. Beaks are short to medium
short (2-5 mm.). The kernels of Lancer are red in color, long and
elliptical with shallow crease and rounded cheeks.
Lancer is moderately early variety, intermediate to 'Pawnee' and
'Nebred' in maturity (Table 1). It has stiff, moderately short straw
and is similar to Cheyenne in field appearance and winterhardiness.
Lancer has been resistant to stem rust in Nebraska field trials during
its period of testing. It is susceptible to the smuts, leaf rust,
streak and soil-borne mosaic, and hessian fly.
Lancers is best adapted to western Nebraska but has yielded well
in all parts of the state (see Table 2., Registration of Gage Wheat).
It produces grain with average test weight. It is recommended for
production in all areas of Nebraska except the Southeastern and South-
central cropping districts.
The quality of Lancer has been evaluated by the Regional Hard
Winter Wheat Quality Laboratory, the Nebraska Wheat Quality
Laboratory, and commercial laboratories associated with the Hard
Winter Wheat Quality Advisory Council. It mills well and, like
Nebred, produces flour with a medium-long mixing requirement and
mixing tolerance and satisfactory water absorption and loaf-volume
potentiality.
Seed classes of Lancer designated by the Nebraska Agricultural
Experiment Station are breeder, foundation, and certified. Foundation
seed will be maintained by the Nebraska Experiment Station.

Registration of Lancota Wheat (Reg. No. 621).
J. W. Schmidt, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, A. F. Dreier, and D. V.
McVey
'LANCOTA' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.), CI 17389, is a
hard red winter wheat selected in the F2 generation from the cross
'Atlas 66' / 'Comanche' /2/ 'Lancer' made in 1965 at the Nebraska
Agricultural Experiment Station. It was developed cooperatively by
the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the AR, SEA, USDA,
and was tested in 1972-75 Nebraska yield trials, the 1972-74 Southern
Regional Performance Nursery, and the 1975 Northern Regional
Performance Nursery as NE 701132.
Lancota is a medium to late maturing cultivar and similar to
Lancer in plant height. Its spike is awned, oblong to tapering, mid-
dense, and usually erect. Glumes are white to yellow, glabrous, short
to mid-long and medium wide. Beaks are moderately short and
acuminate. Awns are white and 5 to 9 cm long. Kernels are red,
medium hard, moderately long, and elliptical, with kernel weight
approaching that of 'Scout 66'. The kernels have a mid-sized brush;
they are not collared.
Lancota has a low vernalization requirement and is not as
winterhardy as Scout 66. It has excellent yield potential and
produces grain with above-average protein content. Lancota has good
milling properties; its baking characteristics are similar to those of
Lancer and include a medium dough mixing time, good mixing tolerance,
and good loaf volume potential.
Lancota has been moderately resistant to the physiological forms
of leaf rust (incited by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp.
tritici Eriks.) and stem rust (incited by Puccinia graminis Pers. f.
sp tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.) present during its testing period.
Lancota is variable for reaction to soil-borne mosaic virus and
intermediate in reaction to wheat streak mosaic virus and Septoria
leaf blotch (incited by Septoria tritici Rob. ex Desm.). It is either
susceptible to other diseases or its reaction is unknown.
Lancota, named and released jointly in 1975 by the Agricultural
Experiment Stations of Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota, and Texas and
AR, SEA, USDA is protected (Certificate 76TQ002) under the Plant
Variety Protection Act, Public Law 91-577, by the Nebraska
Agricultural experiment Station and the SEA, USDA and may be sold only
as a class of certified seed. Seed classes recognized are breeder,
foundation, registered, and certified. The Nebraska Agricultural
Experiment Station will maintain breeder seed.

Registration of Larned Wheat (Reg. No. 611).
R. W. Livers
'LARNED' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.),
CI 17650, KS70H210, was developed cooperatively by the Kansas Agric.
Exp. Stn. and SEA-USDA. Its pedigree is 'Ottawa'/5*'Scout.' Crossing
was done at the Ft. Hays Branch Exp. Stn. from 1963 through 1966 to
transfer the H3 gene for resistance to Hessian fly (Mayetiola
destructor Say) from Ottawa into Scout background. Larned is a 1969
field selection with fly resistance, an F4 line after the fourth
backcross to Scout. It was distributed to Kansas growers in 1976.
Larned is awned, intermediate in height and moderately early.
Spikes are oblong to fusiform; they are middense and inclined to
erect. Glumes are white, glabrous, long, and narrow. Shoulders are
narrow, usually wanting on basal glumes, approaching square at
midspike and ranging to apiculate at the top of the spike. Beaks are
narrow, acuminate, and 2 to 7 mm long. Awns are white and 3 to 11 cm
long. The kernel is red, hard, midlong, and elliptical to oval; the
germ is small; the crease is narrow and deep/ the cheeks are rounded;
and the brush is midsized and midlong.
Larned is equal to its recurrent Scout parent in winterhardiness,
maturity, weight per bushel, and resistance to shattering. Both have
field resistance to stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici
Eriks. and E. Henn.), and to loose smut (Ustilago tritici (Pers.)
Rostr.). Both are susceptible to leaf rust (P. recondita Rob. ex
Desm.), to bunt (Tilletia caries (DC.) Tul.), and to soilborne mosaic
virus. Larned is 2 cm shorter and lodges less than Scout. Larned is
superior to Scout in low but useful resistance to streak mosaic virus.
Both varieties have good milling and baking properties. Comparisons
from 1972 to 1976 show them equal in flour protein (11.6%). Mixing
times averaged 3.1 min. for Larned, 3.3 min for Scout. Larned average
1% less flour extraction, and 4% more loaf volume than Scout. Yield
performance of Larned is based on 3 years in the Southern Regional
Performance nursery and 5 years of testing at 12 Kansas locations.
Larned has consistently outyielded Scout, averaging 7% more in Kansas.
Larned is the first variety available for western Kansas that provides
both Hessian fly resistance and top yield performance.
Breeder seed of Larned is maintained at the Ft. Hays Branch Exp.
Stn., Hays, KS.

Registraton of Lindon Wheat (Reg. No. 579).
J. R. Welsh, G. Ellis, R. Normann, G. Hinze, and H. Mann.
'LINDON', a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em
Thell.) CI 17440, was named and released for both irrigated and
dryland production by Colorado State Univ. in 1975. The cultivar is
from the cross II 21183/C0652363/2/Lancer/KS62136. The original cross
of II 21183/CO652363 was made in 1967. II 21183 is a semidwarf spring
wheat from the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center
(CIMMYT). The cross of this F1 with Lancer/KS62136 as made in 1968.
The cultivar originated from an individual F2 plant selection followed
by head selection in the F4. No further reselection occurred. Lindon
was identified as selection CO725055 after the F4. It has been in
statewide yield trials since 1973 and was entered in the Southern
Regional Performance Nursery in 1974 and 1975. In an average of all
Colorado trials, Lindon has equaled 'Centurk' in yield and has
outyielded 'Scout 66' by 5%. It has a superior test weight of 1.29-
1.93 kg/hl (1.0-1.5 lbs/bushel) above either check cultivar.
Lindon is midseason in maturity. It is semidwarf in stature,
averaging 10 cm shorter than Scout 66 over a wide range of production
conditions. The stem is white, midstrong, and hollow. The spike is
awned, fusiform, lax, middense, inclined, and shattering resistant.
The glumes are white, midlong, narrow, and midwide with oblique to
rounded shoulders. The beak is midwide and 4 to 8 mm long. The awns
are white and average 70 mm long. The kernel is red, midlong, hard
and ovate with a midsized germ; crease wide, shallow, and rounded;
brush midsized and short. Lindon has seedling resistance to race 56,
15, 15B2, 151, and 17 of stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp.
tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.) but is susceptible to prevalent races of
leaf rust (P. rubigo-vera (DC.) Wint. f. sp. tribici (Eriks.) Carl.].
It has excellent milling and baking properties. Foundation seed of
Lindon was released to growers in eastern Colorado in the fall of
1975. Colorado State Univ. Exp. Stn. will be responsible for
maintenance of breeder seed.

