AC Hunter is a high yielding, white-hulled, daylength-sensitive, spring oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivar suitable for the feed industry in Quebec and Ontario. Its hull percentage is higher than is desirable for milling purposes but most of its yield and agronomic characteristics compare favourably with the check cultivars. AC Hunter is resistant to victoria blight (Bipolaris victoriae (Meehan and Murphy) Shoem.), loose smut (Ustilago avenae (Pers.) Rostr.) and to races CR13 and CR36 of crown rust (Puccinia coronata f. sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.). It is susceptible to septoria blotch (Septoria avenae Frank, f. sp. avenae), red leaf (barley yellow dwarf virus) and stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. avenae Eriks and E. Henn.) but shows field reactions similar to the better checks. Key words: Avena sativa L., rust, smut, cultivar description, oat

AC Lotta oat (Avena sativa L.) is a daylength-insensitive, spring-type, naked-seeded cultivar suitable for the feed, food (milling) and mixed-grain (oat and barley) industries in eastern Canada. It outyielded the naked seeded check cultivar Tibor by 10% in the Atlantic region, 19% in Quebec and 34% in Ontario in registration trials conducted in 1989 and 1990. It possesses genes conferring resistance to loose smut (Ustilago avenae (Pers.) Rostr.) and to race CR13 of crown rust (Puccinia coronata Cda. f.sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.) and some races of stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f.sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.) in Ontario. It is susceptible to septoria blotch (Septoria avenae Frank f.sp. avenae) and barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV).Key words: Avena sativa L., daylength insensitive, rust and smut resistance, cultivar description, naked oat

Lee Williams is a high-yielding hulless oat (Avena sativa L.) with good disease resistance and good straw strength. It is well adapted to all of the oat producing regions of western Canada. It carries genetic resistance to several races of crown rust (caused by Puccinia coronata Corda f. sp. avenea Eriks.) and stem rust (caused by P. graminis f. sp. avenae Pers.), loose [Ustilago avenae (Pers.) Rostr.], and covered smut (U. kolleri Wille), and moderate resistance to barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV). Lee Williams has protein and oil levels and a high groat to hull ratio that make it well-suited for livestock feed. Hulless oat may retain a low percentage of hulls after threshing so a high groat to hull ratio is desirable. Lee Williams was supported for registration at the Prairie Regional Recommending Committee for Grains meeting in February 2002.Key words: Oat, Avena sativa L., cultivar description, hulless oat

AC Percy oat (Avena sativa L.) is a spring-type, daylength-sensitive, strong-strawed, tall, late-maturing, naked-seeded cultivar suitable for the feed industry in eastern Canada, especially in the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. Its outstanding features include high grain yield, exceptionally large groat size and high hectolitre weight, and very low percentage of hull in threshed seed resulting from an almost complete expression of the hull-less genes under different environments. AC Percy is resistant to loose smut (Ustilago avenae Pers. Rostr.) and to race CR13 of crown rust (Puccinia coronata Cd. f. sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.) but is susceptible to barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV), septoria blotch (Septoria avenae Frank f. sp. avenae) and stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.).

Boudrias is a high yielding hulless oat (Avena sativa L.) with strong straw and good lodging resistance. It has a higher test weight, a higher percentage of plump groats and a lower percentage of thin groats than AC Belmont, currently the most popular hulless oat cultivar in western Canada. Boudrias has also demonstrated superior crown rust and barley yellow dwarf virus resistance than AC Belmont. In tests across western Canada, it has yielded 20% more grain than AC Belmont while maturing about a day later. Boudrias is well adapted to all regions of western Canada.

Donald oats (Avena sativa L.) is a new daylength insensitive oat cultivar suitable for the feed, food (milling), and mixed grain industry in Ontario. Donald combines the traits of high potential grain and groat yields, large seed size, white hulls, low hull percentage, high test weight, low double oat percentage, early maturity, medium lodging resistance, smut resistance and moderate resistance to barley yellow dwarf virus, but it is susceptible to crown and stem rust and septoria.Key words: Avena sativa L., daylength insensitive, smut resistance, barley yellow dwarf resistance, cultivar description, oats

Jordan is a high-yielding, white-hulled spring oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivar postulated to carry the crown rust resistance combination Pc38, Pc39, and Pc68, which was effective against the prevalent pathotypes of crown rust races on the Canadian prairies at the time of its release. It has very good resistance to loose and covered smut, moderately good resistance to most of the prairie stem rust races (likely due to the presence of Pg2 and Pg13) and moderate tolerance to barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV). Jordan has high kernel weight, high percent plump kernels, and low percent thin kernels. Jordan exhibits high yielding capacity in the oat growing areas of western Canada. Jordan was supported for registration at the Prairie Grain Development Committee Meeting in February 2005. Key words: Oat, Avena sativa L., cultivar description, yield, milling oat

AC Hill oat (Avena sativa L.) is a spring-type, daylength-sensitive, naked-seeded cultivar suitable for the feed and food industries in eastern Canada. It outperformed the check cultivar Tibor in yield, kernel size, hectolitre weight, and percentage of covered seeds in threshed grain. It is resistant to crown rust (Puccinia coronata Cd. f.sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.) race CR13 but is equal to Tibor in loose smut (Ustilago avenae (Pers.) Rostr.) resistance, plant height and susceptibility to septoria (Septoria avenae Frank f.sp. avenae) blotch and barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV). It is more susceptible to lodging and later in heading and maturity than Tibor.Key words: Avena sativa L., rust and smut resistance, cultivar description, naked oat

AC Rebel is a high-yielding, high-protein, white hulled oat cultivar possessing the crown rust resistance genes Pc38 and Pc39. It has good resistance to loose and covered smut, good resistance to stem rust, and moderate tolerance to Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus (BYDV). AC Rebel has good kernel characteristics including commercially acceptable hull and oil content. AC Rebel is well suited for the oat growing areas of western Canada where crown rust is not a problem, in particular to the Brown soil zone of Saskatchewan and Alberta.

Tibor is a new naked-seeded or hulless oat cultivar (Avena nuda L.) suitable for growing in eastern Canada. Compared with the naked-seeded check cultivar Terra, Tibor is higher in groat yield, seed and hectolitre weight and seed protein content. It has excellent straw strength coupled with tall plant height and early maturity, but shows no improvement over Terra in the percentage of covered seeds (approximately 5%) in threshed grain samples or in resistance to diseases such as barley yellow dwarf virus, septoria or stem rust. Tibor is susceptible to prevalent races of crown rust but the disease is slow to develop in field-scale plantings. Tibor is resistant to loose smut and Victoria blight.Key words: Avena nuda L., cultivar description, oat (hulless)

AC Stewart oat (Avena sativa L.) is a spring-type cultivar suitable for the feed, food (milling) and mixed grain (oat and barley) industries in Ontario. This variety combines high grain yield, large kernel size, early maturity and strong straw with disease resistance required for production in Ontario. AC Stewart is very similar in plant type and barley yellow dwarf resistance to its recurrent parent Ogle and, in addition, possesses genes conferring resistance to loose smut (Ustilago avenae (Pers.) Rostr.) and to prevalent races of crown rust (Puccinia coronata Pers. f. sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.) and some prevalent races of stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.) in Ontario.Key words: Avena sativa L., rust, smut and BYDV resistance, cultivar description, oat
