AC Morgan is a high-yielding spring oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivar developed by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Lacombe Research Centre, Lacombe, Alberta and released in 1999. It is described as a medium maturing cultivar with strong straw, plump kernels, high test weight, high protein content, low hull content and high milling yield. It also has low oil content, which is a desirable feature in milling oat cultivars. AC Morgan is well adapted to Alberta and the rust-free areas of Saskatchewan.

Delgold is a superior flue-cured tobacco cultivar developed at the Agriculture Canada Research Station, Delhi, Ontario. Compared to Virginia 115, the cultivar commonly grown for many years prior to 1981, Delgold has superior grade quality and color, lower lamina weight, higher leaf total alkaloids (15–18%) and higher yield (10–12%). In addition, Delgold has a lower level of total particulate matter (TPM) and a lower tar: nicotine ratio than Virginia 115.Key words: Tobacco, Nicotinia tabacum, Nicotina rustica, tar:nicotine ratio, breeding, cultivar description

Boudrias is a high yielding hulless oat (Avena sativa L.) with strong straw and good lodging resistance. It has a higher test weight, a higher percentage of plump groats and a lower percentage of thin groats than AC Belmont, currently the most popular hulless oat cultivar in western Canada. Boudrias has also demonstrated superior crown rust and barley yellow dwarf virus resistance than AC Belmont. In tests across western Canada, it has yielded 20% more grain than AC Belmont while maturing about a day later. Boudrias is well adapted to all regions of western Canada.

Research was conducted at the Brandon Research Station to determine the optimum oil-emulsifier surfactant ratio for each of two oil-emulsifier surfactant pairs for use with tralkoxydim. A series of adjuvants containing 8.5, 17, 34, and 68% emulsifier surfactant (by weight) plus oil were formulated for a petroleum oil (PO)- or methylated seed oil (MSO)-based adjuvant. Tame oats (Avena sativa L.) fresh weight was used to determine percent control as the indicator for phytotoxicity. PO (Sunoco 11 N oil) adjuvants had greater emulsion stability ratings than MSO adjuvants. Emulsion stability was not related to oats control, as MSO adjuvants enhanced tralkoxydim phytotoxicity more than PO adjuvants. Oats control increased as adjuvant volume increased from 0.25 to 2.0% (vol/vol) of the spray solution for either PO- or MSO-based adjuvants. For PO-based adjuvants, the adjuvant containing 34% emulsifier surfactant (by weight) and used at 0.5% (vol/vol) was as effective as the adjuvant containing 17% emulsifier surfactant and used at 1.0%. However, for MSO-based adjuvants, 17% emulsifier surfactant content was as effective as higher emulsifier surfactant content. Oats control did not correlate with the amount of oil in the spray solution. These data indicate that the optimum oil-emulsifier surfactant ratio will vary for each particular oil-emulsifier surfactant pair.

AC Juniper is an early maturing oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivar with high grain yield and good lodging resistance. It has a higher kernel weight, a higher percentage of plump kernels, and a lower percentage of thin kernels than Jasper. Its hull content is significantly lower than Cascade, similar to Jasper and Dumont, and higher than Derby. AC Juniper is well adapted to Alberta and the rust-free areas of western Saskatchewan.

Lightning, a medium-late maturing oilseed flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) was released in 2001 by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Morden Research Station, Morden, Manitoba. This cultivar has high oil content, high oil quality, large seed size, good lodging resistance and high yield when seeded in the Black, Brown and Dark Brown soil zones of the prairies. It is immune to North American races of rust caused by Melampsora lini (Ehrenb.) Desmaz, and resistant to wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht. f. sp. lini (Bolley) Snyder & Hansen. Key words: Flax, oilseed, Linum usitatissimum L., cultivar description