Registration of Manning Wheat (Reg. No. 644).
Wade G. Dewey
'MANNING,' CI17846, a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.
em Thell.), was developed by the Utah Agric. Exp. Stn. It originated
from the cross 'Delmar'/PI178383/2/'Columbia'/4/Delmar/3/UT175-
53/2/'Norin' 10/'Brevor.' UT 175-53 is a bunt (Tilletia spp.)
resistant breeding line derived from the cross
'Hussar'/'Turkey'/2/'Ridit'/3/'Oro'/Ridit. The final cross in the
sequence was made in 1967 and the single F6 plant that became the
cultivar Manning was selected in 1973. During its advanced testing
period it was identified at UT89099. Foundation seed was released to
seed growers in the fall of 1979.
Manning is medium-short in stature, averaging 12 to 15 cm shorter
than 'Hansel' and 'Jeff' and 10 to 12 cm shorter than 'Cache' and
'Bridger' under typical dryland conditions in Utah. It is medium-
early in maturity, heading about 5 days earlier than Hansel. Spikes
are bronze, awned, oblong to fusiform, middense, and tend to be
inclined at maturity. Awns are 5 to 7 cm long and somewhat flared.
Glumes are glabrous, midlong, midwide, with generally square
shoulders. Beaks are mid-short and acuminate. The kernel is hard,
red, elliptical to ovate, with a midsize germ, middeep crease, and
rounded cheeks. The brush is short to medium and noncollared.
Manning has an excellent yield record in our 1977-1979 intrastate
tests as well as in the 1978 and 1979 Western Regional Hard Red Winter
Wheat nurseries. In 15 location-year comparisons with the standard
cultivars presently being grown in Utah, Manning has averaged 10%
above the best-yielding cultivars. Its yield advantage is most
evident on our better drylands or under moderate levels of irrigation
where lodging is often a problem with the standard tall cultivars.
Manning has about the same high level of resistance to dwarf bunt
(caused by Tilletia controversa Kuhn) as Hansel. It derives this
resistance primarily from its PI178383 and Ridit parentage. It also
has shown a moderate degree of tolerance to snowmold (caused by a
number of Fusarium and Typhula species). From limited observations on
its reaction to leaf rust (incited by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm
f. sp. tritici), and to powdery mildew (caused by Erysiphe graminis
DC. f. sp. tritici Em Marchal), Manning appears to be susceptible to
these two diseases.
Milling and baking characteristics of Manning are good and
similar to Hansel. It has strong dough mixing properties.
Breeder seed will be maintained by the Utah State Agric Exp. Stn.
at Logan, Utah. Utah State University does not plan to apply for a U.
S. Plant Variety Protection certificate.

REGISTRATION FOR MARMIN WHEAT (Reg. No. 328)
J. A. Clark
MARMIN (Minn. 2614, C. I. 11502) was developed in cooperative
experiments of the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station and the
Division of Cereal Crops and Diseases, Bureau of Plant Industry, U. S.
Dept. of Agriculture. It is the result of a Minturki (winter) X
Marquis (spring) cross made at the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment
Station in 1922.
Marmin is a winter wheat with glabrous, white glumes, awned
spike, and semihard to hard red kernels. It is equal to Minturki in
winterhardiness and disease resistance. It was developed and
distributed chiefly for improved quality. At University Farm and
Waseca, for the 6-year period, 1935-1940, it yielded slightly less
than Minturki, but was superior to Minturki with respect to weight per
bushel, hardness of grain, and crumb color of the loaf of bread. Also
the carotenoid pigment content of the grain was less than that for
Minturki. In each of these characteristics it was equal to or better
than Minturki in every year in which they were determined.
Details are presented in Table 1. The variety was named and
distributed to farmers for fall seeding in 1940. There were about
1,300 bushels available and all of this was seeded. For further
information on the distribution of Marmin wheat, see the Minnesota
Seed Grower for August, 1940.

Registration of Maverick Wheat (Reg. No. 657).
Irvin M. Atkins
'MAVERICK' is a semi-dwarf, hard red winter wheat (Triticum
aestivum L. em. Thell.). It wa selected in 1970 from several thousand
plant progenies from the putative cross of 'Sturdy' and 'Tascosa'
cultivars. The selection, later named Maverick, was grown as pedigree
number 71H447 in plant rows at Hereford, Texas, in 1971 and in
preliminary and replicated nursery trials at Hereford, Denton,
McGregor, and San Antonio, Texas, from 1972-79. Purification and
increase of breeder seed was started in 1976, with limited release to
the public in 1977. The acreage of Maverick has increased rapidly and
the cultivar is now grown on several thousand acres in Texas.
Maverick is similar in many respects to the Sturdy parent, which
is the dominant cultivar in Central Texas area. Maverick differs from
Sturdy in having white glumes (the glumes of Sturdy are white with
black stripes); it usually matures a day later, and may be 2 to 5 cm
taller and the kernels are smaller. Plants of Maverick average 70 to
80 cm in height, about 20 cm shorter than the Tascosa parent. The
spike remains erect at maturity, tapers slightly and often sets one or
more seed in the central floret. The glumes are white and glabrous,
the beaks of moderate length. Maverick has grain slightly lower than
Sturdy in kernel weight. The grain mills well and produces flour of
high gluten strength, similar to Sturdy.
Maverick wheat has resistance to many races of leaf rust (incited
by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f.) and a general tolerance to
others that reduce injury. It is susceptible to stem rust (incited by
Puccinia graminis var tritici, Ercks. S. E. Henn.), to powdery mildew
(incited by Erysiphe graminis D.C. f. sp. tritici, E. Henn.) and to
septoria (incited by Septoria tritici Rob.).
Breeder seed is maintained by Harpool Seeds Incorporated, Denton,
TX 76201 and McGregor Milling and Grain Co., McGregor, TX. The
cultivar is sold only by these companies as a class of certified seed,
under Plant Protection Certificate No. 7700108.

Registration of McCall Wheat (Reg. No. 518).
Walter L. Nelson and Masami Nagamitsu
'McCALL' (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell), CI13842, is a hard red
winter wheat released in 1965 by Washington Agricultural Experiment
Station. It was selected in 1958 from a 'Burt'/'Itana' cross made in
1952 at the Dry Land Research Unit. It was tested as experimental
line Burt/Itana, 125 in state and regional tests. McCall is
recommended for the low-rainfall area of Eastern Washington.
McCall has the following morphological characteristics; winter
growth habit, midseason short to midtall; stem white, very strong;
spike awned, oblong, dense, erect to inclined; glumes glabrous, white,
midlong; shoulders midwide to narrow, oblique to square; beaks
midwide, acuminate, 1 to 3 mm long; awns white, 1 to 5 cm long;
kernels red, midlong, hard ovate; germ small; crease midwide, middeep;
cheeks rounded; brush midsized, short to midlong.
McCall is susceptible to leaf and stem rust. It is susceptible
to stripe rust in the seedling stage, but is tolerant to strip rust in
the mature plant stage. It is resistant to most races of common bunt
and to flag smut. It is susceptible to race D-3 of dwarf bunt.
McCall recovers from medium levels of snow mold infection, but is
killed by heavy infestations.
McCall has excellent emergence from deep seeding and germinates
under low soil moisture conditions. It has good winterhardiness, and
high yield in both early and late seedings. McCall has quick recovery
in the spring and threshes readily and will shatter under severe wind
conditions. McCall has good milling and baking characteristics,
comparing favorably with 'Cheyenne'. It has high test weight with
dark red, hard kernels.
Mccall was named in honor of Dr. M. A. McCall, the first
superintendent of the Dry Land Research Unit. Washington State Crop
Improvement Association will maintain breeder seed of McCall.

