Linola™ '947' flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) was the first low linolenic flax cultivar registered in 1993 in Canada. It had very good lodging resistance, was late maturing and produced seed with a very high oil content. In western Canada, '947' had yield similar to McGregor, its recurrent backcross parent. '947' has a yellow seedcoat. Key words: Flax, low linolenic acid, cultivar description

Linola™ 989 is the second low linolenic flax cultivar registered in Canada. In western Canada, Linola™ 989 is significantly earlier maturing than Linola™ 947 and Flanders, and has a significant yield advantage over Linola™ 947 in the Black and Brown soil zones. Linola™ 989 is significantly higher yielding than Flanders in the Black soil zone of Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Both Linola cultivars are yellow seeded. Key words: Flax, low linolenic acid, cultivar description, solin

LinolaTM '1084' is a yellow seeded, low-linolenic acid (solin) flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) cultivar. It is higher yielding than LinolaTM '989' and LinolaTM '947' and has higher oil content and lower total saturated fats than LinolaTM '989' and LinolaTM '947'. It is immune to North American races of rust and is moderately resistant to Fusarium wilt. Key words: Flax, low linolenic acid, cultivar description, solin

McGregor flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) seed was treated with ethyl methanesulphonate (EMS) and the resulting M1, M2, M3 and M4 progeny were screened for linolenic acid mutants, using the half-seed technique. A stable low-linolenic acid (2%) mutant was found in the M4. The low linolenic character is controlled by recessive alleles at two independent loci, apparently the result of a rare double mutation. Key words: EMS, mutation, flax, Linum usitatissimum, fatty acid

Hanley, a medium maturing oilseed flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) was released in 2001 by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Morden Research Station, Morden, Manitoba. This cultivar has medium oil content, very high oil quality, medium seed size, very good lodging resistance, and high yield when seeded in all 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 f. sp. lini Schlecht. f. sp. lini (Bolley) Snyder & Hansen. Key words: Flax, oilseed, Linum usitatissimum L., cultivar description

2126 was developed by Agricore United and combines very high oil content with high yield. In all soil zones of western Canada, the yield of 2126 was similar to the check cultivar, 1084. The 1000 seed weight, oil content and meal protein content of 2126 are significantly higher than 1084. 2126 has higher levels of linoleic fatty acid and lower levels of saturated fatty acids. It is immune to North American races of rust, is moderately resistant to Fusarium wilt and is moderately resistant to powdery mildew. 2126, 2090, 2047 and 1084 are yellow seedcoat, solin cultivars. Key words: Flax, low linolenic acid, cultivar description, solin

Apollo is a low-linolenic acid canola cultivar which produces seed oil with an average linolenic acid content of 1.7%. The low-linolenic oil has a shorter hydrogenation time and greater stability than standard canola oil. Apollo has a significant yield advantage over the low-linolenic cultivar Stellar with higher seed oil and lower seed protein content than Stellar. Apollo is adapted to the southern B. napus canola growing areas of western Canada. Key words: Rape (summer), low linolenic, cultivar description
