Amigo, brown condiment mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.] had, on average over 30 locations, the same grain yield as Common Brown in Co-op mustard tests 2004-2006 and was well adapted to the mustard-growing areas of the Canadian prairies. Amigo had the same maturity and plant height as Common Brown. Amigo had 3.3% lower fixed oil content and 2.0% greater seed protein content, highly significant improvements in a brown mustard cultivar. Seed weight of Amigo was similar to that of Common Brown. Amigo had very high allyl isothiocyanate content of 13.15 mg g-1 seed compared with Common Brown at 9.35 mg g-1 seed, levels of allyl isothiocyanate typically found in oriental mustard. The allyl isothiocyanate content of AC Vulcan oriental mustard was 12.96 mg g-1 seed in Co-op Mustard Tests at the same locations and years, not statistically different from Amigo. The high allyl isothiocyanate content was incorporated from AC Vulcan into Amigo, through cross breeding and pedigree selection as was the resistance to white rust race 2a. The strategy to transfer disease resistance and seed quality from oriental mustard to brown mustard was successful.Key words: Brassica juncea (L.)

Oriental Mustard

AC Vulcan oriental condiment mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.] was developed from landraces of oriental mustard grown at Lethbridge, AB, in the 1960s. Lethbridge 22A registered in 1974 was the first true yellow breeding oriental mustard cultivar, followed by Domo in 1977, from which Cutlass was selected. AC Vulcan is a single plant selection from Cutlass. Data on the cultivar Forge (not a check cultivar) are provided for comparison because Forge was the predominant cultivar of oriental mustard in western Canada at the time when Cutlass and AC Vulcan were developed. Forge was developed by Mr. John Hemingway of Colman's Food, Norwich, UK. AC Vulcan yielded 3.0% less grain than the check cultivar Cutlass, on average, over 81 station years in 9 yr of condiment Co-op tests 1999–2007, and was well adapted to the mustard-growing areas of the Canadian prairies. AC Vulcan was one day later in maturity than Cutlass and one day earlier than Forge. It was similar in height to Cutlass. It had 0.5% lower fixed oil than Cutlass and 0.3% greater protein content. Forge had very low fixed oil content at 38.9%. AC Vulcan had increased seed weight (2.82 g per 1000 seed) compared with Cutlass (2.73 g per 1000 seed). Forge had low seed weight (2.49 g) per 1000 seed. AC Vulcan had 12.04 mg g seed-1 of allyl glucosinolate; 0.96 mg g seed-1 greater than Cutlass. Green seed counts varied from 0.65% for Forge to 0.84% for AC Vulcan, statistically not different from each other; this was reflected in seed chlorophyll contents. AC Vulcan and Cutlass were resistant to white rust [Albugo candida (Pers.) Kuntze] race 2a, but highly susceptible to race 2v. Forge was highly susceptible to both white rust races. All three oriental mustard cultivars were highly resistant to blackleg disease [Leptosphaeria maculans (Desm.) Ces. et de Not.]. Major goals in oriental mustard breeding are further reductions in fixed oil content and increases in grain yield. Key words: Brassica juncea (L.)

Brown condiment mustard (Common Brown) has about 10% lower grain yield than oriental condiment mustard (yellow seeded), which both belong to the same species [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.]. Yield improvements in brown condiment mustard are therefore of great importance. The Saskatoon Research Centre of AAFC initiated a condiment brown mustard improvement program in 1996 applying pedigree selection of single plants from the condiment brown mustard cultivar Blaze, which resulted in the selection and registration of the cultivar Centennial Brown. Centennial Brown yielded 3.2% more grain than the landrace Common Brown, on average over 81 location years in 9 yr of condiment mustard Co-op tests (1999–2007) and was well adapted to the mustard-growing areas of the Canadian prairies. Support for registration was based on 6 yr of Co-op tests. Centennial Brown had the same maturity (91 d) and was 5 cm taller (116 cm) than Common Brown. It had 1.5% lower fixed oil (36.6%) and 1.2% greater protein content (30.0%) compared with Common Brown. It had 0.4 g heavier seed (2.96 g 1000 seed-1) than Common Brown. Centennial Brown had 0.9 mg g seed-1 greater allyl glucosinolate content than Common Brown (9.15 mg g seed-1). Green seed counts were low in Centennial Brown (0.64%) compared with Common Brown (0.79%). This was confirmed in chlorophyll content measurements, 4.76 mg kg-1 for Centennial Brown and 5.24 mg kg-1 for Common Brown. Centennial Brown was resistant to blackleg disease [Leptosphaeria maculans (Desm.) Ces. et de Not.] and highly susceptible to the B. juncea races of white rust [Albugo candida (Pers.) Kuntze], equal to Common Brown. Centennial Brown will quickly replace Common Brown in the market place because of its increased grain yield and much superior seed quality.

AAC Brown 120 is a double-haploid (DH) brown mustard (Brassica juncea) variety. It was produced using a microspore culture from F1 hybrid plants resulting from a cross between the elite brown mustard DH line B474DH100 and the elite oriental mustard DH line O60DH151. AAC Brown 120 has significantly higher (12%) yield than the check variety Centennial Brown. It is resistant to white rust races 2a and 2v, whereas Centennial Brown is susceptible to races 2a and 2v. AAC Brown 120 is well adapted to all mustard-growing areas of western Canada.

Can. J. Plant Sci. 91: 889–896. Increased demand for biodiesel feedstock has encouraged greater napus canola (Brassica napus L.) production, but there may be a need for greater production of other oilseed crops for this purpose. A multi-site field study was conducted to determine the oil yield potential of various crops relative to that of napus canola in the semi-arid, short-season environment of the Canadian prairies. Oilseed crops evaluated included rapa canola (Brassica rapa L.), juncea canola (Brassica juncea L.), Ethiopian mustard (Brassica carinata L.), oriental mustard (Brassica juncea L.), yellow mustard (Sinapis alba L.), camelina (Camelina sativa L.), flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), and soybean [Glycine max (L.) Max.]. Crop emergence and growth were generally good for all crops, but soybean did not fully mature at some locations. The number of site-years (out of a total of 9) that crops attained similar or greater yields compared to napus canola were camelina (6), oriental mustard (5), juncea canola (3), flax (3), soybean (3), rapa canola (2), yellow mustard (2), and Ethiopian mustard (1). The ranking of seed oil concentration was napus canola=rapa canola= juncea canola=flax>camelina=oriental mustard>Ethiopian mustard>yellow mustard>soybean. Considering yield and oil concentration, the alternative oilseed crops exhibiting the most potential for biodiesel feedstock were camelina, flax, rapa canola and oriental mustard. Oils of all crops were easily converted to biodiesel and quality analyses indicated that all crops would be suitable for biodiesel feedstock with the addition of antioxidants that are routinely utilized in biodiesel fuels.

Acanto is the first zero erucic acid oriental condiment mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.]. It has the same grain yield, plant height, seed protein content, seed weight, allyl glucosinolate content, and seed chlorophyll content as the check cultivar Cutlass. Both cultivars are highly resistant to blackleg disease caused by Leptosphaeria maculans (Desm.) Ces et de Not., but are susceptible to white rust race 2v caused by Albugo candida (Pers.) Kuntze. Acanto is more susceptible to white rust race 2a than is Cutlass. Acanto matures 2 d later than Cutlass, has a 2.9% lower seed oil (fixed oil) content and its seed colour is a darker yellow. Acanto was well adapted to the mustard growing areas of the Canadian prairies.Key words: Brassica juncea (L.) Czern., cultivar description, zero erucic acid oil