REGISTRATION OF MICHIKOF WHEAT (Reg. No. 233)
J. A. Allan
MICHIKOF (Purdue No. 14C-5-3-5; C. I. No. 6990) was developed by
the Indiana Agricultural Experiment Station in the Department of Soils
and Crops of Purdue University. It was developed from a cross made in
1912 between Michigan Amber (female) and Malakof (male). The
selection from which the variety resulted was made in 1915. It is a
tip-awned or awnletted variety of hard red winter wheat. Its
suggested place in the present classification is after Alton
(Registration No. 55). The superior characters of the Michikof
variety are winter hardiness and a hard, glutinous kernel of high test
weight, producing flour of superior quality for break-making purposes.
It has been grown commercially in Indiana for several years and has
been tested for a ten-year period on the Soils and Crops farm and at
outlying experiment stations in Indiana. The following are average
yields secured in experiments at Huntington, Lafayette and Wanatah,
during he four-year period from 1922 to 1925, inclusive.

J. A. Clark
MINARD (Minn. No. 2199; C. I. No. 6690) was developed by the
Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station at University Farm, St.
Paul, Minn. It is the result of a cross made in 1902 between Turkey
and an unknown variety, the selection from which the variety was
developed being made in 1915. Minard is similar to Turkey, except
that it produces exceptionally hard and corneous kernels under
Minnesota conditions. The suggested place int he present
classification is after Iowa No. 1945 (Reg. No. 145). Because of its
good kernel characters and yielding ability, Minard is being used at
University Farm, St. Paul, Minn., in breeding winter-hardy wheats of
better quality. Minard has been grown at University Farm and at the
substations in Minnesota since 1915. The yields obtained in
comparison with those of Minturki, the best winter variety for
Minnesota, are as follows:

REGISTRATION OF MINTER WHEAT (Reg. No. 365)
E. G. Heyne
MINTER, CI 12138, is a hard red winter wheat developed by the
Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station, Crops Research Division,
ARS, USDA, and the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station.
Minturki was crossed with Hope in 1931 and backcrossed to Minturki in
1932. The selection resulting in Minter (Minn. No. 2713) was made in
1937. It was released to Minnesota and South Dakota growers in the
fall of 1948. E. R. Ausemus made the application for registration.
Minter has higher yield and test weight than Minturki and Marmin
and is equal to these two varieties in winterhardiness. Minter has
moderate resistance to stem rust, leaf rust, and bunt. It is not
resistant to race 15B of stem rust nor does it give as resistant a
response to leaf rust now (1958) as it did when released in 1948.
Data on some of these characteristics are given in table 3. The
estimated acreage of Minter grown in 1954, primarily in South Dakota
and Minnesota, was 101,600 acres (11).

Minter is a hardy winter wheat, midseason in maturity, and
midtall. The stems are white and midstrong. The spikes are awned and
fusiform. The glumes are smooth, white in color, narrow and midlong.
The shoulders are narrow to wanting and the beaks narrow, short, and
acuminate. The kernels are red (2). Minter has satisfactory milling
and baking characteristics. It is superior to Minturki and Marmin in
that it has higher water absorption and a lower carotenoid content,
and consequently, a whiter crumb color.

CI 17896. TX71D3876 was selected as an F6 plant at Texas A&M Univ.,
College Station. The pedigree is TX391-56-D1-24 (Sturdy sib.)'3'
TX55C907/'Bison'/2/'Caddo'/4/'Frontana'/'Westar'. Selection TX55C907
had the pedigree Triticum dicoccoides/ Aegilops speltoides,
amphidiploid/2*'Austin'/3/'Supremo'. Mit as distributed to certified
seed growers for foundation seed increase in 1980.
Mit average 86 cm in height, which was 5 cm taller than 'Sturdy'
and 13 cm shorter than 'Milam' in irrigated trials at Uvalde. Mit was
10 cm taller than Sturdy and 8 cm shorter than Milam in dryland trials
at Beeville. Mit has averaged 11 days earlier in heading than Sturdy
and 8 days earlier than 'Nadadores 63' in South Texas. Mit has a ow
vernalization requirement, but displays a winter growth habit. Mit is
not winterhardy and should not be grown north of Austin, Texas. The
spike is awned, fusiform, dense and nods at maturity. Glumes are
medium in width and length with an elevated shoulder. The beak is
acuminate and 3 to 5 mm long. The kernels average 7 mm in length and
are ovate with a medium brush which is not collared. The crease is
narrow, rounded and shallow.
Mit has an outstanding yield record in South Texas. During 1976
to 1980, Mit average 39% higher grain yield than Sturdy, 66% better
than Milam and 15% better than 'Coker 68-15', a soft red winter wheat,
in irrigated trials at Uvalde. Under dryland conditions at Beeville,
Mit averaged 57% more grain yield than Milam and 114% more than
Sturdy. The test weight of Mit was slightly greater than of Sturdy.
Mit's forage yield is equally outstanding, and from 1977 to 1980, it
averaged 11% more forage yield than commercial cultivars commonly
grown in South Texas.
Mit has a high level of resistance to leaf rust (incited by
Puccinia recondita Rob. ex. Dem. f. sp. tritici). The genes
conditioning this resistance have not been identified. Reactions to
stem rust (incited by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Erichs &
E. Henn.) and powdery mildew (incited by Erysiphe graminis DC. Ex.
Merat f. sp. tritici) have been moderately resistant. Quality tests
run on Mit indicate that it is comparable in milling and baking
quality to Study in the years tested.
Breeder seed will be maintained by the Texas Agric. Exp. Stn.
Foundation seed will be available from the Foundation Seed Service,
Texas A&M Univ., College Station, TX 77843.

REGISTRATION OF MOSIDA WHEAT (Reg. No. 247)
J. A. Clark
MOSIDA (Idaho No. 156; C. I. No. 6688) was developed by the
University of Idaho from a cross made at the Colorado Agricultural
Experiment Station, between Fultzo-Mediterranean (female) and Turkey
(male) in 1916. The crossed material was taken to the Idaho station
by G. S. Ray. The Mosida variety resulted from a selection made at
the Idaho station in 1918. H. W. Holbert, of the Agronomy Department
of the University of Idaho, applied for registration. Mosida is an
awnletted or tip-awned variety of hard red winter wheat and should
follow Huston (Reg. No. 54) in the classification. The superior
characters of Mosida are better than average bunt resistance, good
strength of straw, and high yield. It is adapted to the cut=over
sections of northern Idaho. The Mosida variety has been distributed
for commercial growing in Idaho by the Idaho station. The annual and
average yields in field plat experiment (duplicated 1/40th-acre plats)
during the five-year period, 1920 to 1924, inclusive, together with
those of Triplet, the best yielding wheat at the Idaho station, are as
follows:

REGISTRATION OF NEBRED WHEAT (Reg. No. 321)
J. A. Clark
NEBRED (Nebraska No. 1063, C. I. 10094) was developed in
cooperative experiments of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment
Station and the Division of Cereal Crops and Diseases, Bureau of Plant
Industry, U. S. Dept. of Agriculture. The original selection was made
in 1924 by T. A. Kiesselbach and Arthur Anderson from a plat of Turkey
(S. Dak. 144, C. I. 3684) at Lincoln. The seed for the plat had been
inoculated with Tilletia levis, and an epidemic of stem rust was
created in the spring. Heads were selected from plants free of bunt
and relatively free of rust. In succeeding years these selections
were inoculated with bunt and only the resistant ones were continued.
The testing work became cooperative in 1930, C. A. Suneson and K. S.
Quisenberry successively representing the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture.
Dr. T. A. Kiesselbach applied for registration.
Nebred is a winter wheat of the Turkey type. The spike is awned
with glabrous glumes and has hard red kernels. It is rather winter
hardy and midseason as to maturity.
In Table 1 yield data are presented comparing Nebred, Cheyenne,
and Turkey at Lincoln. It will be seen that Nebred has outyielded
Turkey but is not quite equal to Cheyenne. In the cooperative
regional hard red winter wheat improvement program Nebred has been
tested in the central district or stations in Kansas, Nebraska, and
Colorado. In these tests it has been one of the highest yielding
varieties at all stations.

Nebred was selected chiefly for resistance to bunt. In Table 2
data are presented which show that the variety is more resistant to
forms of smut in the Great Plains than either Oro or Minturki, two
commercial varieties having considerable resistance. While Nebred is
not resistant to all forms of bunt, it is resistant to those forms now
known to be present in Nebraska.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nebred is not considered resistant to stem rust, but it seems to
be able to produce a fairly good crop of grain in the presence of
rust. This is probably due in part to some degree of earliness and a
tendency to become infected with rust a little later than some other
varieties. The variety is susceptible to leaf rust.
The milling quality of Nebred is very good, and the flour gives a
good loaf of bread, although there is a slight tendency for a yellow
color to be present in some years.
The variety was named in 1938 and released to farmers for fall
seeding. About 1,100 bushels were available and all of this was
seeded.

