Preferential grazing by rodents on an experimental line of hard red winter wheat, WT80 (Triticum aestivum L.) was observed in a variety × fertilizer field experiment that also included the cvs. Winalta, Sundance, and Kharkov 22MC. Plots that received NP fertilizers were more intensively grazed than others. The rodents were tentatively identified as white-tailed jackrabbits (Lepus townsendi campanius Hollister).

CDC Buteo is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar that is eligible for grades of the Canada Western Red Winter Wheat class. It is an intermediate height cultivar with moderate stem and leaf rust resistance and good winter hardiness and grain yield potential. It is adapted to the western Canadian prairies where its agronomic and disease package combined with an excellent grain quality profile has resulted in wide commercial acceptance in Saskatchewan. CDC Buteo was made the wheat quality standard for the Central Winter Wheat Co-operative Registration Trials in 2008.Key words: Triticum aestivum L., cultivar description, wheat (winter)

Fundulea is a winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.) with bread-making quality and high grain yield. It is moderately susceptible to powdery mildew and septoria leaf and glume blotch and is suited for production in areas of Atlantic Canada where winter survival is not a problem.

Vuka is a utility grade, medium-hard, red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.) with high yield and medium winterhardiness in Atlantic Canada, but primarily adapted to the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. Breeder seed will be maintained at Hohenheim University, West Germany. Seed release of Vuka in Canada is through Minas Seed Co-operative Ltd., Nova Scotia.Key words: Wheat (winter), cultivar description

AAC Network is a semi-dwarf hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar that is well adapted across western Canada and eligible for grades of Canada Western Red Winter (CWRW) wheat. It was developed using wheat × maize pollen doubled haploid methodology. AAC Network was evaluated in the Western Canadian Winter Wheat Cooperative registration trials relative to CDC Buteo, Emerson, Moats, and AAC Elevate for 4 yr (2016–2019). Based on 44 replicated trials, AAC Network produced grain yield similar to AAC Elevate, the highest yielding check, with a protein concentration 0.9 units higher. AAC Network had fair to good winter survival, relatively late maturity, short straw with excellent lodging resistance, and high test weight. AAC Network expressed resistance to stem and stripe rust, moderate resistance to leaf rust and common bunt, and intermediate resistance to Fusarium head blight. In addition to increased grain protein concentration, AAC Network showed improvements in gluten strength and flour water absorption, and it maintained the excellent milling yield and low flour ash attributes of the CWRW wheat class.

Graf, R. J., Beres, B. L., Randhawa, H. S., Gaudet, D. A., Laroche, A. and Eudes, F. 2015. AAC Elevate hard red winter wheat. Can. J. Plant Sci. 95: 1021–1027. AAC Elevate is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar that is well adapted across western Canada and eligible for all grades of the Canada Western Red Winter (CWRW) wheat class. It was developed using wheat×maize-pollen doubled haploid methodology. AAC Elevate was evaluated in the Western Winter Wheat Cooperative Registration trials relative to CDC Osprey, AC Bellatrix, Radiant and CDC Buteo for 3 yr (2011–2013), with Flourish and Moats added as checks in the latter 2 yr. Based on these 35 replicated trials, AAC Elevate produced higher grain yield than all of the checks (103.3–114.4%) and exhibited good winter survival, medium height with excellent straw strength, large kernels, acceptable end-use quality, and broad disease resistance. AAC Elevate expressed moderate resistance to stem rust and common bunt, intermediate resistance to leaf rust, stripe rust and Fusarium head blight, and resistance to colonization by the wheat curl mite vector for wheat streak mosaic virus.
