Frank triticale (× triticosecale Wittmack) was developed at the Agriculture Canada Research Station, Swift Current, Saskatchewan. It was produced by intercrossing genotypes developed by the International Center for the Improvement of Maize and Wheat (CIMMYT), the University of Manitoba and the South Saskatchewan Wheat Program prior to subjecting the segregants to early generation yield-testing procedures. Frank demonstrates major improvements in yield, test weight, and earliness relative to other Canadian triticale cultivars.Key words: Cultivar description, Triticale (spring), × triticosecale Wittmack

The response of ‘Florico,’ ‘Victoria,’ and 'Stan II’ triticale to 2,4-D, dicamba, 2,4-D plus dicamba, diclofop, and thifensulfuron plus tribenuron applied POST during the tillering stage was examined. At rates twice those recommended for application to wheat, Victoria and Stan II were not injured, and injury to Florico was less than 10%. None of the herbicides or combinations adversely affected plant height at maturity, tiller or spike production, grain weight/spike, kernel weight, kernels/spike, yield, or test weight of any cultivar. Cultivars varied in tiller production, height, yield, test weight, kernel weight, and kernels/spike.

Two spring triticale (X-Triticosecale Wittmack) cultivars, Carman and Welsh, and one advanced-generation breeding line were grown under field conditions for 3 yr to study the effects of harvest time and drying method on quality and grade. Plots were harvested at six to seven intervals when kernel water concentration was in the 1000 to 100 g water per kilogram kernel dry weight range. Grain was dried in the field in simulated windrows or artificially dried in a forced-air oven at 40–45 °C. Test weight, 1000-kernel weight, falling number, germination, and commercial grade were determined. Test weight increased with decreasing kernel water concentration at harvest, particularly in the artificially dried treatment. Test weight was greater in the windrowed than in the artificially dried treatment, especially for harvests made at high water concentrations. Harvest at high kernel water concentrations tended to reduce 1000-kernel weight, more so in the windrowed than in the artificially dried treatment. Although falling numbers were influenced by harvest time and drying method, there were no clear trends. Germination was reduced in material cut at a kernel water concentration above 680 g∙kg−1 in 1 of 2 years. Grades were reduced by artificial drying of grain, particularly when harvested at high kernel water concentrations. Grades were unaffected by windrowing at kernel water concentrations of up to 1000 g∙kg−1.Key words: X-Triticosecale Wittmack, test weight, falling number, germination, windrow

Little information is available on the response of high test-weight triticales to seeding rate in short-season growing areas. The objective of this research was to determine the effects of seeding rates of 212–307 seeds m−2 (95–138 kg ha−1) on me agronomic response of Wapiti, the first spring triticale (× Triticosecale Rimpani Wit.) registered in western Canada having a high test weight. Field tests were conducted from 1988 to 1990 at six sites in central Alberta (Botha, Drumheller, Lacombe, Olds, Provost and Trochu). Grain yield was positively related to seeding rate, with a 0.371 ha−1 increase between the lowest and highest rates tested. Test weights and protein content of the grain were affected by seeding fate but no consistent trends were established. Effects of seeding rate on days to anthesis were small (< 0.5 d) and would not be of great concern. Days to maturity responded with a significant quadratic effect, with lateness being associated With the lowest seeding rate. Seeding rate had a negative but linear association with spikelets spike−1, florets spike−1 and kernels spike−1. Only at Lacombe was a reduction in florets spikelet−1 detected with high seeding rates, while at Provost the opposite was found. Kernel weight, plant height, kernels spikelet−1 and floret fertility were not affected by seeding rate. Kernel quality was not negatively affected by the higher seeding rates. Therefore, the recommended seeding rates of Wapiti could be raised from 180–250 seeds m−2 (80–110 kg ha−1) to 270–300 seeds m−2 (120–140 kg ha−1).

The relationships between telomeric heterochromatin on rye (Secale cereale L.) chromosomes, the occurrence of aberrant endosperm nuclei early during endosperm development, and kernel characteristics as seen at maturity were investigated in hexaploid spring triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack). A positive relationship was established between the presence of telomeric heterochromatin on the short arms of rye chromosomes 4R/7R and 6R, and the production of aberrant endosperm nuclei. The removal of telomeric heterochromatin blocks from either 4R/7R or 6R significantly reduced the occurrence of nuclear instability in endosperm, and the effect of losing more than one block of telomeric heterochromatin was additive. A strong relationship was also noted between the absence of telomeric heterochromatin blocks on the short arms of rye chromosomes 4R/7R and 6R, and both higher thousand kernel weight and test weight at maturity. This relationship was also additive depending on whether one or two blocks of telomeric heterochromatin were missing. The absence of telomeric heterochromatin blocks on 4R/7R and 6R was significantly related with increased yield. The results show that amount of telomeric heterochromatin on some rye chromosomes is closely related to the occurrence of aberrant endosperm nuclei early during endosperm development and kernel characteristics at maturity.
