Seed hull content in field pea was used as a measure of estimating fiber content. Screening of field pea cultivars and germplasm showed a range of 7.2–12% in seed hull content. There was a significant effect of growing sites and years on hull %. No significant correlation was detected between hull % and yield, maturity or seed size but cultivars containing high hull % produced purée with poor viscosity.

Field pea seeds from 10 cultivars grown at two locations in Manitoba in 1986 and 1987 were analyzed for proximate and mineral profiles. Cultivars differed significantly in their level of total protein, crude fat, ADF, and all minerals tested. However, differences were not extremely large and were comparable to European reports. Location-year also had a significant effect on the levels of total protein, ADF, and all minerals tested. In most cases, the warmest location-year produced relatively higher levels of minerals, ash, and total protein, and lower seed yield than the coolest location-year. Key words: Field pea, Pisum sativum L., mineral

The use of fungicides for the control of ascochyta blight in field pea was investigated. Four fungicides were applied to the cultivars AC Tamor and Radley at two locations in Manitoba in 1993 and 1994. Fungicides were applied either once, twice, or three times at 10-d intervals, beginning at the initiation of flowering. Chlorothalonil and benomyl were effective m reducing the severity of ascochyta blight and increasing the yield and seed weight of field pea. The triple application of chlorothalonil resulted in a mean yield increase of 33% over that of the untreated control. Iprodione and propiconazole were relatively ineffective in controlling ascochyta blight. The percentage of seedborne ascochyta was not significantly affected by fungicide treatments. The severity of ascochyta blight was greater in 1993 that in 1994, resulting in greater benefits of chlorothalonil and benomyl applications in 1993.

Field studies were conducted at Morden, Manitoba from 1993 to 1995 to investigate the effect of cultivar selection on the effectiveness of metribuzin {4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one} for wild mustard control in field pea. In check plots, Titan, a cultivar with long vines, suppressed wild mustard growth more than Trump, a cultivar with short vines Wild mustard control with metribuzin was more consistent in Titan than in Trump. Metribuzin at 140 g ha−1 (half the full label rate) reduced wild mustard dry weight by 75 to 99% in plots seeded to Titan and by 38 to 88% in plots seeded to Trump. Results suggest that less herbicide is required for weed management in more competitive field pea cultivars. Key words: Cultivars, competitiveness, metribuzin, wild mustard, Sinapis arvensis, yield

Victoria, a yellow-cotyledon field pea (Pisum sativum L.) cultivar, was licensed in April 1984, will be released to growers in 1986. Victoria is well-adapted to most areas of the Maritime Region, where it outyielded the check cultivars in Regional Cooperative Trials conducted from 1981 to 1983.Key words: Cultivar description, pea (field), Pisum sativum L.

The responses of 335 field pea lines originating from more than 30 countries to mycosphaerella blight caused by Mycosphaerella pinodes were evaluated in inoculated field plots in 1994 and 1995. Seven lines (Baccara, Carneval, Danto, Majoret, Miko, PI273605, and Yellowhead) with low area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) scores were identified. These seven lines, along with the resistant check, Radley, and the susceptible check, 89–195, were further examined for components of partial resistance to the disease in 1996 and 1998. Components evaluated were leaf area with symptoms (LAS), stem area with symptoms (SAS), pod area with symptoms (PAS), and percent seed infection (SI). Differences among pea lines were found in all components. Compared with the susceptible check, Carneval had significantly lower LAS, PAS, and SI in both years and was considered partially resistant to leaf, pod, and seed infection; Danto had significantly lower LAS, SAS, and PAS and was partially resistant to leaf, stem, and pod infection; Yellowhead had significantly lower SAS, PAS, and SI and was partially resistant to stem, pod, and seed infection; Majoret had significantly lower LAS and SAS and was partially resistant to leaf and stem infection; Miko had significantly lower SAS and PAS and was partially resistant to stem and pod infection; PI273605 had significantly lower PAS and SI and was partially resistant to pod and seed infection; and Baccara and Radley had significantly lower SAS and were partially resistant to stem infection only. Plots of Baccara and Yellowhead inoculated with M. pinodes-infected stubble had 10 and 17% reduction in yield, respectively, compared with non-inoculated and fungicide-treated plots and, thus, were considered tolerant to the disease. The remaining lines had yield reductions of 30 to 49%. Key words: Mycosphaerella blight, Mycosphaerella pinodes, Pisum sativum, field pea, partial resistance, disease tolerance

Three visible indicators of seed water content were evaluated to determine the correct time to desiccate field pea. Assessment of the percentage of brown pods, using visual estimates or by counting, were equally effective indicators of seed water content. Counting "dry colored" seeds ("tan" for a yellow cotyledon cultivar; "blue-green" for a green cotyledon cultivar) was less effective. Key words: Field pea, Pisum sativum L., desiccation
