Randhawa, H. S. Graf, R. J. and Sadasivaiah, R. S. 2015. AAC Innova general purpose spring wheat. Can. J. Plant Sci. 95: 787–791. AAC Innova is a high-yielding spring wheat cultivar eligible for the Canada Western General Purpose (CWGP) wheat class. Based on 32 site-years of testing over 3 yr in the General Purpose Wheat Cooperative Registration trial (2008–2010), AAC Innova yielded 4% higher than AC Andrew and was 1 d later in maturity. Compared with AC Andrew, AAC Innova had similar test weight and the soft white kernels were slightly larger. AAC Innova was resistant to the prevalent races of leaf rust and was resistant to moderately resistant to stem rust and leaf spotting diseases. It was susceptible to common bunt, loose smut and Fusarium head blight.

AAC Proclaim is a soft red spring wheat cultivar eligible for the Canada Western General Purpose (CWGP) wheat class. Evaluated in 18 trials grown over 2 yr in the General Purpose Wheat Cooperative Registration trial, AAC Proclaim yielded significantly lower than the CWGP checks, AC Andrew and Pasteur, and was 1 and 5 d earlier maturing, respectively. AAC Proclaim was significantly taller than the checks, but had similar straw strength. Test weight was higher than the checks and kernel mass was similar to AC Andrew. Based on visual assessments and deoxynivalenol testing over 3 yr, AAC Proclaim was rated as resistant to Fusarium head blight. It also expressed resistance to the prevalent races of leaf rust and moderate resistance to the prevalent races of stem rust and loose smut. AAC Proclaim showed susceptibility to infection by stripe rust and common bunt.

AAC Awesome is a high yielding spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar eligible for the Canada Western Special Purpose (CWSP) wheat class. Based on 29 site-years of testing over 3 years in the General Purpose Wheat Registration trial (2013–2015), AAC Awesome yielded 14% more grain than AC Andrew, and surpassed yields of Sadash, 5702PR, and Pasteur by 12%, 22%, and 9%, respectively. AAC Awesome had similar maturity, was slightly taller, had higher test weight and larger kernels as compared to AC Andrew. AAC Awesome had excellent levels of resistance to the prevalent races of leaf, stem and stripe rust. It expressed an intermediate level of resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB), common bunt and loose smut. It also expressed tolerance to the orange wheat blossom midge. AAC Awesome is eligible for grades of Canada Western Special Purpose Wheat class.

Based on 26 trials over 2 yr, the cultivar NRG010 yielded similar to the General Purpose checks Hoffman and AC Andrew. NRG010 had significantly shorter stature than Hoffman. NRG010 had a large white kernel intermediate in size to AC Andrew and Hoffman. NRG010 expressed resistance to prevalent races of leaf rust, stem rust and common bunt, and moderate susceptibility to prevalent races of loose smut and fusarium head blight. NRG010 is eligible for the Canada General Purpose wheat class.

Glencross is a hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) adapted to the wheat-growing regions of the Canadian Prairies, particularly where orange blossom wheat midge is a production constraint. Glencross was evaluated in the High Yielding Red Wheat Cooperative Test in 2004, 2005, and 2006. Glencross had grain yield similar to the Canada Western Extra Strong (CWES) checks, Glenlea and CDC Rama, as well as the Canada Western Red Spring check, Superb; however, Glencross was significantly (P < 0.05) earlier maturing than all checks by 3 (Superb) to 4 (Glenlea and CDC Rama) days. Glencross had plant height and lodging scores similar to the CWES checks, Glenlea and CDC Rama, but was significantly taller and had significantly higher lodging scores compared with the CWRS check, Superb. Glencross was moderately resistant to moderately susceptible to leaf rust but was highly resistant to stem rust and loose smut. Glencross showed an intermediate reaction to common bunt and was similar to the susceptible checks for Fusarium head blight. Glencross is the first CWES cultivar with resistance to the orange blossom wheat midge (Setodiplosis mosellana Géhin). Glencross demonstrated end-use quality suitable for all grades of the Canada Western Extra Strong wheat class.

J. Plant Sci. 94: 1297–1302. Peace is a hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) adapted to the shorter-season wheat-growing regions of the Canadian prairies. Peace was evaluated in the Parkland Wheat Cooperative Test in 1999, 2000 and 2001. Peace exhibited grain yield similar to the check cultivars over 2 yr (1999–2000; Neepawa and Roblin) and over 3 yr (1999–2001; AC Barrie and AC Splendor) Peace matured a day earlier than AC Barrie but was 2 d later than AC Splendor over 3 yr of testing (1999–2001) and was a day later than Neepawa and Roblin over 2 yr of testing (1999–2000). Peace had test weight similar to the check cultivars. Peace was moderately resistant to leaf rust and loose smut and resistant to stem rust including the highly virulent Ug99 race of stem rust and common bunt. Peace was moderately susceptible to Fusarium head blight. Peace meets the end-use quality specifications of the Canada Western Red Spring wheat class.

AAC Elie hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has grain yield and time to maturity within the range of the checks. AAC Elie has an awned spike, a low lodging score indicative of strong straw, and a short plant stature typical of a semidwarf. These traits were comparable to the check Carberry. AAC Elie expressed resistance to prevalent races of leaf and stem rust, and intermediate resistance to fusarium head blight, yellow rust, common bunt, and loose smut. Compared with the five Canada Western Red Spring checks, AAC Elie has improved flour yield, and lower flower ash. AAC Elie is eligible for grades of Canada Western Red Spring.