Registration of Neeley Wheat (Reg. No. 666).
D. W. Sunderman and Brendan O'Connell
'NEELEY' hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), CI 17860,
was selected as F4 line from the cross of 'Heglar' /3/ 'Norin 10' /
'Staring' /2/ 2*'Cheyenne' made at the Univ. of Idaho Aberdeen
Research and Extension center in 1971 and was tested regionally as
ID0158 before being named.
The cross was made to combine the good milling and baking
characteristics and above average protein content of Heglar with the
semidwarf height, high yield and good agronomic characteristics of
ID5006 (Norin 10 / Staring /2/ 2*Cheyenne). Neeley was tested in
state nonirrigated yield trials and under maximum irrigation at
Aberdeen from 1975 to 1980 and in the Western Regional Hard Red Winter
Wheat Nursery in 1977 to 1980.
Neeley is an awned white-glumed cultivar with moderately stiff
straw and intermediate maturity. The height of Neeley has varied from
87 to 120 cm with an average height of 110 cm when it is grown under
irrigation. In the nonirrigated trials it has averaged about 13 cm
shorter than 'Jeff.' Neeley has good resistance to lodging when grown
on dryland but is moderately susceptible to lodging when grown under
irrigation. Spikes of Neeley are fusiform, middense and erect to
inclined. AT maturity, glumes are glabrous, white, midlong, and
midwide with elevated shoulders. Beaks are midwide, acuminate, and 6
to 14 mm long. the awns are white and 4 to 9 cm long. The kernels
are red, hard midlong and ovate with midsized germs, rounded cheeks
and a narrow middeep crease. Neeley has been resistant to stripe rust
(caused by Puccinia striiformis West), moderately resistant o powdery
mildew (caused by Erysiphe graminis DC. f. sp. tritici E. Marchal) and
susceptible to leaf rust (caused by Tilletia controversa Kuhn).
Neeley allows producers the option of growing a hard red winter
wheat under irrigation which yields competitively with currently grown
soft white winter wheats. In 5 years of testing under irrigation at
Aberdeen, the average yields of the two hard red cultivars, 'Wanser'
and Neeley, and the soft white wheat, 'Nugaines', were 5616, 7055, and
6894 Kg/ha, respectively. Tests weights of the respective cultivars
growning the same trials were 80.679.8, and 79.2 kg/hl. When grown
under nonirrigated conditions, yields of Neeley have varied from 97 to
145% of Jeff, depending upon the location of the trials.
The milling and baking quality of Neeley has been satisfactory;
however, the grain protein content of Neeley grown under irrigation
has been somewhat low.
Neeley was named and released by ARS-USDA and the Idaho Agric.
Exp. Stn. in 1980. Breeder seed will be maintained by the Univ. of
Idaho Aberdeen Research and Extension center, P.O. Box AA, Aberdeen,

Registration of Nell Wheat (Reg. No. 669).
D. G. Wells, J. J. Bonnemann, W. S. Gardner, K. F. Finney, H. A.
Geise, and C. E. Stymiest
'NELL', CI17803, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.
em. Thell.) (Reg. No. 669) developed by the South Dakota Agricultural
Experiment Station. It was derived from the cross 'Scout' sel /
'Capitan' obtained as a bulk hybrid from Dr. John Schmidt, University
of Nebraska. During testing Nell was designated SD73177.
In the main area of winter wheat production in South Dakota
(Presho), Nell out-yielded 'Scout 66' and 'Centurk' by 2 and 30%,
respectively, over 3 years. In the northern range of this area if
exceeded Scout 66 and Centurk in yield by 15 and 34% (Wall) and 23 and
22% (Redfield), respectively, over 2 years. Nell was similar in
winterhardiness to these two cultivars and, also, was 2 to 3 cm
shorter in height than either one. Its heading date was similar to
the heading date of Scout 66. For test weight Nell equalled Scout 66.
Its mixing time was between Centurk and Scout 66.
Nell resists the prevalent races of the organism causing stem
rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.) and
possesses genes Sr 7B and Sr 17 along with a possible unknown gene.
It is susceptible to the leaf rust organism (Puccinia recondita Rob.
ex Desm. f. sp. tritici), the wheat streak mosaic virus, and the
Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor Say.).
Its spikes are awned, white glumed, mid-long, mid-dense, fusiform
and nearly erect. The glumes are glabrous, narrow to mid-wide with
narrow, oblique shoulders. The beaks of the glumes are acuminate and
2 to 4 mm long. The kernels are hard, red, mid-long, and ovate; the
germ is mid-sized, the cheeks are mid-deep and mid-wide; the brush is
mid-sized and mid-long.
Nell was named and released by the South Dakota Agricultural
Experiment Station in 1981. Breeder seed will be maintained by the
Foundation Seed Stocks Div., South Dakota State Univ., Brookings, SD
57007. Nell is not patented.

Registration of Newton Wheat (Reg. No. 601).
E. G. Heyne and C. L. Niblett
'NEWTON' CI 17715, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. em Thell.) selected from the cross 'Pitic 62'/2/ II-53-526 ('Chris'
sib)/ 'Sonora 64'/3/ Sonora 64/ 'Klein Rendidor'/4/ 'Scout' made by
Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. in 1967. F2 seed was produced in
Colorado from spring seeding. The F3 and F4 generations were grown as
thinly seeded bulks in Kansas at Hays in 1969 and at Manhattan and
Hutchinson in 1970. About 6,400 F4 plant progeny lines were grown in
the F5 generation in 1971. Newton is an increase of a single F4 plant
and was assigned the Kansas selection number KS73112 in 1973. It was
tested in the Kansas Intra State Nursery in 1974-1977 and in the SRPN
in 1976 and 1977. Its yield performance has been above average.
The important characteristics of Newton are its resistance to
soil-borne wheat mosaic virus and relatively short stiff straw. In
addition to these two characteristics, Newton is moderately resistant
to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici) and
stem rust (P. graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks) races currently
common in Kansas. It is susceptible to Hessian fly (Mayetiola
destructor Say), bunt (Tilletia carries (DC.) Tul.) mildew (Erysiphe
graminis tritici E. Marchal), and Septoria spp.
Quality of the protein is excellent and equal to that of 'Eagle'.
Newton has a medium mixing time slightly longer than Scout, and
average protein content, and above average loaf volume potential.
Newton is about equal to 'Triumph' in winterhardiness and has
midseason maturity. It has short stiff straw but not as short as most
one-gene stature wheats. The culm, glumes, and awns are white; the
peduncle often is wavy; the spike is awned, varying from 3 to 7 cm in
length, with two to three more spikelets than most hard red winter
wheats, and often has a third fertile floret. The shoulders are
nearly quare and narrow. The beaks vary from 2 to 6 mm long. The
kernels are red, hard, midlong, and elliptical to ovate; germ is
small. The crease is straight; a straight line crease is often
present on top of the kernel. The brush is midsized.
Variety protection has been applied for under the Plant Variety
Protection Act, Public Law 91-577. Foundation seed will be maintained
by the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, Manhattan, KS 66506.

