OAC Triumph is a canola quality, summer-rape (Brassica napus L.) cultivar resistant to s-triazine herbicides and tolerant to as-triazinone herbicides. In 22 trials over 3 yr in Ontario it has averaged 2% higher in yield and had higher oil content, better lodging resistance and fewer green seeds at harvest than the s-triazine-resistant cultivar OAC Triton. In 12 trials over 3 yr in Western Canada, OAC Triumph exhibited similar advantages over OAC Triton.Key words: Rape (summer), s-triazine-resistant, cultivar description

Tribute summer rape (Brassica napus L.), registered in 1985, is a triazine-tolerant, canola-quality cultivar. It is early maturing and produces seed with low seed chlorophyll content. Tribute has yield and seed oil content similar to other triazine-tolerant cultivars such as OAC Triton. Tribute is better adapted than OAC Triton to the B. napus growing areas of western Canada because of its earlier maturity. However, it should not be planted on fields which have a history of heavy blackleg infestations. Key words: Rape (summer), triazine-tolerant, cultivar description
