AEC Mountaineer broadglumed wheatgrass, Elymus trachycaulus subsp. violaceus (Horneman) A. & D. Love, is a cultivar developed for reclaiming and revegetating disturbed sites at high elevations. It is the first cultivar of broadglumed wheatgrass available in Canada. Its primary advantage over other subspecies of slender wheatgrass is its ability to grow rapidly and produce mature seed at elevations as high as 2300 m. Production of mature seed enables plants to propagate, thus increasing plant density and stand longevity in high stress, high elevation environments. Key words: Broadglumed wheatgrass, slender wheatgrass, Elymus trachycaulus, reclamation, cultivar description

Bruce birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) is a 71-clone synthetic variety developed at the Nappan Research Farm, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Nappan, Nova Scotia. Bruce was developed through two cycles of mass selection for plant vigour (top and root growth) and winterhardiness, and one cycle of mass selection for re-growth vigour under grazing. In Atlantic Canada, Bruce produced more forage than the check cultivar Leo during 3 post-seeding years. It was also superior in spring growth with high first-cut herbage yields. Key words: Birdsfoot trefoil, Lotus corniculatus, cultivar description