REGISTRATION OF NEWTURK WHEAT (Reg. No. 245)
J. A. Clark
NEWTURK (C. I. No. 6935) was developed in the cooperative
experiments of the Office of Cereal Crops and Diseases, Bureau of
Plant Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, and the
Oregon and Montana agricultural experiment stations. It is the result
of a hybrid between Newton, C. I. 5300 (female) and Turkey, C. I. 1558
(male) made in 1916 at the Sherman County Branch Station, Moro, Oreg.
The F2 and F3 generations of this cross were grown at Chico, Calif.,
where several hundred awnless elections were made by J. A. Clark.
Some of these were sent to the Judith Basin Substation, Moccasin,
Mont., for seeding in the fall of 1920. One of these selections known
as 166 B1-6, proved promising and was named Newturk. The Newturk is a
tip awned or awnletted strain of hard red winter wheat and should
follow Alton (Reg. No. 55) in the classification. Its superior
characters are high yield, resistance to shattering, and good quality
for milling and bread-making. Seed of the Newturk variety was
increased for commercial growing at the Moccasin station in 1925.
Ralph W. May applied for its registration. The annual and average
yields of Newturk, in nursery and plat experiments at Moccasin in
comparison with comparable yields of Kharkof (164a), used as a parent
in another cross, are as follows:

Registration of Nicoma Wheat (Reg. No. 531).
E. L. Smith, L. H. Edwards, H. Pass, D. C. Abbott, and H. C. Young, Jr
'NICOMA' a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em.
Thell), CI 13874, OK 627514, was developed by the Oklahoma
Agricultural Experiment Station and released in 1971. Nicoma
originated as an F5 head selection from a cross between 'Triumph' and
CI 12406. The cross was made in 1954 to combine the early maturity
and yield stability of Triumph with the strong gluten properties of CI
12406. Triumph is a widely grown early-maturing variety and a mellow-
gluten type. The other parent, CI 12406, is an unreleased Kansas
experimental strain derived from the cross 'Marquillo' / 'Oro' /2/
'Oro' / 'Tenmarq.' CI 12406 matures 7 to 10 days later than Triumph
and has strong gluten properties.
Nicoma has a winter growth habit and early maturity, and is
midtall in plant height. The stem is white and midstrong; the spike
is awned, fusiform to oblong, middense, and inclined; the glumes are
glabrous, white (occasionally with black markings), midlong, and
narrow; the shoulders are narrow and oblique to square (mostly
square); the beaks are midwide, acuminate, and vary from 1 to 3 mm in
length; the awns are white and 3 to 7 cm in length; the kernels are
red, midlong, hard, and ovate; the germ is midsized; the crease is
midwide and shallow; the cheeks are rounded; and the brush is midsized
and midlong.
Nicoma has dark, hard kernels. It is similar to Triumph in
maturity, plant height, test weight, and winterhardiness, but has
stronger straw than Triumph. Nicoma apparently carries the "Triumph
Type' resistance to loose smut. Although susceptible to leaf rust in
the seedling stage, Nicoma has some degree of adult plant resistance.
In field tests, it has consistently averaged 15% less leaf rust than
Triumph. During 5 years (1967 to 71) of testing in Oklahoma, Nicoma
exceeded Triumph in grain yield by an average of 12% and was slightly
better than 'Scout 66' and 'Danne.' Nicoma is markedly superior to
Triumph in milling and baking quality. It has a long mixing time and
a high mixing tolerance of the dough, and hence, should be useful in
blending with mellow-gluten wheats in the production of bread flour.
The replacement of part of the Triumph acreage by Nicoma would tend to
improve the overall quality of the wheat crop in Oklahoma.
Breeder seed, which initially resulted from a composite of 300
head rows, will be maintained by the Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment
Station.
Variety protection has been applied for under the Plant Variety
Protection Act, Public Law 91-577. If granted, Nicoma may be sold
only as a class of certified seed and must be labeled as a protected
variety.

Registration of Norkan Wheat (Reg. No. 725).
T. J. Martin, R. G. Sears, J. H. Hatchett, D. L. Wetzel, M. D.
Shogren, M. D. Witt, and J. R. Lawless
'NORKAN' (Reg. no. 725, PI 506345, KS82H4) is a hard red winter
wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) developed cooperatively by the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS. It was jointly
released to seed producers in 1986 by the developing institutions and
the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station. Norkan was selected
from the cross 'Plainsman V'/3/2*(KS76H3705)'Larned'/'Eagle'/2/'Sage'
at the Fort Hays Branch Agricultural Experiment Station in the winter
of 1976-1977. Norkan is an increase in an F5 plant row gown at Hays,
KS in 1981.
Norkan is medium to medium-late maturing and heads about 1 d
later than 'Newton'. Norkan has semidwarf stature and is slightly
shorter than Newton, with a coleoptile length equal to that of Newton.
Winter survival of Norkan has equaled 'Scout 66' in the 1983 to 1985
Uniform Winterhardiness Nurseries. Leaves of Norkan are distinctly
pubescent on the adaxial surface. Leaf hairs are rather sparse and
are up to 0.5 mm long. Norkan's spikes are oblong to fusiform and
middense. Glumes are white, midlong, and narrow. Shoulders are
narrow and wanting in basal glumes, approach square at midspike, and
range to apiculate at the top of the spike. Beaks are narrow,
acuminate, and 1 to 4 mm long. The kernel is red, hard, midlong, and
elliptical to ovate; the germ is mall; the crease is midwide and
middeep; the cheeks are angular; and the brush is midsized, midlong,
and has not collar.
Norkan was evaluated in Kansas advanced performance tests from
1983 to 1986, in the Kansas Wheat Variety Performance Test in 1986,
and in the 1985 and 1986 Southern Regional Performance Nurseries, and
appears to be best adapted to production in northern Kansas. its
yield and grain volume weight have been superior to that of Newton,
Larned, and 'Arkan', the most commonly grown cultivars in northern
Kansas.
Hard wheat milling and bread making qualities of Norkan are
excellent and very similar to those of Eagle. Norkan has a slightly
lower loaf volume than Eagle, but has a better crumb color. The grain
and flour protein contents of Norkan are equal to those of Eagle and 1
percentage point higher than those of Newton.
Norkan has resistance to wheat soilborne mosaic virus, leaf rust
(caused by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. f. sp. tritici Eriks),
stem rust (caused by P. graminis Pers. f. sp tritici Eriks and E.
Henn.), and biotypes GP, A, and C of Hessian fly (Mayetiola destructor
Say), which is conditioned by the H3 gene derived from Larned. It is
susceptible to wheat streak mosaic virus.
Application for cultivar protection under the Plant Variety
Protection Act, Public Law 91-577 has been made. Norkan breeder's
seed will be maintained at the Fort Hays Branch Experiment Station,
Hays, KS 67601.

Registration of Norstar Wheat (Reg. No. 626).
M. N. Grant
'NORSTAR' wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.) CI 17735, is a
hard red winter cultivar developed at the Agriculture Canada Res.
Stn., Lethbridge, Alberta. It received License No. 1771 in Canada on
27 July 1977.
Norstar originated from the cross 'Winalta'/'Alabaskaya' made at
Lethbridge in 1959. From an F5 bulk hybrid population, 544 plants
were selected in 1966, and one line was designated as 7759-19 in 1968.
The line was tested in Canada in the Cooperative Winter Wheat tests
from 1971 to 1975, and was included in the Northern Regional
Performance Nursery in 1977 and 1978. Breeder seed was developed by
bulking the progeny from 400 uniform head rows selected in 1974.
In tests covering 21 station-years from 1971 to 1975, Norstar
averaged 11% higher in yield than Winalta, and 6% above 'Sundance.'
Norstar is superior in winterhardiness to Winalta and Sundance, and at
least equal to 'Kharkov 22 MC.' Agronomically, Norstar resembles
Sundance more than Winalta. In baking quality, Norstar has medium to
strong flour properties, similar to Winalta. It is satisfactory for
loaf volume but slightly low in farinograph absorption. This cultivar
is adapted to the winter wheat growing areas of Alberta and
Saskatchewan, and to those areas of the northern United States where a
high level of winterhardiness is required. It is susceptible to most
of the common cereal diseases.
Norstar is late maturing, mid-tall, resistant to shattering, and
moderately resistant to lodging. The auricles tend to be red or
purple. The spikes are mid-dense, tapering, and inclined, with long,
spreading, white awns. The glumes are glabrous, white, with narrow
acuminate beaks, 2 to 8 mm long; shoulders narrow, oblique to wanting.
The kernels are light red in color, mid-size to small, narrow to mid-
wide, mid-long, and elliptical to oval.
Breeder seed will be maintained by the Research Station,
Lethbridge, Alberta.

