In 2001–2003, cooperative testing Snowhite475 hard white spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yielded grain in the range of the checks and was 3.4 and 3.3 d earlier maturing than AC Vista and AC Crystal, respectively. Snowhite475 had heavier test weight than AC Vista and larger seed size than AC Crystal and AC2000. Snowhite475 had higher protein content than the checks except 5701PR. It yielded more flour and had higher Agtron flour colour values than AC Crystal and AC Vista. Snowhite475 had intermediate kernel hardness, combined with yellow alkaline and white salted noodle colour and textural attributes better than AC Crystal, AC2000 and Snowbird.

Snowhite476 hard white spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the first Canadian wheat cultivar to deploy the gene Bt8, which confers resistance to prevalent races of common bunt [Tilletia laevis Kuhn in Rabenh. and T. caries (DC.) Tul. & C. Tul.]. The productivity traits of Snowhite476 were intermediate to the check cultivars. Snowhite476 had intermediate kernel hardness combined with yellow alkaline and white salted noodle colour and textural attributes comparable to AC Vista.

Biggar red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) combines high grain yield potential with semidwarf stature and wide adaptation. Biggar has improved end-use suitability relative to HY320 such as harder kernels, better flour milling properties, greater water absorption, and stronger gluten properties. It received registration No. 3089 and is eligible for grades of Canada Prairie Spring (red). Key words: Triticum aestivum, wheat (spring), high yield, cultivar description

HY355, white spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) combines high grain yield, normal height and photoperiod insensitivity. HY355 is heterogeneous for kernel hardness with 55% of the breeder lines rated hard and 45% rated soft. HY355 is the first registered wheat cultivar eligible for grades of Canada Prairie Spring (white). It received a 2-yr interim registration on 6 May 1988.Key words: Wheat (spring), cultivar description

Sadash is a soft white spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) that meets the end-use quality specifications of the Canada Western Soft White Spring class. Sadash is well-adapted to the wheat-growing regions of southern Alberta and southern Saskatchewan. Based on data from the Western Soft White Spring Wheat Cooperative Registration Test from 2003 to 2005, Sadash exhibited high grain yield, mid-season maturity, semi-dwarf stature with very strong straw, and good resistance to shattering. Sadash expressed resistance to the prevalent races of stem rust and powdery mildew, intermediate resistance to loose smut, moderate susceptibility to leaf rust and common bunt, and susceptibility to Fusarium head blight. Based on end-use quality analysis performed at the Grain Research Laboratory of the Canadian Grain Commission, Sadash had improved test weight over the check cultivars AC Reed and AC Phil and similar milling and baking performance.Key words: Triticum aestivum L., cultivar description, wheat (soft white spring), grain yield, quality, disease resistance

Kernel hardness, measured as grinding time, of seed from plant-rows extracted from the spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) parents of a previous study, showed that Cal 3, thought to have had medium-hard kernels, was in fact a mixture of soft and hard plants plus a few intermediates. This explains unexpected results. Parents Cal 9, Cal 25 and Cal 13 were each homogeneous for plants with soft, hard and very hard kernels, respectively.Key words: Wheat, Triticum aestivum L., medium-hard kernels, grinding time, genetics

Glenavon hard red extra strong spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is adapted to the Canadian prairies. It combines 2 to 6% higher grain yield with improved test weight compared to AC Corinne, Glenlea and Wildcat. It is resistant to moderately resistant to prevalent races of leaf and stem rust, resistant to loose smut, and of intermediate resistance to common bunt. Glenavon is eligible for all grades of the Canada Western Extra Strong wheat class.

Kenyon hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) possesses excellent resistance to leaf rust and stem rust. Kenyon was developed using the backcross breeding method, resulting in the recovery of the maturity and wide adaptation of its recurrent parent Neepawa. Kenyon was developed at the University of Saskatchewan. Key words: Cultivar description, leaf rust, Triticum aestivum L., spring wheat

Lillian, hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), exhibited reduced cutting by the wheat stem sawfly (Cephus cinctus Nort.) and is adapted to the Canadian prairies. Lillian produced significantly more grain yield than AC Abbey and Neepawa and its grain yield and protein concentration were similar to AC Barrie. It matured significantly earlier than Superb and Laura, and had improved resistance to leaf rust and leaf spotting diseases compared to AC Abbey. Lillian is eligible for all grades of the Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat class. Key words: Triticum aestivum L., cultivar description, grain yield and protein, resistance wheat stem sawfly, leaf and stem rust
