Abstract
Late maturity α‐amylase (LMA) is known to reduce falling number (FN) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), similar to the effect of preharvest sprouting (PHS) and frost, which can result in grain parcels testing below trading thresholds. Hence, Grains Australia mandates that new Australian wheat cultivars must be at a low risk of LMA expression to receive a milling classification. The multi‐environment trial dataset contained 34 environments not affected by PHS or frost and was analyzed using a five‐factor analytic linear mixed model. Factor 1 accounted for 71.4% of the genetic variation in FN, factor 2 accounted for 8.8%, factor 3 accounted for 5.7%, factor 4 accounted for 3.5%, and factor 5 accounted for 3.1%. The interaction class (iClass) summary method was used to assist in the characterization of crossover genotype‐by‐environment interaction (G × E). Poorer FN performance was best observed in the “ppp” iClass, which indicated a minor, but significant, response to crossover G × E. The environment loadings for factor 1 were associated with mild ripening conditions, characterized by fewer days above 28°C, increased rainfall, and increased variation in daily maximum temperature and relative humidity. Factors 2 and 3 were associated with “cool shock” conditions, where the maximum temperature for 1 day was above 24°C followed by at least three consecutive days below 18°C during the grain fill period. This study provides further evidence of the crossover G × E present for FN associated with LMA, poor FN performance in genotypes that express higher levels of LMA, and the environmental conditions that contribute to LMA expression.