Registration of Norwin Wheat (Reg No. 713).
G.A. Taylor, G.H. Spitler, C.F. McGuire, J.W. Bergman, A.L. Dubbs, G.
Carlson, G.F. Stallknecht, and V.R. Stewart
'NORWIN', PI 491533, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum
aestivum L.) (Reg. no. 713) developed cooperatively by the Montana
Agricultural Experiment Station and USDA-ARS and approved for release
in December 1984. Norwin was tested as MT 7877 in Montana trials from
1980 through 1983 and in regional trials in 1982 and 1983. It was
selected as a semidwarf, stiff-strawed, shatter resistant F3-derived
F4 line at Montana State University, Bozeman. The pedigree is
'Froid'/'Winoka'/2/MT6928/'Trader'. Winoka and Trader are tall, stem
rust (caused by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. and
Henn.) resistant winter wheat. Froid and Winoka are more winter hardy
than Trader and MT 6928. Selection MT 6928 is TX 65A1508/'Westmont',
a semidwarf, shatter resistant line with good yielding ability in low
winter stress environments.
Norwin is the first semidwarf hard red winter wheat cultivar
adapted to Montana that combines high winterhardiness, high yield
potential, and acceptable milling and baking quality.
The winterhardiness of Norwin is at least equal to 'Winalta',
'Roughrider', and Froid, three winter-hardy wheat cultivars currently
recommended in Montana. Norwin's seedling characteristics of very
narrow, dark green leaves and prostrate growth habit are associated
with winterhardiness in wheat.
The average yield of Norwin in 1980 through 1982 Montana trials
was 10, 15, and 27% higher than Winalta, Roughrider, and Froid,
respectively. Norwin is about 27 cm shorter than the above three
cultivars, and has a heading date similar to them. Norwin is lodging
and shatter resistant. The milling and baking quality of Norwin is
satisfactory. Under high yield conditions, adequate soil fertility is
necessary for maintenance of satisfactory grain and flour protein
percentage. In 1980 through 1982 Montana trials, the flour yields of
Norwin averaged 3% more than Winalta and 4% more than Roughrider and
Froid.
The spike is awned, middense, fusiform, and upright. The glumes
are white and glabrous, shoulders are midwide and oblique, and beaks
are acute. The kernels are hard red, midlong, and elongate with small
embryos, narrow creases, round to angular cheeks, and prominent
brushes. Norwin has shown field resistance to prevalent races of stem
rust, stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis West.) and tan spot
[caused by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis (Died.) Drechs]. It is
susceptible to bacterial leaf spot (caused by Pseudomonas syringae Van
Hall).
Foundation seed of Norwin was distributed to seed growers in the
fall of 1985. Breeder and foundation seed will be maintained by the
Montana Agricultural Experiment Station, Bozeman, MT 59717.

Registration of Omaha Wheat (Reg. No. 416).
V. A. Johnson and J. W. Schmidt
OMAHA, CI 13015, is a hard red winter wheat developed
cooperatively by the Nebraska and Kansas Agricultural Experiment
Stations and the Crops Research Division, Agricultural Research
Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. It was approved for
distribution and certification in Nebraska in 1960. Detailed
information on Omaha was published in 1961.
Omaha was selected from a cross Pawnee X Nebred made at Kansas
State University in 1942. An F3 bulk lot of seed was propagated
without selection by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
until 1948, when head selections were made. Selection 502845 (CI
14015) during 4 years of observation at Alliance, Nebr., exhibited
outstanding winterhardiness and withstood severe wheat streak mosaic
and hessian fly outbreaks. It was entered in Nebraska yield trials in
1954 and in regional tests the following year.
The spike of Omaha is awned, fusiform, middense, and erect.
Glumes are narrow to midwide, glabrous, and white with narrow oblique
to square shoulders. The beaks are short, ranging from 1 to 5 mm. in
length. Length of awns varies from 3 to 8 cm. Omaha kernels are red,
short, hard, and ovate with a midsized germ. The kernel crease is
midwide and middeep, and the cheeks are rounded.
Superior characteristics of Omaha are good yield and test weight,
early maturity, resistance to shattering, excellent winter-hardiness,
and resistance to bunt, soilborne mosaic, and loose smut. It shows
moderate resistance to hessian fly in western Nebraska.
Omaha possesses overall quality characteristics similar to those
of Pawnee. It exhibits consistent but modest superiority to Pawnee in
protein content, water absorption, and mixing time.
Omaha has been equal to Pawnee and consistently higher than
Nebred in yield in Nebraska tests (Table 1). The grain of Omaha has
averaged about 1 pound per bushel heavier than Pawnee and
approximately 2 pounds heavier than Nebred (Tables 1 and 2). Omaha is
like Pawnee and Comanche in maturity but produces shorter straw and
lodges slightly less than these varieties.

REGISTRATION OF ORO WHEAT (Reg. No. 259)
J. A. Clark
ORO (C. I. No. 8220) was developed at the Sherman County Branch
Station, Moro, Oregon, as a pure-line selection and was first called
Turkey 889-5. The selection was made at the Moro Station in 1921.
Seed of the variety was first distributed for commercial growing in
1927. D. E. Stephens, Superintendent of the Moro Station, applied for
the registration of Oro.
It has been in the regular replicated nursery experiments at Moro
for six years and in plat experiments for three years. It also has
been tested in a number of cooperative farm nurseries in Oregon from
three to five years, and in plat experiments at several experiment
stations in other states in 1928.
Oro differs from Turkey in having a shorter and blockier spike,
and taller and stiffer straw. Oro also is resistant to bunt or
stinking smut, is winterhardy, and of high quality for breadmaking.
The comparative yield data of Oro and Kharkof winter wheats are shown
in Table 1.

Registration of Osage Wheat (Reg. No. 570).
E. L. Smith, L. H. Edwards, H. Pass, H. C. Young, Jr., and D. C.
Abbott
'OSAGE,' CI 17292, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. em Thell.) which is an F2 derived line selected from a
5*'Scout'/'Agent' backcross population. It as tested in state and
regional trials as Oklahoma selection OK 696731. Osage was released
jointly by the Oklahoma and Texas Agric. Exp. Stns. in 1974. Seeds
from 5*Scout/Agent F1 plants were received from the Colorado Agric.
Exp. Stn. in the fall of 1966. F2 plants were screened for leaf rust
(Puccinia recondita) reaction in the greenhouse at Stillwater, Okla.,
and F3 progenies of resistant plants were retested to identify lines
homozygous for the Agent source of leaf rust resistance. Selection for
agronomic traits was made among lines grown in observation nurseries
in 1968 and 1969 and several lines, including OK696731, were advanced
to replicated performance trials in 1970. OK696731 was first grown in
the Southern Regional Performance Nursery in 1972.
Osage is a hard red winter wheat. It is midtall in plant height
and medium to medium late in maturity. It matures bout 2 days later
than 'Scout 66.' The stem is white and midstrong; the spike is awned,
fusiform, middense, and inclined; the glumes are glabrous, white,
midlong, and narrow; the shoulders are narrow and oblique; the beaks
are narrow, acuminate, and vary from 1.5 to 4.0 mm in length; the awns
are white and 2.5 to 7.5 cm in length; the kernels are red, midlong,
hard, and ovate; the germ is mall to midsized; the crease is straight,
midwide, and middeep; the cheeks are rounded to angular and the brush
is midsized to large, and midlong.
Osage is similar to Scout 66 in plant height, straw strength,
test weight, milling, and baking characteristics. It is resistant to
all known North American races of the leaf rust fungus except a
culture of race 2 designated as 2A Ag (H. C. Young, Jr., unpublished
data). It has good resistance to stem rust (Puccinia graminis
tritici) and powdery mildew (Microsphaera diffusa) and appears to be
intermediate in reaction to wheat streak mosaic virus and bunt
(Tilletia caries). It is susceptible to soil-borne mosaic virus and
Septoria leaf blotch. The grain yield of Osage exceeded that of Scout
66 by an average of 14% in Oklahoma tests during the past 4 years
(1972-72). It compares favorably with other cultivars in terms of
grazing value as winter pasture.
Variety protection has been applied for under the Plant Variety
Protection Act, Public Law 91-577. If granted, Osage may be sold only
as a class of certified seed and must be labeled as a protected
variety. Breeder seed will be maintained by the Oklahoma Agric. Exp.
Stn., Stillwater, OK 74074.

Registration of Ottawa Wheat (Reg. No. 412).
E. G. Heyne, E. T. Jones, and C. O. Johnston
OTTAWA, CI 12804, is a hard red winter wheat selection from the
cross (Mediterranean-Hope X Pawnee) X Oro-Illinois No. 1 (W38) X
Comanche) made in 1943. The final selection, KS 49454, was made in
1948 in the F5 generation. This line segregated for reaction to race
56 of stem rust. About 50 stem rust resistant progenies were bulked
in 1957 for increase of wheat became Ottawa. It was distributed to
Kansas farmers in the fall of 1960. In 1962 it was grown commercially
in Kansas, Nebraska, and Illinois.
Ottawa has a winter habit of growth, is early to midseason and
short. Its parts have the following characteristics; stem-white,
strong; spike-awned, fusiform, middense, inclined; glumes-glabrous,
brown, midlong, narrow to midwide; shoulders-midwide, rounded to
oblique; beaks-narrow, acuminate, 3 to 8 mm. long; awns-white (light
brown), 3 to 6 cm. long; kernels-red, midlong, hard, ovate; germ-
midsized; crease-midwide, shallow; cheeks-rounded; brush-midsized,
midlong.
Ottawa is resistant to race 56 of stem rust, but not to 15B. It
resists, in the adult stage, the races of leaf rust prevalent in
Kansas at the time it was released. It resists soilborne mosaic and
is particularly adapted for growing in the mosaic-infested areas of
eastern Kansas. Ottawa is moderately susceptible to loose smut and
bunt, and susceptible to streak mosaic. It resists hessian fly
attack. The source of hessian fly resistance (W38 in the pedigree) is
different from that found in Pawnee and Ponca. Ottawa has nearly the
same degree of winterhardiness as Pawnee but it shatters less.
During the period Ottawa has been tested the yields have been
good, especially when lodging, stem and leaf rust, or soilborne mosaic
have been present. In 1962, in north central Kansas and south central
Nebraska Ottawa was outstanding in the presence of hessian fly and
stem rust infection. The test weight is average and the grain
bleaches readily in the field. However, it is superior to Pawnee is
both test weight and bleaching. Performance data are given in Table
1.
The quality characteristics have been evaluated by Kansas State
University, USDA, and Baking and Milling Industry Laboratories.
Ottawa is considered only a fairly quality hard wheat, similar to
Wichita. It produces a good leaf of bread. However, its mixing time
is shorter than the strong gluten varieties Bison and Ponca, but
somewhat longer than Pawnee.
The original seed of Ottawa contained some mixtures that have not
been eliminated by extensive roguing. Less than .05% of the spikes
have white glumes instead of brown. There also is a trace of plants
susceptible to stem rust race 56, leaf rust, hessian fly and soilborne
mosaic. None is present in sufficient amounts to affect the
performance.

Registration of Palo Duro Wheat (Reg. No. 482).
J. A. Wilson and Peter Salm
'PALO DURO', a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em.
Thell.), CI 14584, was developed by DeKalb AgResearch, Inc. and
released in 1969. It originated as an F4 head row selection from the
backcross: 4*'Tascosa'/'Norin' derivative. This variety is the result
of a program designed to transfer semidwarf genes from Japanese stocks
into well adapted, high quality hard red winter wheats. The male
parent, introduced by DeKalb for breeding purposes, is a semi-dwarf,
poor quality, nominal yield, winter hardy Norin derivative that is
believed to contain 50% hard red winter germplasm.
The distinguishing characteristics of Palo Duro are given in the
following: plant winter habit, medium early, short to semidwarf; stem
white, strong; spike awned, oblong to fusiform, middense, erect to
inclined; glumes glabrous, brown, midlong, midwide; shoulders wide,
square; beaks midwide, acuminate, 3 to 6 mm. long; awns light brown, 2
to 7 cm. long; kernels red, midlong, hard, ovate; germ midsized;
creased midwide, shallow; cheeks rounded; brush midsized short.
Palo Duro is resistant to soil-borne mosaic. It is susceptible
to leaf rust but is slow-rusting. Although susceptible to mildew, it
has a slower build-up of this disease than some hard red winter
varieties. It is susceptible to stem rust and bunt, but may be
moderately resistant to loose smut since no loose smut infection has
been detected under natural field conditions.
The straw of Palo Duro is short and of good quality but not equal
to Satanta and Chanute. The leaves maintain an erect position until
heading. The variety has great capacity for tillering in wide row
plantings. It has a high yield potential under above average
fertility and moisture. It is 6 inches shorter and 3 days earlier
than Tascosa.
Palo Duro's primary area of adaptation is in the High Plains of
Texas. It is similar to Tascosa in winter hardiness. It is an
outstanding dual purpose forage-grain type in its area of adaptation.
The grain and flour quality are excellent in meeting hard red
winter wheat standards. The grain is hard, has high test weight and
produces a high yield of flour with low ash. The four has strong
gluten and high water absorption. Loaf volume and texture are
excellent.
DeKalb AgResearch, Inc. will be the source of registered seed.
Only registered seed can be used in the production of certified seed.

Registration of Parker Wheat (Reg. No. 463).
E. G. Heyne and Reginald H. Painter
'PARKER,' Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell., CI 13285, is a hard
red winter wheat originated in Kansas from a series of crosses begun
in 1920 to develop an adapted early maturing wheat. Parker was
selected from the cross 'Quivira' 3X 'Kanred' X 'Hard Federation' 2X
'Prelude' X Kanred 4X 'Kawvale' X 'Marquillo' 2X Kawvale X 'Tenmarq.'
Kanred, a hard red winter wheat, was crossed with Prelude and Hard
Federation spring wheats in 1920. About 6 years later selections of
each of these crosses were crossed to combine the leaf rust resistance
of Kanred X Hard Federation with the desirable grain characters of
Prelude X Kanred. A sister selection of the Prelude X Kanred line
used in this cross was later named Quivira (Reg. No. 273) in 1931 but
not released because it produced yellow flour. However, Quivira was
crossed to a selection from Kanred X Hard Federation 2X Prelude X
Kanred cross in 1931. It was referred to by John H. Parker as the
early X early X early cross. A very early hard red winter wheat
selection similar to Quivira, but earlier was selected from this
cross. Its yield potential was not satisfactory and the selection, KS
373963, was crossed with a selection from Kawvale X Marquillo 2X
Kawvale X Tenmarq, CI 12331 (a sister of 'Ponca,' Reg. No. 372) in
1947. The selection resulting in Parker was made in 1953 and released
to farmers in Kansas and Missouri in the fall of 1966. It was named
to honor Dr. John H. Parker, former wheat breeder at Kansas State
University, 1917 to 1939. The Agronomy Department at Kansas State
University will maintain foundation seed of Parker.
Parker has a winter growth habit; matures early; is short to
midtall, white, strong stem; the spike is awned, fusiform, middense,
inclined; the glumes are glabrous, white, midlong, midwide; the
shoulders are midwide, rounded to square; the beaks are midwide,
acute, vary in length from 2 to 5 mm; awns are white, 3 to 8 cm long;
kernels are red, hard, midlong, midwide, ovate, smaller than most hard
red winter wheat; the germ is midsize; the crease is midwide, middeep;
the cheeks are rounded to angular; and the brush is missized and
midlong.
The important characteristics of Parker are early maturity for a
hard red winter wheat (but not so early as Triumph); short stiff
straw; and resistance to Hessian fly and leaf rust. On the average it
has yielded as well as Triumph but not more than recommended varieties
in Kansas. Test weight is above average but the kernels are small and
under certain conditions become fairly thin. The kernels generally
are dark hard and vitreous. It has an unusual growth habit in that
the stems tend to develop horizontally before they become erect so
Parker has a scattered spiked distribution instead of distinct rows.
Its Hessian fly resistance is derived from Marquillo and possibly
from Kawvale. The resistance provides field protection from all known
races of flies including the race which attacks 'Ottawa' and which is
increasing in areas east of Kansas. Both Parker and Ottawa are
resistant to all Hessian fly populations now found in Kansas.
Parker has moderate resistance in the adult stage to many races
of leaf rust but under severe infections many necrotic areas appear on
its leaves. In the seedling stage it resists race 9 and 15, with zero
and X responses, respectively. Parker is moderately susceptible to
bunt and loose smut and susceptible to wheat streak mosaic virus,
soilborne mosaic virus, and stem rust.
Parker's dough mixing time is longer than 'Triumph's' and is
classed as medium to long; its tolerance to mixing is good. The loaf
volume potential is below average but pilot milling and baking tests
indicate it is acceptable for pan bread and continuous mixing
processes of bread making.

Registration of Parker 76 Wheat (Reg. No. 587).
E. G. Heyne
'PARKER 76', CI 17685, is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum
aestivum L. em. Thell.) selected from the cross 'Parker'*5/'Agent'.
It was developed cooperatively and jointly released by the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station and ARS, USDA in 1976.
F2 seed of Parker"4/Agent was received from the Colorado
Agricultural Experiment Station in the fall of 1966. The F2 plants
were tested for seedling reaction to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita
Rob. ex. Desn. f. sp tritici) races attacking genes LR3 and LR10.
Several of the resistant F2 plants were backcrossed to Parker in 1967.
The F1 and F3 generations of the cross Parker*5/Agent were grown in
the greenhouse in 1967 to 1968, and F2 plant progenies in the field in
1969-71. Parker 76 is an increase of a single head selected in the F5
generation in 1971 and was assigned the selection number KS74124. It
was tested in the 1975 and 1976 Kansas Intrastate Nursery where it and
Parker performed similarly.
Parker 76 retains the major leaf rust resistance of both parents
(LR10 and LR24); the stem rust (P. graminis Pers. f. sp tritici Eriks.
and Henn.) resistance of Agent (SR24); and the Hessian fly (Mayetiola
destructor Say) resistance of Parker (Marquillo source). It is
susceptible to bunt [Tilletis caries (DC.) Tul.], loose smut [Ustilago
tritici (Pers.) Rostr.], soilborne wheat mosaic virus, and wheat
streak mosaic virus.
Quality is similar to Parker's with a medium mixing time, good
mixing tolerance, and a below average loaf volume potential.
Parker 76 has a winter growth habit; mid-season maturity, a short
to mid-tall, white, strong stem; the spike is awned, fusiform, mid-
dense, and inclined; the glumes are glabrous, white, mid-long, and
mid-wide; the shoulders are mid-wide and generally square; the beaks
vary from 3 to 7 mm long; awns are white, 4 to 8 cm long; and kernels
are red, hard, and smaller than most hard red winter wheat kernels.
The important characteristics of Parker 76 are its mid-season
maturity, strong straw, high test weight, and seedling or fall
resistance to leaf rust and Hessian fly, which allows early seeding by
farmers desiring early wheat pasture.
Foundation seed will be maintained by the Kansas Agricultural
Experiment Station, Manhattan, KS 66506.

REGISTRATION OF PAWNEE WHEAT (Reg. No. 330)
J. A. Clark
PAWNEE (Nebr. No. 1086, C. I. 11669) was developed in cooperative
experiments of the Nebraska and Kansas agricultural experiment
stations and the Division of Cereal Crops and Diseases, Bureau of
Plant Industry. It is the result of a Kawvale X Tenmarq cross made at
the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, Manhattan, Kans., in
1928. The F1, F2, and F3 generations of the cross were grown at
Manhattan, and in the fall of 1931, 52 F3 plant selections were sent
to the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station where they were grown,
studied, re-selected, and the best strains advanced to yield tests.
Because of outstanding performance in Nebraska the selection now known
as Pawnee was entered in cooperative nursery yield test through the
Southern Great Plains in 1935. It also has been tested in plot
experiments at Lincoln, Nebr., since 1936. Application for
registration was made by the Department of Agronomy, Nebraska
Agricultural Experiment Station.
Pawnee is a winter wheat with glabrous, white glumes, awned
spike, and hard red kernels. It is earlier than either of its
parents, carries moderate resistance to bunt, is resistant to Hessian
fly, in the hard winter wheat region, is highly resistant to loose
smut, has some resistance to leaf rust, and is either slightly
resistant to or able to escape severe stem-rust damage. The test
weight per bushel is heavier than Turkey, but the grain is inclined to
be somewhat lighter in color. The milling and baking characteristics
indicate that, while Pawnee is not outstanding for quality, it is
nearly equal to Turkey. The variety is slightly less winter hardy
than Turkey or Kharkof, has a tendency to shatter, but in yield tests
over a wide area has been consistently high in both nursery and plots.
Yield data at Lincoln, Nebr., are presented in Table 1.
The variety has been tested thoroughly in the cooperative winter
wheat improvement project in both nursery and plots throughout the
central and southern Great Plains. Based on these tests, Pawnee
should be of most value to Nebraska and Kansas, since it has been most
outstanding in these states, although it also has been done in
experiments in Oklahoma and Texas. It was released for distribution
in the fall of 1942.

Registration of Payne Wheat (Reg. No. 642).
E. L. Smith, E. E. Sebesta, H. C. Young, Jr., H. Pass, and D. C.
Abbott
'PAYNE,' CI 17717, is a semidwarf hard red winter wheat (Triticum
aestivum L. em Thell.) developed cooperatively by the Oklahoma Agric
Exp. Stn. and AR-SEA-USDA. It was first distributed to growers in
1977.
The cultivar is from the cross 'Triumph 64'/'Teewon Sib'/2/
'Sturdy.' Teewon Sib is an alien translocation line involving an
Agropyron elongatum chromosome which was developed at Stillwater,
Okla. from the cross 'Wichita 2*/'TAP48,' x-rayed. TAP48 is a leaf
rust resistant alien substitution line derived from the W. J. Sando
germplasm collection. Teewon Sib carries the Lr24 gene for leaf rust
resistance. A leaf rust resistant F4 line from the cross Triumph
64/Teewon Sib (OK66C3174) was crossed with Sturdy in 1967. Payne is a
composite of 36 lines selected in the F6 generation from an F2 family
derived from this cross.
Payne was tested in the Southern Regional Performance Nursery as
OK711092A in 1976 and 1977. It was tested in Oklahoma Trials in 1974-
1977. In 24 tests during this 4-year period, average grain yields for
Payne, 'Tam W-101,' 'Danne,' and 'Caprock' were respectively, 3222,
3074, 2838, and 2717 kg/ha. Payne has narrow leaves and stiff straw.
It is similar to Sturdy in height and lodging resistance. It is
classified as medium early in maturity, averaging 2 days later in
heading than Triumph 64; however, it is somewhat variable for this
trait. In certain environments it may head as much as 5 days later
than Triumph 64. It is resistant to a broad spectrum of leaf rust
biotypes (incited by Puccinia recondita Rob. ex Desm. F. sp. tritici
Erik.). It is susceptible to powdery mildew (incited by Erysiphe
graminis DC. ex Merat F. sp. tritici em Marchal), greenbugs
(Schizaphis graminum Rondanai), and wheat-soil borne mosaic virus.
The spike is awned, fusiform to oblong, and middense, awns are
white and 4 to 8 cm long; glumes are glabrous, white, long, and
narrow; the shoulders are narrow and elevated; beaks are narrow,
accuminate, and vary from 2 to 5 mm in length; the kernels are red,
midlong, hard, and elliptical with a tendency to be rather slender in
certain environmental conditions. The germ is midsized; the crease is
narrow and shallow; cheeks are rounded; and the brush is midsized and
midlong. The test weight of Payne is slightly lower than that of
Triumph 64. Payne has good milling and baking properties, being
intermediate between Triumph 64 and Sturdy in overall dough mixing
characteristics.
Breeder seed of Payne will be maintained by the Oklahoma Agric.
Exp. Stn. Foundation seed will be available from the Oklahoma
Foundation Seed Stocks, Inc., Agronomy Dept., Oklahoma State Univ.,
Stillwater, OK 74078.
